Home double header on 28 November

In this year’s Home Season, Auld Reekie Roller Girls three home teams – the Cherry Bombers, Leithal Weapons and Skatefast Club – have battled it out in three fast and furious games, all of which will culminate in November’s grand final.

The Skatefast Club had a decisive win over Leithal Weapons in the first game of the Home Season, before the Leithals rallied with a win against the Cherry Bombers in the second game. Following a rollicking game in early November in which Skatefast Club beat the Cherry Bombers, we’re set for a dramatic finish to the season as the Leithal Weapons takes on the Skatefast Club, juking it out for supremacy. The grand final will be a double-header, with the third-placed home team, the Cherry Bombers, taking on guest team – The Rolling Bones.

Both games will take place on Saturday 28 November at Meadowbank Sports Stadium on London Road.

Doors open at 1pm, so come along and view our cake, merchandise and local vendors stalls before the first game begins at 1.30pm.

ARRG has arranged a special license for a bar, and there will be amazing half-time entertainment and a charity fundraising raffle. There will also be separate seating areas for families and young children, and a children’s craft corner to keep little ones amused.

Tickets are £6 in advance, £8 on the door, available from Brown Paper Tickets:

ARRG has also introduced new prices for unwaged and Senior (over 65’s) fans at £5 per ticket, as well as free entry for disability leisure card holders and a carer.
