Really exciting news for fans of flat track roller derby who've exhausted their travel budget and/or vacation time: WFTDA's East Regional and National tournaments will be televised. Just this morning, after extensive negotiation and discussion, member leagues voted to approve a deal with Mav TV covering the remaining 2007 tournaments. The events will be shot to tape and edited for broadcast within a few weeks of each event. Each bout will be broadcast as a separate episode, so you'll be able to enjoy all the action from each of the bouts.

Stay tuned for more details!
