If you need a fix of full contact, high octane sports, you should check out what is happening in the sport of roller derby. In the nail biting season opener last month, Derby Liberation Front upset the three year reigning champions, Grave Danger. The next bout of the season promises to be just as intense and hard hitting, as the league championship title is up for grabs.
Bout 1: Derby Liberation Front vs. Throttle Rockets - Rat City Rollergirls
Bout 2: Grave Danger vs. Sockit Wenches
Doors open at 4:30, Opening Ceremonies at 5:30pm. Bouts are held at Key Arena, Seattle Center, West Plaza, 1st Avenue N and 305 N Harrison Street, Seattle, WA 98109 – Map It
Our roller derby skater-athletes span all walks of life, professions, and are active in the communities where they live around the Seattle Area. We are committed to being role models for young women, and support many community organizations like Girl Scouts and YMCA to spread the message of Title IX empowerment through sport. Our members are exceptional women who operate the organization in addition to hours of practice training and community outreach.
