This is PARD’s first Women's Flat Track Derby Association-sanctioned game ever as the former became an officially chartered competitive league earlier in the spring.

Doors open at 2:30 p.m as PARD takes on Toronto Roller Derby starting at 3 p.m. with an open full contact scrimmage at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $10 in advance or at the door. Kids under 12 are free. 

PARD is also opening applications for anyone interested in the open scrimmage, volunteering, becoming a non-skating official with the league or being a vendor.
