Jersey Shore Roller Derby

What a way to end the home season!! The Black Heart Beauties took the win over the Rum Running Rebels, but we all had the BEST time!

A huge thank you to all of our fans who came out yesterday and supported us all season! Thank you to the Officials who made yesterday possible and all of our volunteers! We're still riding high on all the good vibes.

You can catch us in North Jersey skating against Garden State Roller Derby in November. Otherwise we'll be back at home in the spring!! 💙🖤💙🖤

The correct answer is....

Yes! At some point, all of these have been Jersey Shore Blue!

Come see us on Saturday. We're playing as our home teams and we just might be featuring yet another blue 😆

OUR GAME TODAY IS CANCELED

Unfortunately we had to cancel our game today. The air quality from the wildfires is resulting in unhealthy conditions and the impending storms have us under a flood warning.

Out of an abundance of caution we are canceling.

We are refunding all advanced ticket sales.

Our next game is scheduled for August 15th, and barring any natural disasters we'll be skating then!

Everyone is welcome on our team, no matter what. Following the US Supreme Court’s decision yesterday, we want to be as clear as possible: skaters of any marginalized gender — especially trans women — are welcome in and encouraged to join Jersey Shore Roller Derby.

It is important to note the decision in West Virginia v. BPJ only pertains to the 27 states that currently ban trans athletes from playing school sports in line with their gender.

As such, it does not affect either New Jersey’s laws and policies protecting the rights of trans athletes and students to play on the correct teams nor WFTDA’s expansive gender-inclusion policy. Both NJ and WFTDA have long allowed trans, nonbinary, and gender diverse athletes to compete without issue.

However, we know the mental and emotional damage of this decision will not be confined to the states with these bans. Trans people, athletes or otherwise, need to hear they have a place in our communities and broader public life. Roller derby is one such source of camaraderie, friendship, and support for so many people cast aside elsewhere by society. We are grateful that our league can provide that space for so many down the shore, skaters and non-skaters alike.

We will never stop being loud and proud about including and empowering our trans teammates.

In solidarity,

JSRD
