Bosses v Sirens Preview

Phil Arnold — Sat, 16 May 2009 02:59:10 +0000

The Houston Roller Derby will present a double header on Saturday at Kicks Indoor Soccer and Gym, 611 Shepherd Drive in Houston, Texas.

In one double header bout, the Psych Ward Sirens will skate against the Bayou City Bosses in what has turned out to be the biggest rivalry of the league. Last year the Bayou City Bosses lost to the Sirens during the regular season, but turned around and won the 2008 championship bout. In 2007, the Psych Ward Sirens lost to the Bosses during the regular season, but turned around and won their championship bout against the Bosses. This rivalry has been fiercely competitive even before the Bosses contended with the Sirens the last two years for the league championship.

The Psych Ward Sirens feature Mistilla the Killa, DeMentia and Jekyll and Heidi as top jammers for this explosive team. Top blockers include Panty Raider, Carmen Geddit, and Tex Offender. Top jammers for the Bayou City Bosses include Death By Chocolate, Miss Lead, and Holla Pain Yo. Some of the top blockers on this very powerful blocking team include Nawty Dread Knocks, Goldie BloXX, and Becky Booty.

In the other bout of the night the HRD Burlesque Brawlers will host Texas Rollergirls’ Hotrod Honeys. The Hotrod Honeys are arguably the best league championship team in Texas, especially after winning the Southern Brawl tournament in San Antonio last October. Although the Burlesque Brawlers will be skating short a few skaters because of injuries, the Brawlers have a real surprise for Houston derby fans. They will be bringing back some retired skaters to skate this bout only. Catazon, Mary Choppins, and Chicken are scheduled to skate for the Brawlers at this time.

Top jammers for the Brawlers include Speedo, Savage Rose, and Chainsaw Chic. Featured blockers include Sinister Sista, Starr Doom, and Brat Poison. The Hotrod Honeys will counter with star jammers Rice Rocket, Morphine, and Lucille Brawl. Top blockers on this solid team blocking squad from Austin include Vicious van GoGo, Shank, and Cat Tastrophe.

Doors open at Kicks at 6 p.m. with the first bout scheduled to start at 7 o’clock. Tickets are $12 in advance and $15 at the door. To purchase tickets online and get more information on this bout and on Houston Roller Derby please visit their web site at http://houstonrollerderby.com/.
