Biggley Smallz

Biggley Smallz (she/they) is a high-level blocker for Montreal’s New Skids on the Block, known for her expertise in blocker-specific training with a strong focus on offensive strategies. She began her roller derby journey in 2012 with Toronto Roller Derby before joining the New Skids in 2016, where she has been a key player in their blocking lineup ever since. Biggley was also part of Team Canada’s 2018 World Cup roster, earning a bronze medal, and is currently training for the 2025 World Cup.

Biggley specializes in breaking down blocker techniques and strategies, whether for individuals or packs, and rebuilding them in a way that challenges skaters at any level. Her approach ensures that skaters develop strong individual skills, which ultimately lead to even stronger team formations. By focusing on both offense and blocker-specific tactics, she equips skaters with the tools they need to elevate their game to the next level.
