DevILLish #54

How did you choose your derby name? My grandma helped me pick out my derby name. We were going somewhere and I was telling her some of the ideas I was throwing around, but I didn't love them. I told her that I wanted it to play off my first name, Devon. She threw out DevILLish and it stuck!

What brought you into derby? I loved watching derby on TV and I loved skating. When derby made its resurgence I had a friend playing for Louisville and she told me I should play, but I just didn't have the flexibility for it at the time. In 2015, I went to a fundraiser and won a gift certificate for the Terrorz Skills Camp that was starting in a few weeks. I signed up and immediately fell in love.
Joining roller derby is super intimidating, but the hardest part is walking through the door. Once you are there, you are going to find friends, a support system, and a physical challenge that builds strength and confidence like no other
