There's only one place and time each year to see the top roller derby seeds square off for the Women's Flat Track Championship title. This year, Chicago's UIC Pavilion will host Uproar on the Lakeshore, WFTDA's roller derby Championship tournament Friday, November 5 to Sunday, November 7. And guess who's going to be there?
The Dairyland Dolls secured their spot at Championships with an intense win over the Cincinnati Roller Girls at the North Central Regional tournament in September. And if the Regional Tournament is any indication of things to come, the Uproar will be a mad rush of hard fights and last minute upsets come November.
Twelve of the 98 WFTDA leagues earned their chance to bout for the Championship title by placing in the top three in their regional tournament. The DDs rank third in the North Central Region, and they play their first bout of the tournament on Friday at 5:30 p.m. against the No. 2 east coast seed, the Philadelphia Roller Girls. The Championship bout starts at 4:00 p.m. on Sunday.
Tournament location, tickets, and bout schedule can be found at http://www.uproaronthelakeshore.com/. Weekend passes are $78, weekend VIP trackside passes are $123, and daily passes are $31. No daily VIP tickets will be available. Book your seats, pack your cowbell, and roll down to Chicago to help the Dairyland Dolls throw some Ds!
