A Shrewsbury based non-profit, all-gender roller derby team run by its members for its members. If you can't skate, we'll teach you to skate.

We pride ourselves on providing a fun, friendly, and inclusive environment. We train at all levels, from skating basics to derby drills and small-scale games. We're a friendly roller derby team based in Shrewsbury, Shropshire. If you can skate but can't play roller derby, we'll teach you to do that instead! We are currently a club for 18+ but it doesn't matter what your age, s*x or fitness level i

Suffering from Success… For the last few months we have ran Newbie sessions every month to increase accessibility for people looking to give Roller Derby a go with us.

We are now at maximum capacity for Newbies and are going to have to put a pause on New Intakes for the next couple of months while we focus on developing our current Newbies.

If you are interested in giving it a go, please still reach out and we can put you on the waiting list and get in touch when we have space on our Newbie Program.

Love from Evo x

In 2026, we’re changing how we coach our team, with a focus on bringing more stability and clearer direction. As part of this, we can now say with certainty that our open skates will always take place on the first Wednesday of the month (which, for January, is just two days away!).

Please note that these sessions are not suitable for beginners, and no coaching will be provided. Open skate is intended as an unstructured session for skaters who are confident skating independently.

It’s £10 to come along, so whether you want to work on some skills or just mess around on wheels, drop us a message and let us know if you’re coming.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask us!

We'll be there! Spot us on skates and in our signature red and black colours.

We'd also love to see our past members repping the love for Evo with old jerseys/colours.

See you in the market square this time next week for Shrewsbury Pride 2025!

Build up starts at 11am with the march at 12 noon 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💖
