BONNIE THUNDERS Special Guest! - 096 - FUNDAMENTALS (and kittens)

Where do I even begin? Bonnie Thunders has accomplished sooo much in this sport! Teams and players change their strategy and playing style to defend against her jamming. Bonnie makes others into better players by bringing it every day. Bonnie started playing roller derby in 2006 with Gotham Girls Roller Derby, later transferred to her current team, Rose City Rollers, and played with Team USA in the Roller Derby World Cup every year it has happened. Bonnie has competed at the TOP LEVEL of our sport setting a standard for us all for over a decade. Bonnie is goals.

Topics we discuss in this episode include the importance of fundamentals, creating challenges for yourself at practice so you can win games, how her mental toughness has helped her rise to the occasion again and again, and the evolving lessons she has learned over the years about leadership.
