Recipe for a Derby Bout

Posted February 26, 2010 - 3:15pm by allicatraz

OHRG is getting ready to start off our fifth season in just over a month.  And that means that the work towards what we call “Bout Production” has already begun.  There’s a million little (and big) jobs involved with getting everything ready to welcome our fans, friends and family into a game.

About two months before, we’re getting our online sales set up, printing tickets, ordering flyers and advertising. At 30 days out, we’re doing the administrative paperwork: making sure our insurance is in order, getting our team charters and rosters are submitted to WFTDA and to the other team, making sure the venue is all set for us to come in. We’re making sure merch is ordered or made, getting the programs ready, making sure all our new rookies are properly outfitted with jerseys and uniforms. Referees are getting their crew in order, from the home and visiting leagues, and around our region.
