November 9, 2015 By Badfish Leave a Comment

The 2015 roller derby season is over but that doesn’t mean we stop swimming! Badfish Roller Derby will be busy with a handful of off-track events and butt-kicking practices. See the details below:

Off Season Practice

Still reeling from a fast, furious and fun 2015 bouting season, our Badfishes cannot get enough track time. Weather permitting; we will be holding regular practices Sundays, Wednesdays, and
Thursdays with the exception of the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year holidays.

Giving Back

We’re pleased to announce this holiday season we will be collecting new unwrapped toys, sports equipment, clothes and/or school supplies to be given to the LBFD Spark of Love Toy Drive for disadvantaged families in our community.

Donate goods and practice for free

Drop-in practice fees for non-BFRD members will be waived if you bring in one of the aforementioned items valued at $10 or higher.

Parades!

Catch us skating along East Second Street in the 33rd Annual Belmont Shore Christmas Parade on Saturday, December 5th (details here). Also, you’ll find our fishes rolling along Daisy Avenue the following

Introducing Badfish Roller Derby – Long Beach’s only roller derby league, run by skaters, for skaters!

February 1, 2014 By BlockLobster Leave a Comment

Badfish Roller Derby (BFRD) was founded in late 2013 by a group of enthusiastic, dedicated men and women who are determined to see roller derby succeed in Long Beach, California. Our city is vibrant, colorful, and diverse, just like we are, so it’s obvious that roller derby belongs in Long Beach!

Join us! BFRD members come from all over the world and from all walks of life; it’s not uncommon to see a carefree rainbow-haired mom-of-two skating along with a straight-laced cynic and one of our country’s finest military vets. BFRD embraces skaters of all levels – derby is a lifestyle, not just a game, so let us train you, convert you, and ROCK YOUR WORLD.
