Bonnie 'N Collide chases down magic pony!
Our rosters were announced and we just had our 1st team practices. Stay tuned for the unveiling of Team Names, Rosters, League Logo, Team Logos, and our bouting schedule! We have tons of info about to hit you in the face any day now! Booya!
RRRD’s Prince County Twisted Sisters have joined the Capital One Boys and Girls Club Race For Kids. The race happens on June 2nd and they could really use you support to raise money for their local Boys and Girls Club. You can pledge online here.
Bonnie ‘N’ Collide is Charlottetown Original. She joined Red Rock ‘N Roller Derby on Day 1 and is, to this day, one of the most committed skaters. She is a born skater who is quick in her quads with a hit that sends ‘em flying! Bonnie always offers support to any struggling skater and is a real sweetheart. We love her dedication, drive, and dedication to roller derby.
AB: Bonnie ‘N Collide, your derby sisters (and bros!) adore you so much that we’ve named you our May Girl! How does being voted Derby Girl of the Month inspire you?
BnC: I’m very honored, and it lifts me up to try even harder. Thank you all so much~!
AB: What brought you to roller derby?
BnC: My love for roller skating as a kid. Was worried about the contact of the sport, but apparently I’m good at it :)
AB: We have recently integrated some new skaters (who passed fresh meat training) into our regular league practices. Is there any advice that you can offer to these new skaters?
BnC: It’s simple. DON’T GIVE UP! Our new skaters are awesome and I look forward to getting to know them. If you need help with anything you have some awesome league members always there.
AB: What part of your derby “uniform” really exposes your alter ego?
BnC: I’m usually sporting a bandana to absorb sweat from my head :P I like to have skulls as much as possible. Usually wearing my “skull hands” booty shorts, skull knee socks, skull tape. Itching to do some shopping and looking forward to official uniforms!!
AB: What’s your favorite derby position?
BnC: When we first started I was sold on the Jammer position, now I like being a blocker!
AB: Do you enjoy outdoor skating? Why or why not?
I love skating outside, so nice to have beautiful PEI scenery and fresh air while skating.
AB: Who is your favorite roller derby player?
BnC: Suzy Hotrod, Bonnie D. Stoir is very inspiring. After watching the World Cup I fell in love with Iron Wench, she is the bomb!
AB: So, you’re covered in tattoos! Got and future ink on the horizon?
BnC: Always think about more ink! Who knows, a Derby tattoo might be something I need ;)
AB: While we all drool over your awesome skating, is there any skill that you feel you need to work on?
BnC: I definitely have to learn to fall instead of trying to recover from being hit cause then I end up being Bambi on speed and come crashing down and hurting myself lol.
AB: We are about to form teams and begin our first competitive season; what are your goals and aspirations for 2012?
BnC: I’m nervous about our first bout and excited at the same time. It’s goin to be a rush I imagine. I would like to surprise people “as a team” with how far we’ve come along as a league and kick some ass!!

Can you believe it? Last night, our first class of Fresh Meat from the Charlottetown Learn to Skate Program graduated! Many have passed their minimums and many are just about to pass. This first bouting season is going to absolutely rock ‘n roll!
Presenting…our very first Derby Girl of the Month!
Updated:
Fresh Meat practice is CANCELLED for Summerside & Charlottetown due to terrible weather conditions. It’s Fresh Meat, kids, not Dead Meat!
It is a fresh new year for us! We just had our first AGM and are in the middle of planning our first season.
We have lots of new members, as you will see in our members section (photos coming soon!). Also, we are in formation mode for a West Isle team!
Did you know our logo is almost complete? Edge of your seat is the place to be…
