GGRD on the Banked
GGRD Makes a Strong Showing Against LADD

Wide shot of LADD v GGRDThe 2011 GGRD season started off away from the comforts of the flat track with a stalwart first ever bout on the banked track.  A team comprised of some of Gotham Girls Roller Derby's top skaters (including a guest appearance by GGRD retiree, Cheapskate) traveled to Los Angeles to take on the LA Derby Dolls' all-star team, the Ri-Ettes, on their home turf. While Gotham was able to pull ahead of LA for part of the game, LA came out on top with a 132-106 victory. We would like to thank our west coast hostesses and are proud to support all forms of competitive, athletic, modern roller derby! Watch footage of the bout here.
