Winds of Change

The bout on August 27th ended with a 236 - 70 loss to the Tri City Rollergirls Venus Fly Tramps. The ladies of Tri City were amazing hosts, and great derby players!

The winds of change are moving through the Betties for 2012. Long time Betties players Lacy Brawler and Pretty Peeved have retired from the team, as have P Doddy and Diva Zapata. We will miss them, and wish them well. Although they won't be on the flat track, expect to see them in blue in the crowds on game day, cheering on the Betties! New players will be drafted to the team from the D-VAS on October 15th to fill our roster and compliment the team skillset. Buliding on the foundation laid by Hot Roller over the years, new Betties captains Misery Mae and titmouse will lead the team through the upcoming season. Expect good things to come for 2012!



You don't have to wait until the new year to see us play next though! On Saturday October 1st, we will face the Hammer City Harlots in our new home, The Bunker, just down the street from the Hangar. Doors open at 5pm, with the Betties hitting the track at 6pm. Following this bout will be CN Power vs. the Hammer City Eh! Team; two bouts for the price of one! You can't go wrong with a sweet deal like that - see you there!

Travelling to TriCity - August 27th!

The Betties are travelling to the Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo area on August 27th to challenge the TriCityRG Venus Fly Tramps in a double header roller derby show down. When we last met the Venus Fly Tramps in a 20 minute bout at Beast of the East 2011, the Fly Tramps walked away with the victory. Now that we're meeting in a full-length bout, we aim to turn the tables. Come on down and cheer us on!



The double header also features the Gore Gore Rollergirls against the Vicious Dishes!

SCB VS DTD this saturday!

Come out to the The Hanger at Downsview Park this weekend to check out some hard-hitting derby action as the Smoke City Betties take on the the Death Track Dolls.

Both teams are looking for their first ToRD season win in their second game of the season. The Betties have had some serious turn around since our last bout and will be hitting the track harder and tougher then you ever imagined. So grab on to your seats and build the beer-a-myids high this ones gonna be a night to remember.

Tickets can be purchased through our retail outlets, online at www.torontorollerderby.com or at the door.

Betties vs. Chicks Ahoy - This Saturday!

This Saturday we'll be throwing it down at The Hangar (Downsview Park) against the Chicks Ahoy, in our first regular season ToRD bout of 2011!!



Both teams have one away bout under their belts this year - the Chicks Ahoy! suffered a crushing 131-72 defeat at the hands of the RVRG Slaughter Daughters early in February, while the Betties took away an 81-79 win against the RVRG Riot Squad. This means almost nothing though, as the Slaughter Daughters is the more experienced of the two RVRG teams - what I'm saying, is that its sure to be one HELL of a tight game this weekend! BRING IT ON!

Tickets are on sale now online and in-store for this Saturday's bout. Last-minute decision makers will be able to purchase a ticket at the door.

Betties FTW!

This past Saturday we drove out butts out to Ottawa to take on the Rideau Valley Rollergirls Riot Squad - and WON! Thus snaps the losing streak that plagued the revamped Smoke City Betties in 2010, who have been working hard to change things for 2011. We're glad our hard work paid off, but it's not over! We'll be pushing it all through the season to give Toronto the best derby we can!

Ottawa super awesomely boutcast the game, which you can still watch online!

Period 1

Big thanks to everyone that's supported us and helped us be awesome, as well as to the Riot Squad for keeping us on our toes in a super exciting bout!

First practice of 2011!

Last night the Betties had their first official team practice of 2011 at Downsview - and what a practice it was! There was no "easing back into it", it was full on tits-out on the track.

Complimented by our new draft picks, and coaches that will keep us moving, the 2011 Betties are looking like a sharp bunch. The scent of change is in the air. We're going to BRING IT in 2011!

Stay tuned for pics and sneak peaks!
