This weekend I went to Stockholm to discuss the future of Swedish Roller Derby, along with my fellow league presidents.
I think we all learned a lot about the opportunities we have to really put derby on the sports map in our country and to grow and evolve as a movement.
It was really fun to get to know all the people behind the leagues and to lay the foundation for our future together!
Some historical decisions were made, with the main point being that all leagues affiliated with Skridskoförbundet will follow the rules and standards set by the WFTDA. We're also going to implement a standard for training and minimum skills to ensure that all leagues get on the same level.
We all got to share our expectations and goals and I've got to say that we are blessed with a bunch of really motivated and driven ladies in this country! RF won't know what hit them!
We also got to have a nice evening together and laugh about our lost past lives and complete lack of spare time. We shared some hilarious stories of spills and rookie mistakes. And we who are in coaching positions shared tips, tricks and heartaches.
I am really looking forward to our next meeting with Swedish Derby in july! Love to all of you detbygirls out there!
