A friend is a member of a local league (which seems to be hugely popular around here). I have no idea what to expect, but the event is called "Back to Cruel" so it sounds promising

We've been going to our local bouts. Good stuff. Next week they have a season-ending double-header.

Fun sport to watch. Sometimes the game can be a bit hard to decipher with the penalties.

It took me a couple bouts to really understand what the hell is going on, but after that, it's pretty good spectating. I have a good friend who's a jammer on the travel team here; I think they're relatively high-ranked this season.

The local bout we went to was very boring. It was probably because the match was so lopsided in favor of one team, I just couldn't really sustain any interest.
The ladies are awesome though!

I had recently heard of Roller Derby locally and because of this post I have been watching a few youtubes of the Burning River Roller Girls League with team names like the Cleveland Steamers and Hard Knockers
