League Member & Fresh Meat of the Month – March 2009

League Member of the Month – Thunder Lips

Thunder Lips is an amazing Chair lady. Our meetings are flawless, her tasks are always done, and she is an awesome coach to boot. She’s caring and understands hardship and always has good advice with whatever the issue is, whether helping someone in the league personally or the fact you can’t get t-stops she’s got you covered. We’re lucky to have her in our league!

I nominate Lips for pushing us fresh meat so hard! She is always helping us get better by encouraging us every day to go faster, hit harder, skate lower, and push farther!

I think I’ve received instruction on how to do crossovers from every member of the DDG, but lips was the first to take the time to skate with me, and really figure out what I was doing wrong. If it weren’t for her, I don’t think it ever would have clicked!

I nominate Thunder Lips! She is always positive, encouraging, and hard working. She has the leagues best interests at heart and has always given her all; be it in her coaching, her “captainship”, and her dedication to the game, Thunder Lips is a derby girl that we all can look up to. It has been a true joy skating with her for the past two years. I would also like to add that Ms. Thunder Lips is a versatile player who will try her hand at blocking, pivoting, and jamming without complaint or apprehension, she gets the job done. She is a true team player and motivator.

Fresh Meat of the Month – Donna
For FMOM I nominate Donna because she has come so far, and she works really hard every practice and can put a smile on anyone’s face! Also she is one of our sponsors! Plus, she ran into a wall twice in 5 minutes and was able to get up! That alone deserves fresh meat of the month.

She’s progressed so far so fast! she gives her all at practice and does it with a smile on her face!
