Transwomen now accepted into The Chicago Outfit roller derby league! →

Check it out! The Chicago Outfit is a lovely lovely team, and they’re my favorite team for so many reasons (not just ‘cause they mentor my junior team), but mostly because of how LGBTQ positive they are! :)
“I waited about five years to start playing this sport. I had asked people at other roller derby leagues if transwomen skaters were allowed and was told that the general consensus was that they weren’t. But I want other transwomen, and really any and all women out there, to know that if you want to play this amazing sport there are leagues like The Chicago Outfit that are committed to finding strength through diversity.”
Glad to hear this is changing!
