Keep Banked Track Derby Alive In Florida!
Donation protected
Deadly Rival Roller Derby needs your help!
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have cancelled our upcoming bouts and stopped group training to do our part and help #flattenthecurve in St. Petersburg.
While it breaks our hearts to be away from Roller Derby during this stressful time, we knew it was in the best interest of our skaters, referees, volunteers, and, most importantly, our fans, to shutter the Slayground’s doors for now. At the moment, we are uncertain when we will be able to re-open those doors and get back to doing what we love: beating the crap out of each other for all to see!
We rely heavily on our dedicated fans to ensure that we are able to continue to operate, and the loss of income has really hit us hard.
Deadly Rival is Florida’s only Banked Track Roller Derby Team. We are a volunteer, skater-run operation that relies on our public events, merchandise sales, and donations to bring in the majority of our monthly revenue. If we are unable to make our rent, our Deadly family will be forced to shut down, move out, and find another venue, which is no easy task! Not to mention that we truly love our venue and all of the memories it holds for us.
We’re asking for your help to keep the roof over our heads while we anxiously wait to get our skaters back on the track. In order to do that, we set our donation goal to $30,000 to help us pay our rent for the next few months until we can bout again!
Your donations are greatly appreciated, we cannot thank you enough. Without support from our community, fans, and dedicated volunteers, Deadly wouldn’t exist.
Please help Deadly Rival stay alive and stay #DRRDstrong!
Additionally, if you are the one of the first 100 people to donate $20 or more, you will receive a handmade, limited edition Zine put together by our skaters. This is a creative mixed-media publication reflecting our community, that will show you what you are supporting and just how much your contribution means to us.
Many of us wouldn’t be the people we are today without Deadly Rival. Your support through these hard times means more to us than you could even know. (Zines will ship Mid-May)
**Please note that we are not a non-profit and donations made are not tax-deductible.. though they are greatly appreciated. :)**
