Our WFTDA Travel Team, the Gainesville Roller Rebels All-Stars, did particularly well this year, winning all of their games. This resulted in the team jumping 60 spots in the rankings and ending their competitive season ranked at 213!

Not to be outdone, two of our amazing officials took some big steps this season. GRR Head Referee, O. Yoshi Dint, refereed his 200th bout and lent his reffing talents to the WFTDA International Playoffs in Seattle. And our amazing Head NSO, Bouncing Bite-Her, became a WFTDA Recognized Non-Skating Official, demonstrating the passion and dedication she has poured into this role since she started. Congratulations Yoshi and BB!

And of course, none of what we accomplished this year could have happened without the incredible backbone of our wonderful volunteers! Your hard work made all of our successes this season possible!

Thank you for a great season Gainesville, we’ll see you in 2020!
