Rollerderby Bout - Saturday September 8th 2007 - 16:25 22 Aug 07
Since their first training session in April 2006 when Roller Derby was initially introduced to the UK, the London Rollergirls have been training hard to get this unique, grass-roots sport off the ground.
After much blood, sweat and yes, even some tears, the London Rollergirls are now ready to unleash this amazing sport onto the unsuspecting public of London and are happy to announce that their inaugural public exposition “THE GREAT ROCK ‘N’ ROLLERDERBY SWINDLE” will be taking place in the early evening of Saturday 8th September.
The Doors will open at Tottenham Green Leisure Centre (1 Philip Lane, Tottenham, N15 4JA) at 4pm, with bouting to commence at 5pm. As with all roller derby bouts, there will be music, half time entertainment; provided by the fabulous Actionettes, and of course some audience participation will be required. An afterparty to celebrate with the London Rollergirls will follow at the conclusion of the bout, the details of which will be available on the London Rollergirls website.
Tickets are £7 pre-sale, and available from the London Rollergirls, Wacky Haircutters (St Anne’s Court, Soho ph: 020 7494 3101), and Blood Brothers Tattoo (Holloway Rd – ph: 0207 619 0345). A limited number of tickets will be available at the door only if the event doesn’t sell out in advance. Please contact the London Rollergirls via their website www.londonrollergirls.com, MySpace www.myspace.com/londonrollergirls, or email tickets@londonrollergirls.com for ticket details.
As it will be the first public exposition of roller derby in the UK, this is an exciting step forward for the sport, and the London Rollergirls hope you can make it!
