“Skyline Cup”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The Skyline Cup is a women's roller derby trophy traded between New York's Gotham Girls Roller Derby and Chicago's Windy City Rollers as a prize awarded to the victorious team whenever teams from the two leagues directly compete.

Origins

The trophy was conceived and designed and commissioned by the Windy City Rollers in early 2010, in recognition of a strong intercity rivalry. The two teams' All-Star squads met in the WFTDA East Region finals in both 2007 and 2008, and in the finals of the WFTDA Championship in 2008.

Each league fields a variety of women's roller derby teams: All-Stars, B-Team, C-Team, and regular home teams. The two leagues have agreed that the trophy is 'on the line' each time any two teams from the two leagues meet in any full-length regulation public roller derby competition. The trophy is a symbol of the latest league victory, at any level of competition.

The trophy was initially awarded to Gotham Girls Roller Derby after their All-Stars' June 25, 2010 victory at the East Coast Derby Extravaganza in Feasterville, PA. The trophy was engraved to retroactively list prior meetings between the teams.
