Roller Derby Charity Tournament

Louisey Rider Cup

Coming in 2025

It'll soon be time for

The Louisey Rider Cup 2025

The Louisey Rider Cup is an annual roller derby tournament hosted by Nottingham Roller Derby. It has been created to celebrate the life of skater Louise Wright, aka Louisey Rider #66, who was sadly taken from us in a cycling accident in 2014. 

A key part of the UK roller derby calendar, this annual event has so far made over £27,000 for road safety charity Brake. And it will be back at Harvey Hadden Sports in 2025, celebrating ten years of glittery roller derby awesomeness. Watch this space...

More important details...

The Louisey Rider Cup will be held at Harvey Hadden Sports Village, Nottingham, NG8 4PB in 2025.  

Skater tickets are hot property and the six teams are made up of players from teams across the UK and even a few players from further a field. 

The six teams will compete in the day-long tournament which is made up of 9 half-hour games (6 group games and 3 deciders). 

Bring a pen and grab your tournament programme at the door so that you can keep tabs on all of the action. 

Harvey Hadden is wheelchair accessible with step-free access to the hall and accessible toilets. Entry is free for accompanying carers.

We are committed to making LRC a safe space for everyone involved. With this in mind, we retain the right to refuse admission to anyone we feel may threaten this. Furthermore, we reserve the right to remove people from the tournament or the afterparty if their conduct jeopardises the safety and well-being of attendees.

Tickets will be on sale 16th Feb at 6pm. More info coming soon. 

Roller Derby is an inclusive sport and we'll passionately defend every skaters right to compete. The Louisey Rider Cup is now and forever open to all however a player identifies. 

All we ask is that you have recent experience playing games or scrims for a team. The tournament reserves the right to remove any player that is deemed unsafe.
