Spokannibals & Inland EmPower Derby

Cheer on teams of badass local women as they throw elbows en route to victory at this weekend’s roller derby doubleheader. Two top Spokane teams — the Spokannibals and the Inland EmPower Derby’s Brass Belles — compete against opponents from across the state. Up first, the Brass Belles try to skate circles around Storm City Rollergirls' Shock Treatment, a league from Clark County. Then, longtime local rollers the Spokannibals face off with Tacoma’s Dockyard Derby Dames' Marauding Mollys. Even if you don’t know much about this rising sport, you’ll quickly be drawn in by the combination of roller skating and physicality.

Sat, June 27; bouts at 6 and 7:30 pm • $5-$10 • Roller Valley Skate Center • 9415 E. Fourth, Spokane Valley • spokannibals.com
