WFTDA LEAGUES FEATURED ON NBC’S TODAY SHOW JULY 23, 2007!
As Women’s Flat Track Derby gains increasing thunder this year leading up to the final 2007 tournaments, NBC’s Today Show has taken notice, and produced an in-depth segment on the modern roller derby revolution featuring member leagues the Charm City Roller Girls of Baltimore, Maryland (www.charmcityrollergirls.com) and New York’s Gotham Girls Roller Derby (www.gothamgirlsrollerderby.com) slated to air Monday July 23, 2007.
The segment sends Today Show personality Natalie Morales to Baltimore to practice with the Charm City Roller Girls, and includes footage of their June home league bout as well as interviews. On the morning of the 23rd, the Gotham Girls take over the Plaza at Rockefeller Center, and will be skating live demos throughout the morning’s broadcast!
As the countdown to WFTDA’s East Regionals - Heartland Havoc (www.ohiorollergirls.com/site/heartlandHavoc) and National Championships - Texas Shootout (www.txrollergirls.com/2007wftda) begins, expect to see more of WFTDA leagues taking over the national airways!
