This sport is perhaps one of the most exciting yet underappreciated sports in the world! Played largely by women, Roller Derby is a contact sport which has been popular the world over since long. The continent of North America has its own share of roller derby leagues, in which the United States has traditionally led, thanks to its awesome roller derby players. However, no other league has done as much for this sport than Lincoln, Nebraska, based No Coast Roller Derby, an all-American roller derby league consisting of two mixed teams. If you are interested in this unique form of contact sport, than buy your No Coast Roller Derby tickets today!
That this great roller derby league was formed in Lincoln, Nebraska, is no surprise since the town is also home to National Museum of Roller Skating! Whether it was a mere coincidence or a more planned scheme is of no consequence and does not change the fact. The fact of the matter remains that this league was formed in 2005 when a local band visited Austin, Texas, and got to know a local roller derby team there. So inspired were Jackie Geist and her friends that they came back and formed the No Coast Roller Derby.
As mentioned earlier, it is a league wherein two teams compete against teams from other leagues. These two teams are: Mad Maxines (A team) and Road Warriors (B team). They both play their home games at the Pershing Center. This is the same multi-purpose arena which once hosted one of the last concerts of the rock icon, Elvis Presley. A state-of-the-art facility, it can seat a little over 4,500 screaming fans of roller derby. Over the years, the Center has also hosted some of the finest basketball as well as indoor football games. You have got to buy your No Coast Roller Derby tickets today to enjoy the many splendors of the Pershing Center!
For those who need a brief re-fresher on the basics of the game; it is just like any other contact sport wherein two teams compete against each other. In the case of roller derby, it is teams of five members each, wearing roller skates and skating in the same direction around a track. The objective, just like in any other sport, is to win by scoring most number of points. In roller derby, not every player can score a point though; only a designated "jammer" can score a point. The rest of her team members help the "jammer" score by lapping members of the opposing team. The most interesting feature of the sport is that both teams are simultaneously playing both offense and defense. But no other team does it better than No Coast Roller Derby! No wonder their games are flocked by their die-hard fans. The tickets for their upcoming games are available but may not be for too long. So hurry and buy your No Coast Roller Derby tickets today!
