YourHub.com and the Rocky Mountain Rollergirls are big fans of strong women, whether their strength comes through at home, in the workplace or at the gym. Strength comes in all flavors and can be mental or physical. We want to know about the strong women in Colorado and give them the recognition they deserve. One of these women could be your wife, sister, coworker, grandmother or friends. Or she could be you.

About the Rocky Mountain Rollergirls
The Rocky Mountain Rollergirls are Denver's original flat-track roller derby team. The league includes three home teams: The Red Ridin' Hoods, The Sugar Kill Gang and The Contenders, which features skaters destined to earn their way onto the travel team. The 5280 Fight Club features the
league's top skaters, who compete with teams across the nation at home and on the road.
Season ticket holders get into all of the league's home bouts at the Bladium Sports Club and Fat City in Littleton.
This season the 5280 Fight Club is hosting teams from across the nation, including Chicago, Tucson, Ariz., Topeka, Kan., and Providence, R.I. at our home track at the Bladium Sports Club. They will head out to take on the nation in Los Angeles (whose team wants a second chance to try to beat Fight Club) and Baltimore, Md. Our newest team, the Contenders, are destined for Fight Club's legacy and will host Olympia, Wash.'s Oly Rollers and Topeka at home and will head to California to take on the San Diego Derby Dolls in May!
The Sugars and Hoods will open the season on Feb. 9 at Fat City with a Sibling Rivalry bout that will feature all of the league's eligible skaters in a bragging rights match. The home teams will take on home teams from other leagues in the state and host out-of-state teams.
