The PrissKillas first time for a shot at the championships. The PrissKillas lost this game, 74/224. The game was fun, despite the new strategies used by the Women of Mass Destruction, the PrissKillas managed to eek out 74 points ;). Here is the program roster from that game, however, I was not included in the program, which makes me kind of sad, given I am an original founder of the league, and the PrissKillas. Despite the glaring mistake...I forgive the powers that be...it was exciting to go to the championships.
PrissKilla Game Roster actually include:
Courtney Ratts - Captain
Olga Von Detta - Co-Captain
Smackie Chan
Blown Fuse
Anne Tag a Knee
Midnight Choker
Lucifer's Nightmare
Heavy Duty
Susan 4 a Bruisin
Dirty Constance
Hitsy Bitsy

The PrissKillas traveled to Ft. Smith, Arkansas to bout the River Valley Roller Girls. It was a fun trip, and although we lost, we had a great time. Here are a few pictures:

The final score was 154/79 or something in that range!
The PKP roster:
Courtney Ratts - Captain
Olga Von Detta - Co-Captain
Lyndalicious
Chica Bandita
La Sucia
Dirty Constance
Anne Tag a Knee
Heavy Duty
Midnight Choker
Honey Badger - Newbie
Cy D. Fect - Newbie
Hitsy Bitsy
Here is the program, but it seems the skater roster isn't accurate, but that's derby for you.
On to our Newbies! PrissKillas welcome Cy. D. Fect and Honey Badger, both girls played an extraordinary game for their first time out. It was amazing to watch their transformation from the beginning of the game to the end of the game. Amazing.

Memphis Roller Derby participated in a fundraiser Race for Grace for the Church Health Center of Memphis. The race organizers permitted the derby girls to skate the race, and there was a phenomenal turn out which raised a lot of money for the Church Health Center.

Official opening of Tobey Skate Park ~ Memphis' first skate park with nearly five years of work by local Dr. and skater, Dr. Aaron Shafer. The skate park was designed by Wormhoudt, and is a complete success.
Those are a lot of happy skaters. I am the girl in black with arms raised in a V. ;) V = Victory for Memphis progressing.
Moving on...
Upcoming events: Ho!Ho!Ho! Burlesque show
The burlesque show is an annual even for Memphis Roller Derby and is held at the Hi-Tone. In previous years it features skaters burlesque routines, although somewhat more tame than than general burlesque shows ;).
December 3, 2011:
Last, but not least, Memphis Roller Derby is participating in the St. Jude Marathon, both as runners and the league has a spirit station located near Black Lodge Video in Midtown. If you are a runner and would like to participate for a good cause, please visit St. Jude Marathon website for details.
I think I covered everything...
Support your local roller derby! Skate or die.
