Who this list is for
This roller derby practice packing list is for skaters heading to league practices. Whether you are new to derby or a returning player, this list helps you pack every piece of required gear and personal equipment. It is especially useful if your league enforces safety equipment checks or if you practice at multiple venues.
How to use this list
Start by reviewing your league’s required gear. Lay out your skates, helmet, mouthguard, wrist guards, elbow pads, and knee pads first. Next, add practice clothes—something you can move in and don’t mind getting sweaty. Pack a water bottle and a towel for breaks. Toss in a skate tool for adjustments and spare laces in case of a break. Double check your league practice details so you know where and when to go.
Common mistakes
Forgetting a mouthguard or helmet is a common reason skaters sit out drills. Skipping wrist guards or knee pads can get you benched for safety violations. Many skaters forget a skate tool, making on-the-fly adjustments impossible. Not bringing water means you’ll be scrambling to borrow or buy some. Avoid showing up in jeans or non-athletic clothes—stick to gear you can move in.
What is on this list
The essentials are Skates, Helmet, Mouthguard, Wrist guards, Elbow pads, Knee pads, and Practice clothes. You’ll also want Water, a Towel, a Skate tool, Spare laces, and your League practice details. Go through your gear bag and cross off what you already have packed. This way, you won’t double-pack or leave something behind.
Before you go
Check your equipment for damage or missing pieces. Make sure your skates are in good working order and your pads are clean and dry. Confirm practice time and location with your league. Charge your phone if you need directions. Arrive early enough to gear up and warm up. After practice, air out your pads and wash your practice clothes so everything is ready for next time.
