Roller Derby is a full-contact sport played on an oval track on quad-skates, that has it all—speed, stamina, toughness, adrenaline, sweat, bruises, occasional tears, respect, communication, support and, above all, team spirit and a lot of fun. Think rugby without the ball.
In May 2014, Rhine Rebels Basel met for the first time, determined to bring roller derby to Basel. And, in true Derby-spirit, they did it all themselves—training, coaching, promotion, and management. Since those early days, they have grown to 25 members and counting, welcoming skating and non-skating Derby enthusiasts and those to-be. On this Saturday, they will be playing a home game at St. Jakobshalle. In roller derby, matches are called “bouts," and everyone is invited to come and enjoy this adrenaline-pumping, high-intensity sport when they celebrate 10 years of Roller Derby in Basel.
