Phoenix, AZ (January 3, 2012). The Arizona Derby Dames return to the coliseum to fight for position for the 2012 season. Teams compete for top stats rankings, and the chance to move directly into the championship game by ending the season in first place. The Schoolyard Scrappers take to the track for their first game of the season against the Brutal Beauties. Then the Bombshells take on the Runaway Brides.
Referee, John Wilkes Boosh, said of the upcoming bouts, “It’s always a blast watching new skaters make their debut, and since it’s the Schoolyard Scrapper’s first bout of the season, they will be showcasing their newest team members Darth Evade Her, Nikki Badazz, Samba Slugger, and Shirley Demise. They will play the new look Brutal Beauties in the first bout who have also been given a boost from their rookies Kiki UrHaz, Jill O’Shotz, Sarahcuda, and phenom jammer, Molly Whoremon. As a ref, both games will be keeping me on my toes because rookies tend to be a little penalty heavy as they learn the ropes, and the Bombshells and Brides both have some huge hitters on their squads. No doubt it’s going to be a blast!”
The Arizona Derby Dames traded their skates for hammers on December 17th to participate in a build for Habitat for Humanity in Surprise, AZ. The charity allows families to purchase houses that would be otherwise unattainable. Now the Dames are back in Phoenix and ready for the next double header of the season. In the first bout of the night, the Schoolyard Scrappers will battle the Brutal Beauties. The first bout between the Schoolyard Scrappers and the Brutal Beuties will showcase the diverse personalities of the league, ranging from the 2011 Drama Queen-- Kat Von Double D’s of the Schoolyard Scrappers-- to the 2011 Silent but Deadly Blocker-- Skluz Out of the Brutal Beauties. The second bout is a rematch of last year’s playoff final between the Bombshells and Runaway Brides; a game that came down to a jammer race in overtime and has been widely referred to as AZDD’s most exciting game in history. These ladies are ready to bring on the excitement, and show fans what Roller Derby and the Arizona Derby Dames are all about.
