E-Ville Dead go to D2 Playoffs
UPDATE!!!
The Dead arrived seeded 15th and blew away all the odds to finish in 8th place!!!
Coming out of the gate strong against Tuscon (seeded 2nd), they beat the predictor to finish behind their biggest opponents with a 101 point spread.
With their heads held high they took to the track once again on Friday evening for a nail biting win of only 8 points to eliminate the Middlesbrough Roller Derby (199-191) securing another 2 games.
After a well deserved rest the Dead laced up for their third game of the tournament against Bear City early Saturday evening taking a 20 point win (207-187) and finished off the weekend on Sunday with a grudge match against Oklahoma Victory dolls to take 8th place overall.
If you missed the action or would like to watch it again, head over to the WFTDA Youtube Channel. Recordings of all the games will be stored there within the next week or so.
Overall the Dead had a fantastic weekend and are excited to do it all over again next season!!!
Our page will stay live until the end of the month so it not too late to help us out!

The E-Ville Dead are going to Pittsburgh, PA for the D2 Playoffs!!! Money raised from our campaign will help cover travel costs associated with this prestigious opportunity.
Over the last 6 months, the Dead have travelled more than 12,000 kms, spent over a weeks worth of nights away from the comfort of their homes and pushed their limits climbing over 38 spots to get the long awaited invite to the D2 Playoffs.
Culled from the best players from the league's three house teams, the E-Ville Dead have been unstoppable this season. The Dead have travelled across Canada and the US to compete in tournaments to make their climb through the WFTDA Ranks to make the 2017 D2 Playoffs to be held in Pittsburgh, PA, August 18-20, 2017.
The Dead left a mark at the Skate to Thrill tournament in St. Louis, Missouri going 3-0 in March then came in as the underdogs at Mayday Mayhem in Loveland, Colorado placing 2nd out of 16 teams from all around the world.
