No Minors, Interleague Bout
Last weekend I Head Reffed an Interleague Bout run under the No Minors rule set. Full disclosure: One of the teams in the bout was an non-WFTDA affiliated co-ed team.

Roller Derby is Fun

I love to skate. I love to see my teammates pull that perfect hit. Or pull our jammer through on the inside while creaming the jammer right behind her.
I love meeting amazing people that I would NEVER have come across without derby.
Why do you love derby?
Aside from it being the best sport to watch EVAR?
I got hooked when I saw two fierce competitors hit the floor right in...
