Roller Derby of Central Kentucky returns to Central Bank Center for doubleheader

Roller Derby of Central Kentucky returned to Central Bank Center on July 11 with a doubleheader that put both its A and B teams on the floor in one night. The Lexington league framed the date as two games for one ticket, with a 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. window and admission set at $15 online before rising to $20 at the door.

The home date was part of ROCK’s 2026 season plan, which listed four Central Bank Center appearances: June 20, July 11, Aug. 8 and Sept. 12. Founded in 2006, the women’s flat track league is based in Lexington and has built its home schedule around a compact run of dates that keeps the focus on in-town access and repeat attendance.

The July 11 card featured the ROCKstars, the league’s A team, and the IndieROCKers, its B team. That setup gave the night a more layered feel than a single bout, because a doubleheader lets fans see multiple lineups, more tactical shifts and the kind of mid-night adjustments that can change how a league looks from one game to the next.

For first-time spectators, the pricing made the barrier to entry relatively low. VisitLEX listed tickets for children under 12 at $12, while the league’s ticketing information put the adult price at $15 before the day of the event. ROCK also listed a season pass at $45 for all four home games, a sign that the July 11 date was meant to sit inside a longer summer and early fall home slate rather than function as a one-off exhibition.

The venue listing placed the event at Central Bank Center, 430 W. Vine Street in Lexington, giving ROCK a downtown stage for one of the city’s more distinctive live sports offerings. With two bouts, four scheduled home dates and a 19-year run behind it, the league used the July 11 doubleheader to turn a single weekend date into a full-scale showcase for its home season.
