Rempeln, Rocken, und Rollen

Berlin Bombshells (90) vs. the Stuttgart Valley Rollergirlz (96)

Hosted by our Verein, the incredible Lurich e.V., the Bombshells made roller derby history.  The first inner german roller derby game was played in Kreuzberg-Berlin.  The Stuttgart Valley Rollergirlz (SVRG) was supported in their roster by members of the Hamburg Harbor Girls.

Unsure if the weather would affect the turnout, we were pleasently surprised.  A line went out the door into the pouring rain and public couldn’t wait to get inside and see the action.  The hall was packed and sold out!  With a limited number of tickets to sell we had to turn hundreds away.

The crowd was magnetic and with the help of our fantastic moderator, Janeq, they developed a better understanding of the game as the periods past and with the final jams neck and neck you could cut the tension with a knife.

It was exciting, fast, emotional, and a total blast!  With our entire league experiencing its first we played a great game and a close match against SVRG with a final point differential of only 6 points, 90-96 with SVRG as the winners.  Until next time…..

We cannot say thank you enough to all the people who put in their time and effort to make this a success.  We couldn’t have had a more flawless event and you help us make it happen.  Thank you and we hope you had as much fun as we did!
