SWSR HAVE LANDED !!

WE MAKE IT TO THE ROLLER DERBY NATIONALS - "THE GREAT SOUTHERN SLAM" With the Rockettes safely landing !! SWSR have arrived safely in the land of Radelaide, it is a lot warmer than Sydney which was a relief, even with the sun is setting in, but we are finally safe and warm in our own little piece of Adelaide for the long weekend…. After hiring a bus SWSR’s Team Radelaide Rockettes drove to our Villas overlooking the beach, and have begun warming the house with drinks, laughs, food and of course the air conditioner !
Our support crew and Benchie staff and Skaters have settled in too.. a cute little place which we were lucky enough to secure before all the accommodation in Adelaide was booked out..
We will be travelling down the road to the local pub for some drinks before dinner, watch the night fall over the huge beach in front of us, before dropping off to sweet sleep.. Heaters on – Yes – no need, we aren’t in Sydney anymore ! ! SWSR are definitely not used to such beautiful scenery and can not wait to wake up in the morning to watch the sun rise over the amazing blue waters…
The accommodation is gorgeous, two villas, beach front views, and as a bunch of girls travelling together the abundance of bathrooms and mirrors are great… there will be no fighting in the morning for mirror space that’s for sure…. While we stay warm and cosy in our House after dinner, we will be sleeping and dreaming of all things derby in preparation for the big day weekend ahead of us tomorrow. LET SWSR’S BOUTING HISTORY BEGIN !! THE GREAT SOUTHERN SLAM IS WAITING FOR US !! Wish us the best of luck and we hope we make NSW in particular South west Sydney proud.
