2012 Outer Banks Roller Derby Tournament: Derby Spills in Kill Devil Hills

Outer Banks Roller Derby

Outer Banks Roller Derby

Last year, around this time, I announced the start of the OBX roller derby league. A proud moment for all lovers of the elegant (that’s sarcasm ;) ) sport. Unfortunately, I hadn’t heard much since. I saw some ladies rolling around at the KDH park, but never heard of any games. Until today…

I just got word that a gnarly roller derby tournament is planned for early this spring; dubbed “Derby Spills in Kill Devil Hills.”  Great name, ladies.

Here are some details…
Derby Spills in Kill Devil Hills is an invitational roller derby tournament created to bring the leagues of North Carolina and Virginia together for a weekend of AWESOME derby bouts and education in the Outer Banks.

Tournament bouts will be played on Friday and Saturday with an optional training camp on Sunday.  The training camp is open to all skaters, even those not participating in the tournament.

The derby tourney will be the evening of Friday, April 27 and all day Saturday, April 28. It will be at Aviation Park in Kill Devil Hills (near high school, skate park, etc.) and tickets will be on sale soon at local businesses.

We’ll share more details as they are available.

The OBX derby ladies practice Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 6-7:30 at Aviation Park across from First Flight High School - come out anytime and they’ll give you the low down on derby!
