LKRG skaters in first public bout - Feb 4th, Dublin

Limerick Roller Girls are delighted to announce our first public bout, sort of. Seven LKRG skaters will be teaming up with seven Belfast Roller Girls to create the Dockyard Destroyers who will take on the Dublin Roller Girls rookie team on February 4th at the Tallaght Basketball Arena.

LKRG have been training really hard for the past 8 weeks, both on and off skates and our fitness levels are going through the roof. On Saturday 21st January we had Crow Jane and Naomi from the Cork Firebirds giving us a three hour derby clinic, and the following day, members of the team travelled to Belfast to participate in a training session with the Belfast Banshees.

The Dockyard Destroyers versus the DRG Reserves is just the first derby bout of the day to take place at 2.30pm. The second match is Dublin Roller Girls versus the Belfast Banshees which starts at 4.45pm. The doors open to the public at 1pm.

Tickets are €10 at the door or they can be purchased from DRG by emailing dublinrollergirls@gmail.com, under 12’s enter for free when accompanied by an adult.

We hope to see all our supporters there!

Derby Love

Capt. K. Painway (not the LKRG captain, that’s Jewel Suffer!)
