She was skating around her Rochester neighborhood alone. She belonged on the derby rink. - I feel I was born to play this game,” says Eva. When no one else created a local league, Eva did it herself. It took Eva nearly three years but she and the other two founding members, Emmeline Spankhurst, and Emasculate 'EM, finally got Roc City Roller Derby private practice space in 2008. In less than a year the league has grown to 40 dues-paying skaters. - I remember feeling satisfied that we had 25 or so players by summer of 2008,” says Eva. “I didn’t think it was a big deal, but other leagues thought it was amazing! We’ve doubled our numbers since then, so we must be doing something right.” - Members come three times a week to play from all over Monroe and Wayne counties. We are graphic designers, graduate and college students, journalists, daycare providers, retailers, security consultants and therapists who help adults and children with speech, socio and chemical dependency challenges. Some of us are moms. Many of us grew up watching derby on TV and wanted to make up a cool name, lace up and play.''

Rather than warming a folding seat in the stands, Eva knew she belonged on the track. Sadly, Rochester offered no such opportunity. When she looked around and saw no one else was working toward creating a league, Eva did it herself. From humble beginnings - and the invaluable help of members like Emmeline Spankhurst and Emasculate ‘Em - Roc City found our first private practice space in 2008 and began adding members.
