Registration opens April 1st 2025

Albany Roller Derby offers three roller skating programs and an Officials (Referee/NSO) pathway.

We can provide skates, helmets, and safety equipment in all programs for loan for no cost.

We are a registered KIDSPORT Club. this can cover up to $500 per year of kids’ sporting costs.

*Please apply for your KIDSPORT code and email it to us. Then we will let you know how to proceed with the registration

None of our programs use inline/blades. Please do not wear these to your class. It’s like taking a soccer ball to AFL practice, yes it’s a ball, but they move and are used in different ways.

All programs run for a 20-week season. Starting May 1st to September 25th. And are led by experienced coaches who hold:

  • Level 1 in Roller Derby coaching (Skate Victoria)

  • Working With Children Check

  • First Aid and CPR qualifications.

If you require financial support with your membership, contact us for instructions on how to proceed with registration.

Transferring skaters from any club are welcome all season. Please contact us for more information.

Supporters are welcome to join all year round!
