Though stress from a sport outweighs the enjoyment, players of the El Paso Roller Derby Team (EPRD) let the good times roll. Although the sport is fierce, players have found a family within the team. One of the redeeming qualities of the EPRD family is its welcoming inclusivity.
A sport that concurrently has men, women and nonbinary people is sometimes not easily found. Here to challenge the standards, the roller derby team has been active since 2010, initially starting as an all-women team. EPRD expanded the range of players in 2023, to include those who wanted to be a part of the skating family.
