Dave Growl

Derby name: Dave Growl
Derby Nickname: Dave Growl
Significance of name/number: Dave Grohl is a huge inspiration for me, so yeah.
Derbyversary: I started officiating summer 2018.
Favorite Position: Although it can be challenging, my favorite officiating position is Inside Pack Referee. I like to say it’s the best seat in the house during a game because I get to see everything up close and personal.
Favorite Food: I like food.
Pre-game song: If I need to get pumped up, Foo Fighters. If in need to focus my ref brain, Jerry Garcia. If I just want to have fun, anything with the funk.
Why derby? My spouse got me into it. I love helping to make this sport happen as a ref. Roller derby has become the family sport and I couldn’t ask for a better community of athletes to officiate with.
