Captain Caitlin O’Carroll is confident about the game, “We have refined our training focuses and intensity for this season with a view to climbing the European rankings and can’t wait to put all the amazing things our 2024 roster have been working on over the last few months into action.”
The event is a double header with the second game seeing challenger teams from friendly rivals Auld Reekie and Glasgow Roller Derby vying for victory.
Alongside the main event of skating, expect the usual interval games and raffles as well as local vendors and a chance to buy team merchandise. Grab a burrito from Bonnie Burrito and enjoy homemade cakes from the cake stand!

We’re delighted that our very own Gerry Waterston (Ger) attended the Volunteer Edinburgh ‘Inspiring Volunteer’ awards ceremony on the evening of 7th June at the City Chambers, to accept an individual volunteering award in the category of ‘Sports Volunteering’. Presented by Robert Aldridge Rt. Hon. Lord Provost of the City of Edinburgh, the evening was a celebration of volunteers across Edinburgh.
Ger has been an absolute staple as our Finance Committee Spokesperson over the past few years and her contributions helped Auld Reekie come out of the pandemic in good enough shape to continue and grow and most importantly to get back on skates!
Well done Ger!!
