Welcome, old fans and new. Here’s a bit of an update on what TCRG are doing to kick off the roller derby season! Check the event calendar at the top of the page for further dates and details.
Home Teams
The Home Season Opener is on April 14, and for the first time will feature three teams in a round-robin format. The Total Knock-Outs will take their place on the jammer line next to original teams Vicious Dishes and Venus Fly Tramps. No matter who your favourite TCRG skater might be, you’re bound to see them there. Wear your team colours and help the league put a loud and proud start on 2012!
Also coming soon: TCRG returns to the Beast of the East. This year’s tournament was so highly anticipated that a lottery was held to enter. Your own Vicious Dishes were chosen to represent TCRG and will play in Montreal April 21 (and hopefully on the 22nd in the finals). Their first round opponents are the Reines of Terror from Muddy River - this is a first-time meeting and should be very exciting.
Speaking of exciting – remember that humdinger of a double-header between the Thames Fatales/LunchLadies and the Venus Fly Tramps/TKO’s? What’s that? You’d like to see an epic rematch? Done – happening in June!
Thunder
On the WFTDA front, Thunder (ranked 16th, North Central) have already quietly begun climbing the ladder with a trip to Roc City in February that resulted in their first sanctioned victory of the year. Up next they face TORD , Hammer City and Rideau Valley at Quad City Chaos:

Watch this space for more Thunder updates, inlcuding trips to Grand Raggidy and Burning River. TCRG even host a rematch with Ohio in May, and Thunder shall once again travel to Milwaukee for the Midwest Brewhaha!
Plan B
…And there’s something new for 2012. Now providing Thunder with some back up is TCRG Plan B, a secondary travel team ready to extend the olive branch of derby diplomacy (held in the stanky wristguard of stiff competition) wherever it is needed! More details on this wicked new development to come.
Tri-City looks forward to seeing you all in the exciting season to come!
