The locker room can be a place where you collect your thoughts before a game or have greater discussions with your teammates. Unfortunately, “locker room talk” can bring up negative connotations; but, we want to give this particular phrase a higher meaning. In this section of our website, we will post articles sharing personal experiences aimed at creating a dialogue of deeper understanding and respect within the roller derby community. Welcome to The Locker Room.

Articles posted in The Locker Room are written by individual authors who are writing about their individual experience(s) in hopes to create a greater discussion around certain topics. The views and opinions expressed in these articles are those of the individual authors and do not necessarily represent the views and opinions of RMRG as a league or other individual RMRG members.
