HaRD Knocks v Angel City Preview
The Houston Roller Derby HaRD Knocks will take on Los Angeles’ Angel City Derby Girls Saturday. The bout will occur at JOPA Sports, 17951 I-45 S. in Shenandoah, Texas, just north of the Woodlands. Seating is limited!
Houston is coming off of a tough weekend of roller derby in Philadelphia, so they are nicked up with injuries. Angel City is ranked 32nd in the WFTDA (Women’s Flat Track Derby Association) while Houston is ranked 24th. This could be a very important game for Houston, which competed against two higher ranked teams the previous weekend at East Coast Derby Extravaganza and will be looking for a win to keep their ranking up, and a little help from the home crowd. The only information I have about Angel City is they are a greatly improved team in the last year.
Doors open at 7 p.m. with the bout scheduled to start at 7:30.
Again, seating is limited, so Houston fans are advised to get advanced tickets if possible. Tickets are $10 and almost sold out. Be sure to get your ticket online before 5pm on Friday!
