Question of the week: Do you have a favourite sport and/or team that you support in London? "You don't get a lot of three-day eventing in London, Olympics notwithstanding, but you do get roller derby!
Fast-paced contact sport on wheels - I don't have the nerve to play myself, but it's a fantastic spectator sport, and the London Roller Girls are my regular fix. This year they've moved to larger and swisher accommodations in Earls Court, so there's a bigger crowd and better facilities, but they've kept the warm welcome and the inclusive ethos - really, how many sports are there that issue a general invitation to all their fans for the after party?
As for teams - London Brawling when they're playing teams from outside London, of course, and within the London league? I'm a Steam Rollers fan, which meant that Saturday's bout against the Harbour Grudges was a nailbiter, and a hard-won victory!
Tickets for the final bout of the year - 11th December - will be on sale soon."- Miss Alice
