Level Up Roller Derby Camp is built for skaters with at least three months of league or team experience who are ready to sharpen their game. This camp focuses on developing derby skills and strategy across two levels, with plenty of gameplay and a touch of creative fun mixed in. Level 2 offers limited contact, while Level 3 is full contact. Skaters will be assessed and placed in the level that best matches their current skills and drive to grow—so everyone can push their limits and level up. 
Tomorrowland Junior Roller Derby feels no one should be excluded due to economic status.
