Bat Wing: LORD OF THE WINGS

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


I am Bat Wing. I referee for the CoMo Derby Dames (formerly Destruction Junction) in Columbia, Missouri. I really love my girls, but I'm not supposed to talk about it (because I am a ref and I am supposed to be impartial).
I am also a jammer for the Midwest Monsters, an all-male flat track roller derby league that is based in the Mid-West and encompasses several states, including Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, and Missouri! We meet in a different city each month and do full-league scrimmages. I love playing roller derby and refereeing, and I especially love all of the cool skaters, officials, mascots, fans, stalkers, etc. I get to meet when I travel around the region to various events!
~DERBY LOVE~
