Shamrock Showdown: Maine Roller Derby’s First 2025 Travel Team Bout
Portland, Maine – February 21, 2025 – Join Maine Roller Derby for the first Travel Team showdown of the season at Happy Wheels in Westbrook on March 15, 2025. Our opponent is another local Maine league: Rock Coast Roller Derby. These leagues first played each other in 2011 with MRD taking the win. Over the years, the leagues have developed a healthy rivalry. Who will score the most this time?
MRD is proud to partner with the University of Southern Maine ASL Interpreting Program for the Shamrock Showdown bout to provide ASL interpretation for this bout. Deaf and Hard of Hearing members of our community will receive complimentary admission.
“We are so excited to welcome both Rock Coast and USM’s ASL Interpreting Program back to Westbrook,” said Sticky Situation. “I love getting to play against other Maine skaters who are as passionate about our sport as MRD is. I watched some of the Rock Coast skaters in their first bouts and I love that we’re all on our derby journeys together.”
In addition to the roller derby action, this event will offer a family-friendly atmosphere with food and beverage options, merchandise, and opportunities to meet the athletes. Attendees are encouraged to bring their friends and families to enjoy an evening of excitement and entertainment. Don’t miss your chance to witness the action and support your local roller derby athletes.
