Brawling v Crime Triple Header
What's that? Another home game?
Join us at Tottenham Green Pools and Fitness on April 27th for not one, not two, but THREE amazing games, showcasing some of the best teams in European roller derby.
We've got an absolute blinder organised for you, with the 3 highest ranked WFTDA teams in Europe all under one roof!
First up, it's Manchester's Rainy City Roller Derby vs Malmö's Crime City Rollers. Currently ranked in 2nd and 3rd places, these two teams last played in October 2023, with Crime City Rollers sneaking the win by just 7 points!
Our second game sees Cardiff's Tiger Bay Brawlers take on London's B Team, Brawl Saints! It's been a while - 2017 was the last time these two teams shared the track, with Tiger Bay Brawlers coming out on top with a 16 point lead.
To finish up, not content with playing just one top 3 team, Crime City will be back on track to face off against our A Team, London Brawling, currently ranked #1 in WFTDA Europe. London won by just 2 points in the final seconds of their last match up in November 2023, so this is definitely going to be one to watch.
Tickets will go on sale Monday 1st April at 18:00.

Take on me
Take On Me is BACK! Join London Roller Derby’s Brawling for a mini tournament to remember.
In this year’s edition of our well-loved, fast-paced fundraiser tournament, four teams will take on Brawling in a series of chaotic mini-rounds.
As always, there’s a twist: skaters, officials and audience members will be able to donate money to purchase ‘twists’ to rig the game. Hijinks WILL ensue.
Want to get your jammer out of the penalty box? Go for it. Want your favourite blocker to don the star for the next jam? Sure. Want to finally watch a clockwise jam? Why the hell not? YOU control the game, with all donations going towards the running of London Roller Derby, including offsetting member travel costs and making our Fundamentals programme more accessible.
Where and when?
Saturday 25 November, 15.00-20.00, Tottenham Green Pools and Fitness
Want to participate as a skater?
Teams taking on Brawling will have up to eight skaters. You can enter as a team for £140, or as an individual skater for £20 per person.
Want to be a bench crew member?
Each team can have a bench crew of up to three people. You can sign up to join a bench crew for £10 per person.
How does team allocation work for individual sign ups?
If you sign up as a solo skater or bench crew and have a specific team in mind, please let us know when you enter and we’ll match you up. Otherwise, it’s the luck of the draw and you’ll be allocated at random.
