Cops vs Convicts
There were some wild happenings at ASB stadium on Saturday night with our first home game of the season.
Opening game was the juniors and this game was fast and very competitive. The score margin was very small throughout the whole game with team Black just pulling ahead of team Red at the end. Final score was 231 – 226.
The main event was the senior’s game with our very own S.W.A.T. team versus the Convicts from the Nightmares Correctional Facility. The Wardens on the referee squad had to keep a keen eye on this game to ensure there were no underhand or devious tactics going on. This game was also very close all the way through but in the end the Convicts pulled ahead to win 241-204.
Thanks to the Fans who came out to watch and cheer – you are AWESOME!, Thanks to the Skeleton Crew and Refs for keeping it running smoothly. And a big thanks to Peowhairangi Roller Derby skaters (both junior & senior) for travelling down from Kerikeri & joining us in the fun.
Next home game is 11th May – see you there
Keeping everyone in line!

First Roadie of the Year
On Saturday 30th March the Nightmares loaded up their cars and took off for Hamilton to face Hellmilton Roller Ghouls’ Raggedy Angst in our opening game of the season.
Our juniors, Hell Razors also came with us to put on an opening exhibition bout with the junior skaters Hamilton have. As expected the juniors played brilliantly and hopefully will help Hamilton recruit more juniors for their team.
The senior game was awesome to watch with Hells Wives coming away with a win of 172-148, a great way to open the season. It was touch and go at times, especially towards the end when we were down to 6 players.
We are now looking forward to our first home game, an exhibition bout which you won’t want to miss!! Watch out for post with all the details very soon
