About The Roller Derby
Roller derby is a roller-skating contact sport played on an oval track by two teams of five skaters. It is played by approximately 1,250 amateur leagues worldwide, mostly in the United States. A 60-minute roller derby game, or bout, is a series of two-minute timed jams. (from Wikipedia).
Venue
It is conveniently located in Decatur. Seating is general admission, meaning first-come-first-served to get the best seats. We have limited bleacher seating and the remaining is floor seating. We will be able to move around but you must stay off the track and out of any referee lanes, which are marked by caution tape. (They do have a photographer who is allowed inside the track, but they are pre-approved and know where to go to avoid the officials.)
Bouts
There are two bouts scheduled:
5:00pm - Toxic Shocks vs Glamma Rays
7:30pm - Apocalypstix vs Black Water Reapers
We will meet at the entrance (inside) at 7pm and photograph Bout 2. If you would like photograph both bouts, feel free to do so, just meet us by the entrance at 7pm.
Tickets
- Single Game: $20 Advance
- Double Header: $35 Advance
Please print the e-ticket that is sent to you via email and have it ready to present at the door. If you lose your printed ticket, please go to Will Call.

SPS has three standing meetings each month for its members and guests.
The First Friday Program and Competition features an outside speaker and a members' image competition. While competition entries at these monthly meetings are restricted to currently paid-up members, we ALWAYS welcome visitors interested in photography to attend.
The Learnshops (fourth Tuesdays) and Coffee & Critique (second Saturdays) are intended for members, but again, we welcome visitors.
If you attend regularly, we ask that you help support the club (which pays for the rental of the facilities, supplies, and equipment) by becoming a member!
