First of all, before any unfounded rumors start, I was the one who deleted the previous article from a few days ago. That was my editorial decision.
While some had found the article to be too strong and some questioned my derby love, I do stand by what was mentioned in the article.
Phoenix area derby is in dire need of repair in some places. What was a fun sport for the skaters and the spectators has turned into a political power struggle and it has affected the game. As a derby fan, I want the game back. I should not always have to travel to Tucson to see good WFTDA derby.
Another night of overlapping schedules meant decisions on where to go. Fortunately this time, the overlap was in two different markets so derby fans could be more evenly divided among the two leagues. We had a double header in Tucson while AZRD had their final regulation bout of the season.
In front of a slightly smaller crowd last night, mainly because of the timing with the Pima County Fair, the Tucson Roller Derby fans at Bladeworld got to see two very amazing bouts last night.
April is one of the quietest months for derby here in Arizona. However, there are some things that are going on.
(A Michi-chan opinionated bitch)
Yesterday on Michichan.com and leadjammer.com, we had released a story stating that the Arizona Roller Derby (AZRD) Tent City Terrors would bout the Arizona Derby Dames (AZDD) Lady Lux in August. While this story did get some responses from people believing that it would actually happen, it was an April Fools prank.
But what if it wasn't?
Editor's Note: This was an April Fools prank.
In light of the recent news that Arizona Roller Derby (AZRD) will be sharing the Castle Sports Club with Arizona Derby Dames (AZDD), both leagues will be making a joint announcement later today, April 1, 2008 that a very long awaited exhibition bout between AZRD's Tent City Terrors and the AZDD's Lady Lux will take place on August 23, the date that is currently set as the AZDD Lady Lux demo bout.
According to information obtained on the website for the Castle Sports Club, it appears that Arizona Roller Derby may be changing it's home venue from the outdoor venue Casey At The Bat to the indoor venue Castle Sports Club.
The Castle currently hosts the events for the Arizona Derby Dames and actually AZRD used to be at the Castle prior to moving over to Casey's.
Two Phoenix area leagues were bouting last night. Over on the west-side, Arizona Derby Dames had a doubleheader which featured the Runaway Brides in their debut bout take on the Bombshells and the School Yard Scrappers, coming off of a huge (and their first) win to take on the Coffin Draggers. On the east-side, Arizona Roller Derby had the Bruisers (sans Ivanna & Trish) take on the 0-2 Surly Gurlies...

In a time, not so long ago, let’s say about 3 months ago. There was an AZRD team called The Bruisers. This was not the same Bruisers team of today but a totally different team. With skaters like team captain TNTia, Mink Stole, Chi Chi Roni, Nacho Girlfriend and others, this Bruiser team kicked ass.
HEY ARIZONA DERBY FANS!!!!!
We have been doing pretty good this year with the predictions. Let's do some for the rest of this month in Arizona derby!!
TONIGHT - TUCSON ROLLER DERBY
IRON CURTAIN VS. VICE SQUAD - 2 pretty equal teams but I was very impressed with the IC at the last bout and I think they will have a slight edge. IRON CURTAIN BY LESS THAN 10 in a medium scoring (50-80) game.
