New partnership with Winnipeg Roller Derby League to be announced


WHAT: More than bragging rights are on the line this fall for players from the Winnipeg Roller Derby League (WRDL). The league has partnered with Canadian Blood Services for the new WRDL Blood Donor Challenge.

“Our League strives to give back to our community and blood is something that is used in Manitoba everyday. We can all think of a time where a family member needed this service when sick or injured. Our members all want to do their part to raise awareness regarding donating blood and make sure that our local blood banks remain full,” says Laura Medwid (AKA Foxy FireCracksHer), Director of Operations.

WRDL teams Backseat Betties, The Corporation and Valkyries’ Wrath along with the league’s newest skaters (AKA Fresh Meat) and referees (AKA Zebra Crew) will battle it out to see which team can fill the most donor beds at the Winnipeg Blood Donor Clinic, 777 William Ave. The challenge is open to the public. To donate on behalf of your favourite team, please call 1 888 2 DONATE (1-888-236-6283).

Along with encouraging others to give, players will help raise awareness about the importance of blood donation at the 2011 Roller Derby Championship by wearing their ABO blood type on their uniforms. More than 2,000 fans are expected to attend the event on September 24 at Winnipeg Convention Centre. Tickets are available at www.ticketmaster.ca.

The WRDL Blood Donor Challenge runs from September 21 to October 25, 2011. For more information on challenge teams, visit Canadian Blood Services on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ManitobaBlood.

Patricia Bal, Community Development Coordinator, and team captains will be available for interview prior to donating blood.
