Madison, Wis. – Madison Roller Derby is proud to support four of its skater members in their quest to represent three different teams at this years’ Roller Derby World Cup, scheduled for July in Innsbruck, Austria. 

Roller derby is an all-volunteer, pay-to-play sport and so the league is humbly asking our community to help us raise funds to support these world-class athletes on their international journey!

Anyone can donate via our joint GoFundMe here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-madison-roller-derby-skaters-get-to-the-world-cup - all money raised will be split evenly between the four skaters.

Who’s going?
Amperslam (#150) will be skating for Team Japan Roller Derby
Hawai’i KO (#808) and Hello Sailor (#847) will be skating for Team Philippines Roller Derby
Karma (#614) will be skating for Indigenous Rising Roller Derby
