The Carolina Rollergirls’ derby is NOT a wrasslin’ style circus act. Staged fighting has been replaced with walloping take-outs. Our fast-dodging jammers are too hungry for points to slow down for silly acrobatics. But the hits keep getting harder every season, and we like to show off every chance we get!
Flat-track roller derby requires skill, strategy and a fearless defiance of good sense. Our game is a fierce competition, fired by a rock n’ roll attitude & a free-wheeling spirit. We may be a mischievous crew of shenanigan-charged ladies, but when the whistle blows, playtime is over.
The Carolina Rollergirls are proud members of the Womens Flat-Track Derby Association (WFTDA), which we helped form in 2004. We’re working tirelessly with leagues across the nation to standardize and promote national competition.
The first national WFTDA sanctioned tournament, the Dust Devil, was held in Tucson, AZ in February 2006. The top 20 leagues from across the country battled it out over three days, and the Carolina Rollergirls placed 8th, establishing our league as one of skilled skaters who have a passion for doing derby right.
Roller derby is a sport for women who play life by a different set of rules. We’re proud, hard-working, independent-minded women. We’re vixens, wise-crackers and naughty troublemakers. And we’re big-hearted women ready to get down and derby.
