If you are interested in making a donation to help us further our mission, please read here: http://www.gothamgirlsrollerderby.com/about/donate
Gotham Girls Roller Derby is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 charity, and auction donations are tax deductible. Each season, the league faces huge costs in rent, travel, and insurance. The league is managed by the skaters themselves, with no paid employees. Our skaters and volunteers work tirelessly - both on the track and off - to represent the greatest city in the world at home and on the road, competing as the 2008 and 2011 champions of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association. |
SPONSOR OFFER
Ever wonder how the Gotham Girls look so fabulous at our formal events, like our annual auction, or our end-of-season awards party?
It takes miles and miles of skating... plus a little help from the fashions at RentTheRunway.com 
Fifty dollars off your next rental
with the discount code RTRLOVESGGRD
for rentals placed from Oct 13-20, good for rentals throughout the upcoming holiday party season.

OCTOBER 27
SEASON FINALE
INTERLEAGUE DOUBLE-HEADER 
Photos: Sean Murphy, Sean Hale
Gotham and Chicago's Windy City Rollers renew our long rivalry on October 27th at City College of New York. Gotham's newest compilation team -- the Grand Central Terminators -- make their public debut vs. WCR's Third Coast. Wear purple to support the Termies!
Then Gotham's Wall Street Traitors - undefeated in 2012 - wrap up the year with a re-match against WCR's Second Wind.
The Second Wind defeated the Traitors in Chicago last summer to wrest away "The Skyline Cup," awarded to the latest winner of each WCR/GGRD matchup. Then our All-Stars won it back on the banked track at last November's Kitten Traxx Chicago Invitational. Can the Traitors keep the cup in New York?
It's the last derby bout of the year in New York City -- come celebrate with a Saturday night pre-Halloween double-dip!
