April’s derby schedule is flat insane. There is a bout night every Saturday next month except one, and there’s also a Friday thrown in for good measure.
Can you handle it?
Luckily, there’s only one conflict in April, and frankly, the conflicting leagues more or less serve different audiences. Still, preparedness.
