Try-outs for the Pennsylvania All-Stars:

The Pennsylvania All-Stars is an elite roller derby team that represents Pennsylvania's finest players from all over the state. The team is comprised of skaters from a minimum of 5 different leagues throughout Pennsylvania.

While players are chosen based on skill and their ability to be a team player, we also strive to maintain balanced representation.

Our mission is to have a team of strong women whose characteristics are those of leaders in their leagues, skaters who encompass the attributes of a high-level teammate and those willing to be challenged.

As a team member of the Pennsylvania All-Stars, you will be surrounded by a community that lives the spirit of "Any Time, Any Where, Any Rules." We continue to challenge ourselves by playing multiple rules sets, high-level competitors, and competing on both flat and banked tracks.

We hold try-outs once a year via a scrimmage setting. To be considered for the team, you must be registered. Registration closes February 17, 2016.

Try-Outs:

-Open to any woman, 18 years of age or older, who is active on a Pennsylvania-based roller derby team.

-IMPORTANT: Any skater who is a potential danger to other skaters due to their lack of skill will be immediately asked to leave the track and they will not receive a refund. Although skaters must have passed the WFTDA minimum skills test as a baseline, only skaters who have advanced skills should try out for this team.

-In order to be considered for the 2016 Pennsylvania All-Stars, you must register before the deadline of Feb 17, 2016.

-If you cannot make the try-out, but still want to be considered, you must register and submit a video(s) of your 2015 performances for consideration (contact paallstars@gmail.com for more details).

-Please bring a black shirt and a white shirt with your NUMBER on the back of the shirts. This number will be your main try-out identifier.

-Please make sure to have plenty of water.

About 50 skaters will be picked from the total applicant pool from try-outs for two teams. There will be a minimum representation of 5 different leagues. There is no cap to the maximum number of leagues represented, but there may be a cap on the maximum number of skaters allowed from any one league. The new 2016 team will be announced by Sunday March 20, 2016.

Team members will be selected by the three Pennsylvania All-Stars captains (V-Diva from Philly Roller Girls, Groll from Steel City Derby Demons, and Lurz Lemon from Brandywine Roller Girls). Selections will be based on knowledge of the game, team work, skills, experience,
communication, and time commitment. All skaters trying out must be willing to play all rules sets: inclusive of MRDA, USARS and RDCL.
