Smack O Lantern Tornado Sirens vs. Maine Port Authorities
Naptown Roller Girls present the first bout of season 5: Smack-o-Lantern. It is a single-header bout featuring Naptown's Tornado Sirens vs. Maine's Port Authorities. This will be Maine's first time playing in Indianapolis, and their second time bouting against the Tornado Sirens, after a narrow loss at the East Coast Extravaganza in Philly this past June. This is sure to be a grueling matchup against two highly ranked teams in their respective regions!
The Tornado Sirens, along with the Warning Belles and Naptown's Third Alarm are all competing teams for Indianapolis' own Naptown Roller Girls. NRG is a group of awesome gals from Indianapolis, Indiana who want to do one thing: SKATE.

We've been dedicated to skating, practicing, falling on our asses and getting back up to bring you action-packed bouts. For more information, head to www.naptownrollergirls.com.
What is roller derby?
Roller derby consists of two teams of five skaters each on the track. Each team has one scoring player called a jammer, who starts at the back and wears a star on her helmet. The rest of the skaters are called blockers, and they form a pack. The blockers get a head start on the jammers when the first whistle is blown; the jammers start sprinting at the sound of the second whistle. The jammers have to get through the pack and back around another lap before they can start scoring. On their second and future trips through, they get a point for every opponent they pass. Everyone else tries to stop the other teams' jammer from passing while helping their own jammer through. The team with the most points at the end of the bout wins.
What this means for you? Fun, action and excitement!
