Ted Reeve Arena

Home of the GTA Rollergirls! I have only been here for roller derby-​related activities, so I will review the arena as an athlete and spectator.
The surface slickness changes depending on the temperature, but the last time I skated here it was slightly sticky, so a harder wheel was helpful. The floor is polished concrete and the outline of a standard WFTDA track has been lightly painted directly on the floor, for ease of laying down a track quickly.
The suicide seating is great but there are no bleachers, so make sure you bring a folding chair. There is arena seating but it is behind glass, so it’s a little better to sit at track level. Both suicide seating and arena seating have licensed areas so you have have alcohol while watching a bout.
The arena itself is a five-​minute walk from Main Street subway station, which is convenient. There are not too many bars around the area though, making it almost necessary to have a car to get to an after party.

Last night we watched Rollerderby for the first time. It was fun, coffee and Mill Street brew was available. We just weren’t well prepared for how chilly it is in the dome
