Let's not forget the KDB vs. Rose bout!

Kitsat Derby Brats vs Rose City Rose Petals 05-28-2016

Wow! What an absolutely AMAZING event yesterday! 4 teams, 6 games and 68 skaters, all between the ages of 6 and 12 on one track. It all came together in one day to show the world what junior roller derby really is and we did just that. The sportsmanship and true purity of this game was on display for everyone who was present to see and it was unbelievable!
The energy that was displayed at this tournament yesterday was unbelievable. After 6 hours of playing, during some down time, an intense game of "Sharks and Minnows" broke out in the warm up area. These kids were chasing eachother down on skates for the pure fun of it. Where else are you going to see that kind of action? WE NEED MORE OF THIS!!!
So much work went into making this happen. Too many names come to mind and myself and the Kitsap Derby Brats organization would like to thank each and every one of you who helped make this tournament happen! A big and special shout out to all of tournament heads for bringing such amazing crews together that ensured it was a safe experience as well as a fun experience!
