Derby Name- Trey La’Trash Coach Extraordinaire of the All Stars and French Broads Joined BRRG 2009 as a referee Played sports since the age of 4, skated since childhood. Saw derby at a bike rally and fell in love with it, found it was something I could do with my sister Cussed’Em ChopHer and we were able to have something in common. |
| Derby Name- Lil Bit Job- Bench Coach I met and fell in love with BRRG in during a recruitment in the winter of 2009. I feel like Ive done it all with Blue Ridge. Ive been a Fearleader, an NSO, and a committee chair. Ive even been Fresh Meat and practiced with the team for a season, but alas, never became scrimmage or bout eligible. Prior to this season I began ref training when I was asked if I would like to give bench coaching a try. Would I! When Im not doing stuff for BRRG, I am skating for and helping run my OTHER roller derby league. On Mondays I see my husband. Who has learned a lot about cooking. Skates: Sure Grip Rebel Invader with DA45 plates, Atom G-Rods with Poison pushers. likes: sewing, music, dancing, otters, shiny things, napping, kindness, the interwebs dislikes: frogs, hypocrites, caraway seeds, humidity, jerks |
