Bionic Baby Doll, Silicon Valley Roller Girls
Today's Derby Girl of the Day is inspiring, because it shows the kind of love for the game and determination one has to not give up or fade away after an injury. Congratulations to Bionic Baby Doll!
She was nominated by her friend Jillian: "Bionic BabyDoll formly known as Broken BabyDoll lives in Northern California and is part of the Silicon Valley Roller Girls. BB Doll has been with the league from the beginning and helped it get its start. Through those years she has had quite the journey. Her biggest challenge was having to have two back surgeries.Even though she could not skate she continued to be part of the league volunteering and helping in any way she could. Eventually she was able to use skating as part of her physical therapy to help build strength and muscle. As her back healed and stamina returned she started reffing with a goal to get back on the team. With lots of work and determination she is happily skating on the teams KillaBytes (which she was Captain 2011 season) and Dot.Kamikazes for SVRG getting bruised up and hip checking!"
