Hello interested Debs-to-be!
This is the RSVP page for our info session on Sunday, December 16, at 4pm at the Roy Wilkins at the River Centre. See here for the map http://www.rivercentre.org/plan/floor-plans
Our goal with this Info Session is simply to answer questions you may have about how Debs functions, provide information about the required gear, and give you a sneak peek of a Debs practice. This info session will be happening concurrent with the last practice of the Fall Session, so you will get a chance to see what practice actually looks like. You WILL NOT be allowed on skates at this time.
We are hoping to get a reasonable idea of the number of people who will be attending the Info Session, so please register if you are interested!
The timeline for Spring 2019 registration is as follows:
November 18 – active Debs can register for Spring Session
December 16 – Spring 2019 Info Session
December 17 - reserve Debs will be invited to register
January TBD - first Spring Session practice (date will be finalized and announced mid-December)

For some general information regarding Debs requirements and practice structure, read below:
COST: Spring Session Debs fee ($75) + required WFTDA insurance ($75) = $150 in total (plus processing fees). If you are affiliated with another league, and will be renewing your WFTDA insurance on your own, it will be just the $75 Debs fee (plus processing fees).
PERSONAL INSURANCE: You must have up-to-date personal insurance (ex: Blue Cross, Medica, etc.).
GEAR: by mid-January, you will need quad skates, helmet (dual certified/multi-impact), wrist guards, elbow pads, knee pads, mouth guard.
PRACTICE SCHEDULE: barring any restrictions from not having space at either the Roy Wilkins, River Center Exhibit Halls A/B, or some off-site location (ex: Wooddale Fun Zone, Skateville, etc.), we intend to hold practice from 3:30pm-6:00pm on Sundays. The practice will look like this:
3:30 5 min Announcements
3:35 10 min Pep / dryland
3: 45 5 min gear on
3: 50 15 Group skate / warm up
4:05 (4 - 25 min rotations for track time)

**We want to emphasize timeliness and a sense of urgency throughout our practice. Please plan on being on time, or 15 minutes early. **
