At the last minute, I was asked to announce, so I wasn't able to get my writing on for this one, but that's OK! Elwood Bruise was on hand with some great Jr Derby write-ups! Elwood really has great respect for Junior Derby. You should definitely go on over and check it out!

So! The standings! Portland, Kitsap and Eugene have all four games in the books, meaning there is only one more game to play. Eugene and Seattle will be at the Southgate Roller Rink on July 9th to finish out the season! As Elwood says, you should come and watch!
If Seattle wins, then the we have a three way tie for second place in the standings. Unlike WFTDA (who uses point spread to decide these things), we have yet to determine exactly how we will sort this out. I think the most fair is to look at victories. Reservoir Dolls beat I-5, I-5 beat SDB. This would put Reservoir Dolls into the game for the championship against Portland and I-5 would play SDB for 3rd and 4th.
But what if SDB loses? That would put SDB and Kitsap both with 1-3 records, I-5 still at 2-2 and Eugene at 3-1 along with Portland. Again, since SDB beat Kitsap, it should probably put I-5 vs SDB for 3rd and fourth... or I-5 gets 3rd themselves and SDB and KDB battle it out for fourth and fifth!
We'll sort it all out, though!

Bout Preview! SDB Galaxy Girls Vs I-5 Rollergirls, Kitsap Derby Brats Vs. EJG Reservoir Dolls
It's that time again! Summer! Time for some serious Jr Derby bouting as the girls are out of school and the days are longer. This Sunday, June 19th, The Pavilion at the Kitsap Fairgrounds will host the first of several double as we move ever towards the August 6th NW Regional Championships in Eugene.
Up first is the Eugene Jr Gems' Reservoir Dolls vs the Kitsap Derby Brats. Eugene stands at 2-0, having taken out both portland and I-5, while Kitsap (at 0-3) can really play spoiler and make sure no one has a perfect record this year.
The Kitsap girls are hungry and play hard (as I saw in their bout against SDB last month). Whamsday and Red Rager Will give their all against a strong Reservoir Doll team! They may be 0-3 and this is their last game for standings this year, but this team definitely is NOT one to be counted out. They have a lot of skill and fire on the track, and that comes through in every bout. Definitely a great one to watch!
The second bout has the I-5 Rollergirls taking on their cross town rivals, the SDB Galaxy Girls. It's always great when these two teams play. They leave it all out on the track and skate to win.
Both teams are having slight injury trouble (I have reports that Rockin' Red of SDB and Hunther Down of I-5 are both having some knee troubles), but the rest of their squads will definitely play even harder to make up for it.
This will be I-5's last game for standings, as they have already played against the other 3 leagues in the running this year and you can be assured they intend to be 2-2 when the final whistle blows. SDB has Eugene on July 9th after this bout, the final game for standings here in the NW, so this one is definitely important for both teams.
Should be a lot of fun, and a great way to spend Fathers Day!
