It is the good time again: ARRG are hosting another of our infamous pub quizzes! Write it down in your diaries!
When? Tuesday, 11 June
Where? Downstairs @ The Tron
Entry? £5 – all proceeds are going to the ECDX travel fund
The theme for victory is USA. There will be prizes, just to sweeten the pot for you, alongside fun questions and challenges. Can you plank against a derby girl?
The quiz is open to derby and non-derby folk alike. Bring your pals!
You can place your pre-orders in our super snazzy online shop.
There are a few important things to note: all of the online sales are pre-orders and orders need to be made by 15th April. We will then make the merch to order and post it, and you should receive it between 22nd and 26th April.
This merch will also be available to buy at bouts, starting with Anarchy III in Guildford/London on 27th and 28th April, the Thistles vs Hotwheels bout in Huddersfield on 4th May, and the Belles vs Vienna bout at Meadowbank on 18th May.
This is special limited edition merchandise that ARRG are selling to raise funds for ECDX, and once it’s gone it’s gone. Hence if you don’t want to chance your luck and leave empty-handed, pre-order your Party ARRG! merch now!
50 bouts | 3 rinks | 1 weekend
Auld Reekie’s all-star travel team, the Twisted Thistles, have been invited to take part in the East Coast Derby Extravaganza (ECDX) roller derby tournament in Philadelphia, USA, from 28 to 30 June 2013.
This year marks the seventh year of ECDX and will feature ARRG battling it out with the best teams from America, Canada and the UK, in what is one of the biggest events in the derby world. ECDX’13 will be three days filled with 50 bouts happening simultaneously across three rinks, drawing in more than 1,000 skaters and 200+ referees.
As Scotland’s first team to become recognised by WFTDA, Auld Reekie Roller Girls have always worked hard and competed at the highest level and it doesn’t get much higher than bouting with the big girls at ECDX. Fresh from placing fourth in Europe at the Track Queens Tournament in Berlin in November, the Twisted Thistles are guaranteed to be fighting fit and ready to take on the best that Philly’s got to offer.
Keep an eye on the news, like us on Facebook and follow ARRG on Twitter (@AuldReekieRG) for EDCX news and ways that you can get involved with Easyfundraising and help send ARRG to Philly.
We are also accepting direct contributions to our trip via the ‘Donate’ page of our website!
Because, as ARRG Captain Lianne Parry (Crazylegs) said:
“The USA will not know what hit it when Auld Reekie rolls into town.”
Judging by the training footage that has leaked earlier this week, Philadelphia is in for a treat indeed!
