Lincolnshire Bombers travel to WFTDA Tournament

Posted on by

As if travelling abroad to Copenhagen to play Roller Derby wasn’t enough for The Lincolnshire Bombers Roller Girls already this year, we are now playing in an International WFTDA tournament in Gent!

The Lincolnshire Bombers Roller Girls are going to Gent to skate in A Skate Odyssey (http://www.2013skod.com) and we need your help more than ever now!

The Lincolnshire Bombers have been part of WFTDA, as a full member league since June 2012, with the intention of one day being a team to be invited to a WFTDA tournament. We thought the day would be sometime in the future but it has arrived sooner than we thought. From 10-12 May we’ll be taking part in our first WFTDA tournament and we’ll need some extra funds to get there. So if you’re feeling generous please hit our donate button and send us some spare change. Alternatively if you need some motivation to donate…

Many of our member of our travelling members, as well so some very supportive non-bouting members, are taking part in a epic bike ride from Skegness to Lincoln; ending at Yarborough Leisure Centre on 28th April. Look out for them on the day with donation buckets, welcome them back to Lincoln by joining them at Cathedral Square or donate in advance here.

Sponsor Us to Copenhagen

Posted on by

We’re offering a one of opportunity to companies looking to sponsor us to Copenhagen. As part of our journey the all star team of The Lincolnshire Bombers will be wearing ‘Bombers on Tour’ t-shirts. Don’t be fooled these aren’t t-shirts worn to identify us as drunken louts but as an empowering sports team traveling abroad. As part of the idea behind ‘Bombers on Tour’ t-shirts we are offering companies and friends of the bombers the chance to have their logo travel with us on our t-shirts, of course for a small fee.

For more information contact sponsorship@lincolnshire-bombers.com who can give you further details and a package tailored just for you.

Lincolnshire Bombers do art…

Posted on by

The Lincolnshire Bombers are an artistic bunch and we have decided to collate all our creativity and talent into one night.

For one night only at Angel Coffee House on Free School Lane, Lincoln, 7pm – 9pm we will be showcasing some of our best artistic work ranging from illustration to photography and everything in between with 10% of the cost price, on everything sold, going to our Copenhagen fundraising (see header for how far we are, and how far we’ve got to go). They’ll be coffee, art talk and general schmoozing as well as the good feeling you get when you help a good cause.

Not sure you can afford a centre art piece? They’ll be donation buckets and coffee!

Did we mention the coffee?

LBRG to take on Copenhagen!

Posted on by

Lincolnshire Bomber Roller Girls are very excited to announce that we have secured a European match against Copenhagen Roller Derby in June 2013! This is an exciting opportunity for us, but of course it attracts a price. We are now looking for sponsorship to raise funds to help get us to Copenhagen, and in exchange we are offering an attractive brand exposure package.

For a donation of £100, we are willing to offer:

• 2 x VIP tickets to our next home bout
• A poster or banner at our next home bout
• Listing under our sponsors on the LBRG website
• Links on our social media pages (to include Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr)
• Shout outs on our Radio show’s podcast
• Business logo on our ‘Bombers on Tour’ t-shirts (which we would wear whilst travelling)

It will cost approximately £250 to get one rollergirl to Copenhagen, and the full roster consists of 14 rollergirls. LBRG is a ‘not for profit’ organisation, run by the skaters. Without sponsors it is likely that we will be unable to partake in this match, therefore missing the chance to build up stronger links with other leagues and representing womens sport on an international level.

Should you wish to contact us regarding a donation amount and/or package, please do get in touch; if you need something tailor made to your needs this can be negotiated.
