About Me

Right Place, Right Time: That’s how I became a women’s roller derby coach. Simple as that.

My skaters call me Danielson! (you have to say it like Mr. Miyagi for proper effect).  I have the privilege of coaching the Bombshells of the Arizona Derby Dames and the league’s All-Star travel team, The Hot Shots.  I also serve as the league’s statistician. 

As AZDD enters its second banked track season (6th season overall), I’m inclined to help build the banked track roller derby hype in Arizona by sharing my stream of consciousness as it pertains to roller derby. My girlfriend, Lady Lawless, is the team’s captain so the subject of roller derby comes up quite often in our household. I enjoy analyzing the game and its athletes, so if you want into my head, have a read. But be warned; whether its undying praise or unfiltered criticism, it all comes out on these pages. Thanks for reading, derby fans!

    I would love to have you read over the simple MADE rules and let us know what you think. After years of playing WFTDA and OSDA… we found we liked how MADE is streamlined. With a 5 page rule set anyone in derby can pick it up. We’ve played it for 2 seasons now and are incredibly impressed with the FUN we have and the ease with which the crowd now grasps derby. So many of the leagues in our state are impressed as well so we’re all having MADE games this year.
    Check it out and let me know what you think.
    Yours in Derby,
    Durga
