Battle to the Bitter End
The Chattanooga Roller Girls faced off against Mobile Roller Derby on Saturday and it was a fight to the finish! It came down to a referee error during the final jam that put Mobile over Chattanooga by just a single point with a final score of Chattanooga 130, Mobile 131. Your Roller Girls played their hearts out against a tough squad loaded with skaters from other teams.
Chattanooga will be in Athens, GA on September 18th to take on the Classic City Rollergirls. Come travel with us and support your Chattanooga Roller Girls!

Another WIN for CRG!
It was a close game in New Orleans, LA on Saturday night but CRG managed to pull off a victory again! With a score of 115 to 118, it was one heck of a nail biter! We faced some stiff competition from the Crescent Wenches of the Big Easy Rollergirls and had a great time while we were at it! A huge thanks to the gals of the Big Easy league for hosting us!

Chattanooga Roller Derby Girls Are...On a Roll...at the North Chattanooga Recreation Center!
The team was honored with a certificate of appreciation from the North Chattanooga Recreation Center last Thursday and Rhonda Seeber was on hand to take pictures and document the occasion for "Good 'Community News' from the City's Recreation Centers". We were so surprised by this honor! Especially since we feel like THEY should be the ones honored. Not only for letting us practice in their gymnasium but for the many ways they give back to our community! We are so thankful for the North Chattanooga Recreation Center!
Following is the write up they gave the occasion in the publication:
Not only do the members of the Chattanooga Roller Derby Girls hold their weekly practices at the North Chattanooga Recreation Center, the group helps the recreation center staff with youth programs and activities that benefit the North Chattanooga and Hill City communities. Facility Manager Evelyn Snorton says, “we are truly grateful and wanted to thank them for becoming a part of this community. Their generous support and donations have included after school snacks, games, and mentoring time!"

Fresh Meat
The Chattanooga Roller Girls' first official Fresh Meat class is off to an awesome start! These girls hit the rink rolling in late February and are working with our Head of Training, MomCore, to learn the basics of derby. Last week at practice they got their first real taste working on some hitting drills - and it was obvious these girls are going to be a force to be reckoned with! CRG is lucky to have such a great group of Fresh Meat girls!
If you're interested in joining their ranks, we'll be holding our next Fresh Meat Orientation class on April 10th at Roller Coaster Skate World in Fort Oglethorpe, GA from 11 AM to 1 PM.
Check out the info under Recruits for more details and feel free to contact the girls listed there for any questions you might have.

Spread the Love
Six of your Chattanooga Roller Girls - Budd Lightyear, Cha Cha De Gore Yo!, Ghetto Blaster, Gris Gris, LightsOut Lucy, and Violet Heart Breaker went down to Auburn this weekend to play in a charity event for Spread the Love with the Burn City Rollers. The girls that played in the event included skaters from the home team (Burn City), Tragic City Rollers, and Dixie Derby Girls. The group was split into two teams - Black and Blue, with three girls from CRG on each team. Both teams played a tough game with a tight score all the way until the end where Blue pulled out a win of 114 to Black's 109. Chattanooga was excited to be able to team up with such awesome girls and thanks Lucy Ferocious, of Burn City Rollers, for letting us get involved for such a good cause!

The Chattanooga Roller Girls had a blast at this year's ConNooga convention February 19-21.
