02.01.2022 Always Was, Always Will Be. NAIDOC Week 2020 acknowledges and celebrates that our nation’s story didn’t begin with documented European contact whether in 1770 or 1606 - with the arrival of the Dutch on the western coast of the Cape York Peninsula. NAIDOC 2020 invites all Australians to embrace the true history of this country a history which dates back thousands of generations.... It’s about seeing, hearing and learning the First Nations’ 65,000+ year history of this country - which is Australian history. We want all Australians to celebrate that we have the oldest continuing cultures on the planet and to recognise that our sovereignty was never ceded. Always Was, Always Will Be. For local events and information about NAIDOC and head to https://www.naidoc.org.au/get-involved/2020-theme

02.01.2022 This is a drill called Hard Border inspired by Mark McGowan Teams of two blockers represent WA and the rest of Australia. The jammer is Clive Palmer. As he tries to cross the border each side try to block him out of their zone. Clive Palmer can be substituted for a person refusing to wear a face mask when required or a rogue traveller crossing into WA and absconding from hotel lockdown ... fun games. ... #roller #derby #scrimmage #drills #zoneplay #hardborder #markmcgowan #rollerderby
