Jade Phoenix

#336

She/Her

Reason behind name and number: 

Name: It's all about divine timing. I wanted to join derby for years but kept making excuses. Then a good friend posted the bootcamp on their Facebook and I knew it was time. Jade is her favorite color. Phoenix is for starting over, rising from the ashes, trying something new.

​

Derby history:

Quad City Rollers 2023-present

​

Position:

Sometimes I jam, sometimes I block

​

Other sports and hobbies:

I pretend to be creative.

​

Injuries:

I've taken a skate to the face, multiple to the same spot on my right leg, pulled my quad, and sprained my ankle so far.

​

When I’m not playing derby I’m a:

Gen Ed para at a k-8 school, dealing with behavior.

​

Get Pumped Up Song:

Whatever has a good beat, I'm not picky and just love music.

​

Fun fact:

I have a degree in animal science.

​

My greatest derby accomplishment is:

Hitting a jammer out of bounds.

​

If I could tell myself one thing when I started playing, I would say:

Don't compare your skill level to someone who has been playing for years. Everyone progresses at their own level; derby can be tricky but it's worth it so just keep at it.
