Road Trip!!
































So I was excited to head up to Newcastle to see the Steel City Derby Dolls take on the Dockyard Dames on their home turf. It was officially my first game and I was overwhelmed by the support and enthusiasm of the Newcastle crowd. I was almost deafened many times by there screams. It was hard to concentrate on the actual game as I started clicking away like mad. I positioned myself at the end of the ring, this is what they call suicide seating. I now know why they call it that. I was lucky to escape a couple of times. This made it even more exciting!
So around 400 photos later!! The game was over and the Steel City Dolls narrowly lost against the Dockyard Dames. The final round was tense and the girls gave it there hardest. Good on you girls, I am seriously NOT worthy!! You guys are amazing!!
I'd like to thank Jasmin for coming along and inspiring me and assisting me and also putting up with me screaming at the traffic and navigator man.

So everybody, I hope you have tickets for the next bout in Wollongong. I wouldn't miss it for the world :)
