THE BIG ONE IS COMING TO CALIFORNIA!
Sac City Rollers and Bay Area Derby Girls host the first ever
California Women's Flat Track Roller Derby tournament in Davis, CA.

Saturday, April 5th and Sunday, April 6th, 2008 Roller Derby leagues
from Northern and Southern California will converge at the Davis
Indoor Sports Center (DISC) for a weekend tournament to compete for
the title of California Champion!

Participating leagues include the Sac City Rollers, Bay Area Derby
Girls, Sacred City Derby Girls, Angel City Derby Girls, Bakersfield
Rollergirls, Central Coast Roller Derby, Orange County Derby Girls and
the Port City Roller Girls. Leagues were chosen based on their Women's
Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) status and include sanctioned and
non-sanctioned leagues. For the sanctioned leagues, participation in
this tournament has implications in national WFTDA ranking, making the
tournament play much more exciting!

"With Roller Derby growing in the state of California to over 14
leagues, we thought it was time to bring the best of the bunch to
Davis and have them compete for the first-ever California WFTDA
Championship! With four WFTDA leagues competing, it will really be a
battle for the title" says Taxi Scab from the Bay Area Derby Girls.

Tickets are available for $15 (full day) and $25 (weekend) and can be
purchased by going to www.brownpapertickets.com. This is an all ages
event.

Saturday tournament play begins at 12:45pm with the opening ceremony
and concludes at 7:30pm. Sunday's tournament play begins at 9:00am and
concludes at 2:30pm. The Championship begins at 3:00pm and concludes
at 4:30pm followed immediately by the awards ceremony and closing
