****UPDATE!!!

WE TOOK THE WIN!

It was a very fun, hard hitting game. (I even made a couple of good hits!) Hellion has a lot of taller and bigger girls. When lining up next to most of the Belladonnas, it looks like our short stature would cause us a disadvantage. After the second jam it was clear that it was not the case. The pack pace was pretty fast and sometimes chaotic. Our strategy and teamwork won this game. Some of our fans heard people talking about us being an intimidating and agile team. I agree.

FINAL SCORE:

BELLADONNAS: 202

HELLION REBELION: 64

I hope we can get our hands on a video of this game. I really would love to see it myself. When I find a group picture I will update this post again.

Stark Raving Plaid Update!

It was an amazing game! The Belladonnas train hard and their work paid off at the game last night! The Lassies played hard and hit hard. It was a fight for every point, for each team. The Belladonnas had solid defence. I believe that was the main reason in the gap for the final score. They also ran their offensive plays flawlessly. The Lassies did not make it easy for them in any way.

I stood behind the bench watching, screaming, cheering and pacing. Sometimes acting as water girl. The venue was packed! Over 1000 people packing the stands, seats, and some left standing. Roller derby is getting a lot more popular around here. Some found the score confusing but one thing was clear, the Belladonnas rocked it!

FINAL SCORE:

BELLADONNAS 200

THRASHING LASSIES 58

Great job everyone! I'd also like to shout out to the referees, NSO's, security and all other volunteers. THANK YOU!
