Of all the bouts that I've seen, this night was the most ruff and tumble I have witnessed.

It also was full of penalties, but nonetheless one of the most aggressive and hard fought pair of contests.

There will be bruises tonight!

Rat City defeated Silicon Valley Rollergirls by a significant margin and the Rat City All Stars did the same with the Jet City (Everett) team.  The crowd was not so large but gave up continuous cheers and groans during a great evening of fast action sport. 

HIT ME! said the sign, and so I did

If you haven't seen our home town team with their headquarters now in Shoreline, check out their website and treat yourself to a family evening of fun while supporting our team.

You don't have to go to Key Arena to see the action as many events happen right here in town.
