- "Having apparently worked out the details in secret with local promoters months ago, Hansor's team has taken up residence in the Sedratis Coliseum and has issued a challenge to the Destructors to evict him if they can!"
- ―A news report included in the fiftieth-anniversary edition of Galladinium's Galactic Datalog of Fantastic Technology
The Sedratis Coliseum was located in Sedratis City, within the Sedratis system. During the Galactic Civil War, the Core Gladiator Walker League team Hansor's Hooligans arrived in the city—the hometown of its rival team, Demelza's Destructors—and took up residence at the Sedratis Coliseum. The Hooligans then issued a challenge for the Destructors to try and evict it from the structure, which led to fans eager to witness the showdown overwhelming electronic ticketing systems over the following twelve hours.

- ―A news report included in the fiftieth-anniversary edition of Galladinium's Galactic Datalog of Fantastic Technology
The Core Gladiator Walker League (a gladiator walker pictured) team Hansor's Hooligans issued a challenge to the Demelza's Destructors team to attempt to evict it from the Sedratis Coliseum.
During the Galactic Civil War, the Core Gladiator Walker League team Hansor's Hooligans, led by Madrix Hansor, planned to issue a personal challenge to its bitter rival, the Demelza's Destructors team captained by Demelza Mintori. Secretly arranging the details with local promoters months in advance,[1] at some point between 0 ABY and 3 ABY,[4] the Hooligans—unexpectedly to the public—arrived in Sedratis City, the hometown of the Destructors, and took up residence in the Sedratis Coliseum. Hansor's team then issued a challenge to Mintori's team to attempt to evict Hansor.[1]
Over the subsequent period of less than twelve hours, the demand from excited fans of the sport eager to spend more than five hundred credits on tickets to see the showdown of the two teams had already overwhelmed electronic ticketing systems, and a sellout was expected by the following day's evening. On the next day after the Hooligans' challenge was issued, the event involving the Sedratis Coliseum was mentioned in a news report that was subsequently included in the fiftieth-anniversary edition of Galladinium's Galactic Datalog of Fantastic Technology.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
The Sedratis Coliseum was mentioned in Galladinium's Fantastic Technology, a 1995 sourcebook authored by Rick D. Stuart for use with West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[1]

The Essential Atlas and Galactic Cartography: Official Discussion on the Jedi Council Forums (Literature board; posted by jasonfry on December 11, 2007 at 7:59 AM; accessed February 2, 2024): "I wouldn't get your hopes up re alien homeworlds, beyond simple stuff like the Planetnamian species getting a Planetnamia on the map or things Dan and I can account for with a relatively quick reference." (backup link) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for Sedratis City in relation to the Sedratis system.
