FoCo Girls Gone Derby 2010 Season Opener - FoCo Derby Strikes Back!


One week after FoCo Girls Gone Derby's travel team—the FoCo MicroBruisers—achieved a stunning victory over Greeley's Slaughterhouse Derby Girls, Fort Collins’ home teams, Chanel Cartel and Deathrow Dolls will face off for the first time in 2010 on Saturday, March 13, at Rollerland. After a one-month off-season, Northern Colorado’s original roller derby league began training in January for what promises to be an eventful season.

After a couple months of rigorous practice, FoCo’s home teams can’t wait to be turned loose on one another in the first home bout of the season. Fort Collins derby fans will notice some changes this year, from the lineups to the uniforms.

Ten percent of the proceeds from this bout will go to Loveland’s Alternatives to Violence, an organization dedicated to intervention in, education about, and prevention of domestic violence, sexual assault and other violent crimes. Bring a donation of household toiletries for Loveland's Alternatives to Violence to receive one dollar off the price at the door.

Tickets are $10 presale and $15 at the door. Students receive a reduced rate of $7 with a current student ID. Ages 10 and under are admitted free. Tickets can be purchased through the Rollerland Skate Center ticket booth, from any FoCo derby girl or online at www.brownpapertickets.com or www.focogirlsgonederby.com. Purchases also can be processed by phone at 800-838-3006.
