  • [Jamstarting Whistle] R. Lee Quinn
    Five seconds! [jam­starting whistle] R. Lee Quinn: Hi and welcome to this first episode of Crime City Radio, with R. Lee Quinn and Merle Hazard This is a brand new podcast where we will talk about things related specifically to Crime City Rollers but also about roller derby in general. In this first episode we will talk about how european derby is really starting to move up in the world rankings. We will have a conversation with Kix from Crime City Rollers A­team and Merle will guide you through what you need to know about the teams CCR will be facing at Beach Brawl this weekend. Last year, in the April rankings, there were only two european teams in the top 100. London Rollergirls at number 3 and Auld Reekie Roller Girls at number 100. And that was it! But the following month a lot of european teams took a big jump in the rankings and in May there were five european teams in the top 100. Last year, several european teams travelled to the US, played well against a lot higher ranked teams and since then we have been climbing, and we’ve been climbing fast. So in this years May rankings there are no less than eight european teams in the top 100! 11 London Rollergirls 24 Glasgow Roller Derby 31 Stockholm Roller Derby 35 Helsinki Roller Derby 59 Bear City Roller Derby 62 Auld Reekie Roller Girls 78 Crime City Rollers 83 Tiger Bay Brawlers 102 Rainy City Roller Girls (not really top 100 but too close not to mention) 1 Based on the June rankings, the top 40 teams get to play division 1 playoffs, and the teams ranked at 41­60 will get to play division 2 playoffs.

    SPONSORSHIP PACKAGE WHO ARE WE? Cardiff and Wales’ premier roller derby team. We are Tiger Bay Brawlers - Cardiff and Wales’ premier roller derby team. Founded in 2010, we quickly established a reputation as one of the top roller derby teams in the UK, a position that we have maintained ever since. Our drive and commitment have pushed us to an international level. We are proud to be one of the first UK teams to have competed internationally, taking part in tournaments in both Europe and the USA. We are the embodiment of our values - athletic, focused, united. WHAT IS ROLLER DERBY? Full contact, high speed, roller sport for women. Roller derby is an all-female contact sport played on quad roller skates. The action takes place between two teams on an oval-shaped track. Each team consists of five players - four defensive players known as blockers and one points scorer, known as a jammer. Jammers score points by lapping the opposing blockers. The team with the most points at the end of the two 30 minute periods wins! Good roller derby requires athleticism, agility and teamwork. The skill and action-packed nature of the game makes it an exciting spectator experience. WHY SPONSOR US? Some reasons to sponsor Tiger Bay Brawlers include: - Show your support for powerful women - Promote fitness to a new audience - Stand up for diversity - Align yourself with the best in Wales - Expand your reach to a growing audience SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR POWERFUL WOMEN Roller derby is a sport dominated by women. Roller derby provides opportunities for women to develop not just their fitness and strength but also their business and organisational skills.

  • Roller Derby Rundown: Brown University, Getting Gored, and ECDX!
    Roller Derby Rundown: Brown University, Getting Gored, and ECDX! 2015 has started out tough for the girls, but as the weather heats up, so does action on the flat track for Providence Roller Derby! PRD’s travel team the (#79) Rhode Island Riveters will skate for the first time on the rink of Brown University’s Meehan Auditorium to battle against Colorado’s (#93) Pikes Peak Derby Dames. Also as part of the double-header, PRD’s Rocky Point Rollers will go hip-to-hip with Boston’s down C-Team. It’ll be on Sat, April 25 at 5:30pm. Tickets are cheaper in advance online at ProvidenceRollerDerby.com. The weekend doesn’t just end there! The following morning, Sun, April 26, the girls will be putting on the horns and be on the prowl through the streets of downtown Providence. Why? Because it’s the annual Get Gored For Good: Running of the Bulls – a festival to raise money for the Amos House, a charity helping to combat hunger. Registered runners will make their way through the streets and obstacle courses while being hunted down by the roller girls acting as the bulls and getting “gored” (tagged with red paint). It’s an all-ages event that is still taking donations and registrations. For more information, go to GetGoredForGood.org. Finally, more great news comes PRD’s way, as for the second year in a row the Riveters will be traveling to Philadelphia on June 19-21 for this year’s East Coast Derby Extravaganza, which is three days of derby featuring selected teams and skaters from around the world.

  • Jerwood/Arvon Mentoring Scheme Anthology Volume
    Whisper The Wrong Name • Jerwood/Arvon Mentoring Scheme Anthology Volume Six Name • Jerwood/Arvon Volume Anthology Mentoring Scheme Wrong The Whisper Whisper the Wrong Name showcases the work of nine talented writers who have taken part in the Jerwood/Arvon Mentoring Scheme 2015/16. The scheme has been supported generously by Jerwood Charitable Foundation since 2009, enabling poets, playwrights and fiction writers to develop their work. This year’s mentors were Ross Raisin, Tanika Gupta and Caroline Bird. Taken from Sarah Mulholland’s play of the same name, this volume’s title evokes a drama felt throughout these works. To whisper is a considered act. To whisper the wrong name then produces a tension. Two sisters meet for the first time in 1950s Soho; a group of Scottish teenagers appear invisible to their parents; two lovers must conceal their JERWOOD/ARVON MENTORING SCHEME relationship from a disruptive visitor. All of the pieces in this anthology ANTHOLOGY VOLUME SIX take us to the heart of that drama – whether it be in poetic, script or prose form.
