Registration

Register to Become a Glitterdome Gladiator!

The Glitterdome Gladiators are a co-ed junior flat-track roller derby program run by the Denver Roller Dolls.   It is open to all youth age 6 – 17. These young skaters are the future of DRD and of roller derby worldwide.  Our league is proud to help develop the next generation of roller derby athletes!

The Glitterdome Gladiators encourage and enrich young skaters by developing character, confidence, leadership, and social skills.  The program also develops the athletic skills of its participants through fine tuning athletic abilities and/or discovering latent skills.

Skates & Safety Equipment
