BEIJING ROLLER DERBY

Skaters, coaches and refs are all arriving for this fun filled weekend. Here is our final picture of the week as we count down to our final days for the International HeforShe Roller Derby Invitational. Picture of the week is taken by James Hanlon and attached are the runners up.If you are in Beijing May 3rd and have your tickets, doors open at 6:30 and event starts at 7pm. See you there! 

We are weeks away from the International HeForShe Roller Derby Invitational. Beijing Roller Derby will skate for equality at Ditan Gymnasium to show our solidarity with the HeForShe campaign. In collaboration with UN Women and joined by fellow skaters and trainers from Shanghai, Bangkok, the US and Japan, we're incredibly excited to first invite you, our friends, family and fans, to the first event of its kind in Asia!

In a world where sports are typically dominated by male athletes and spectators, BRD now invites you to be part of a female-led presence in international sport.

Another week of hits, blocks and some serious derby. We've got a brand new photo of the week to share! This week's photo is by Lynn Lin, who did a great job of capturing us in action!

As we build up to our big event with the UN Women and beyond, we're skating hard, training harder and giving everything we've got to make it happen in Beijing--and we want you to be part of the journey!

Each week, BRD will share a selected photo from our weekly training sessions, as voted by the team. Here's our very first BRD Photo of the Week, as captured by Sherry!

And while you are here, check out the other contenders for BRD's featured picture of the week.
