You can catch the Jersey Shore Roller Girls at a variety of public appearances in January. Roller derby skaters will represent their sport in appearances ranging from bookstores, to hard rock concerts, to men’s expos.
The local roller derby team is first heading to Borders in Eatontown as the roller derby major motion picture, Whip It, comes to DVD.
The Jersey Shore Roller Girls will be at Borders 7 to 10 p.m. Tuesday Jan. 26 to celebrate the release and to give Borders patrons the chance to learn more about roller derby as depicted in the film. Borders stocks both the new release as well as the young-adult book the movie is based on. The Jersey Shore Roller Girls, Borders and Whip It offer a multi-media look at the sport of roller derby!
Halestorm will rock the Starland Ballroom Friday Jan. 29, one stop on a nationwide tour in support of their major label release. The hard rock band’s song “It’s Not You” is gaining steam in part to a new music video that features the roller derby antics of the Jersey Shore Roller Girls. Skaters hipchecked their way around the band as they performed their single in center court of Asbury Park Convention Hall, which is also the venue for all JSRG home bouts. Come out to the Halestorm concert to support a great band and spot your favorite roller girl (and music video star) in the audience – or mosh pit, of course.
The Jersey Shore Roller Girls will close out January on the roster of an exciting event at Asbury Park Convention Hall – 95.9 WRAT’S annual Men’s Expo. Come meet JSRG skaters at the expo, 1 to 6 p.m. Saturday January 30. The day-long event features everything from a Texas Hold ‘Em tournament, lingerie fashion show and other special guests. JSRG skaters will be on hand (and on skates) posing for pictures and signing autographs.
JSRG will see you at these events…and check in to www.jerseyshorerollergirls.net for more information on 2010 season away and home bouts.

Whip It? We're your local roller derby league!
We’re your local roller derby league!
A major motion picture (“Whip It,” which was out in theaters Oct. 2 and will release to DVD Jan. 26) directed by Drew Barrymore and starring Ellen Page centers on the sport of roller derby.
The sport is back, and local women from the Jersey Shore have been putting their sweat and blood, and heart and soul to see the Jersey Shore Roller Girls roller derby league thrive over the last two and a half years. The Jersey Shore Roller Girls are thrilled to see roller derby get the attention it deserves, in the form of a major motion picture and ensuing media attention. Whip It viewers may be asking themselves, “Is there a roller derby league near me?” and the answer is a resounding YES!
There are roller derby leagues in nearly every state in the U.S., and the Jersey Shore Roller Girls represent the Jersey Shore – Monmouth and Ocean counties as well as northern Atlantic and southern Middlesex areas.
Local women can join JSRG! We hold new skater practices every Wednesday, 9-11 p.m. in the Jackson Roller Magic rink.
Come see our amazing bouts. JSRG’s home games are played in Asbury Park Convention Hall throughout the year. Tickets are available at www.jerseyshorerollergirls.net
Roller derby doesn’t just exist on the silver screen, but in your own backyard. The Jersey Shore Roller Girls defend the Jersey Shore and welcome you!
