A Bout Last Night

A Bout Last Night

Take the hard hits of hockey and the nostalgia of a spin around the Stardust roller rink and you've got one hot Saturday night.

It's roller derby Whip It-style and Vancouver has its own league, the Terminal City Rollergirls. We took in the season opener and it was full of thrills, spills and fishnets on four wheels. If you're foggy on the rules, like we were, grab a program that explains blockers, jammers and pivots, to get up to speed.

And just for fun, pick your rollergirl name then double-check it against the international roster (unfortunately Punky Bruiser and Lucille Brawl are already taken).

Next bout is May 15 at Minoru Area, 7551 Minoru Gate, Richmond, www.terminalcityrollergirls.com
