ROLLER Derby fans need not travel far to get a fix of their favourite sport this weekend.
Mean Valley Roller Girls are hosting “Bout to the Future” at the Catmose Sports Centre, Oakham, tomorrow (Saturday, February 4) from 2pm to 6pm.
It is also an opportunity for people who are interested in the sport to come along and see what it is all about in a fun-filled family-friendly spectacular featuring Team Gremlins, Team Goonies and Team Ghostbusters, as well as air guitar and “Mallet’s Mallet” competitions for the audience.
Skaters from all over the country, including players from Team England and Team Ireland, will be taking part.
