The Brew City Bruiser’s All-star Travel Team kicked off the summer travel season with two games I’m calling the “secret brunch bouts” because they were both on Sunday afternoons and not open to the general public. From what I understand these bouts took place for the love of derby and to help the team meet the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA, commonly pronounced woof-da!) standards.
The Bruisers won the nail biter second bout against the valkyries of the Twin Cities Northstar Roller Girls by JUST ONE POINT, 92-91! Great job Bruisers!
The next home bout for the Travel Team will be open to the public July 18 against Madison’s Dairyland Dolls. More info at www.brewcitybruisers.com
i was unaware that we had a girls roller derby team, that’s AWESOME!
I have been waiting to see when the Brew City Bruiser’s will have live matches. Actual competition is better than a video game most any day. The adrenelin grows with each lap making for positive crowd energy.
Soon
Hey Tea? Are you hittin’ up the travel team bout in Franklin this Sat. (7/18)? Let me know. We’ll party.
