This final DMS practice completes the 5 week DMS course to catch new White Stars up on basic strategy. They tested for Orange Star today, and I'm happy to report that 8 out of 9 passed!! Woohoo, they're scrimmage ready!
This last practice in the circuit was led by LT SlamHer, a transfer skater who has been playing derby for years at NoCoast Derby in Nebraska. She's a no-b.s. woman who keeps her head down, works her ass off, and takes feedback like a humble newbie despite her lengthy derby history! This is a chick to admire.
Derby Middle School, Week 5:
Fast feet work, inside outside type of stuff.
We did a single & double pace line having the front 2 people race around the track coming up to the back of the pack using plow or T stops to slow down.
We worked on form & magic circle for the 27/5.
We did positional blocking with 2 blockers 1 jammer.
We did same drill only with 3 blockers 1 O & 1 jammer.
We did fanning out on straight aways & collapsing on corners.
We did suicides working on tomahawk stop turning around.
