RAT CITY ALL-STARS VS ROCKY MOUNTAIN & RAIN OF TERROR VS PORT SCANDALOUS

RAT CITY ALL-STARS VS ROCKY MOUNTAIN & RAIN OF TERROR VS PORT SCANDALOUS THIS WEEKEND AT SOUTHGATE ROLLER RINK!

The Rat City Rollergirls and Denver's Rocky Mountain Rollergirls have a lot in common. Founding members of the WFTDA. Top ten teams that came out of the now-defunct West Region (Rat is ranked 6th and Rocky sits at 8). R's and G's in the team acronyms. A fondness for oysters (though I think the ones from Colorado are a bit different) And this Sunday, June 23, they'll share 60 minutes on the track in a special VIP bout at Southgate Roller Rink.

The last time the two teams met was on the final day of the WFTDA Regional Playoffs last September in California. Rat City took the W in a hard fought game, earning 5th place in the tournament. However, rosters for both teams have evolved since last season, so, as always, it's anybody's game. This season's new faces to the Rat City All-Star team include K. Beezy, Michelle Gilroy, Rumble Fist, and Sintripetal Force, and returning to the RMRG Fight Club's roster after a hiatus is their 2010 breakout star Urrk'n Jerk'n. In total, RCRG and RMRG have met three times and the 5280 Fight Club has the series lead at 2-1, however Sunday's bout will only be the second time the teams have met outside of tournament play. It'll be the first time the two teams have played in Seattle, so you don't want to miss this exciting bout!
Just to mix things up, keep 'em fresh, for this bout, the All-Stars bout will be the warm-up for Rain of Terror! Rat City's secondary travel team will be hosting our across-the-Sound neighbors, Port Angeles' Port Scandalous Roller Derby. This will be Port Scandalous' second game against Rat City this year, as they faced the Throttle Rockets in March at the Key Arena. Port Scandalous is a WFTDA Apprentice league, so they are not yet ranked but, with a 7-4 season thus far in 2013, they are on the rise!

Bout 1: Rocky Mountain Roller Girls(8) vs. the Rat City All-Stars(6)
