Montucky Derby - Roller Derby Bout
Coming off a huge win against Casper's Deadly Ghosts in mid-June, the Gallatin Roller Girlz will be hosting their first intra-league bout on Saturday, July 13 at the Fairgrounds Haynes Pavilion. The Montucky Derby, a Kentucky Derby themed bout, is ramping up to be one heck of a family feud. The Girlz have split into two evenly matched teams that will battle for home turf domination- the Trauma Queens and the Twisted Sisters.
