Wakey Wheeled Cats Roller Derby is set to hold its annual spring tournament this weekend (Saturday, April 29).

Team captain, Danielle, Millea, said: “Our team has existed in Wakefield since 2009 and this will be our second tournament since lockdown in 2020.

"We’ve put this tournament on as a lot of local teams are still building their teams back up. This will be a good chance for people to come and skate.”

The next recruitment drive for players will take place in June or July. To keep up to date, visit: https://www.facebook.com/WakeyWheeledCats
