Subject and Association Descriptionhttps://www.carolinarollerderby.com/about:
Carolina Roller Derby is the original Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) league from Raleigh, North Carolina. Formed in January 2004, it has been our mission to bring an alternative sport to Raleigh while training for national roller derby competition. The league operates as a non-profit 501c3 organization and is run for the skaters, by the skaters, with the support of numerous sponsors and volunteers. Carolina Roller Derby members are smart, strong and amazing athletes who work tirelessly to build and be a part of a successful league and roller derby community.2
Carolina Roller Derby is comprised of all backgrounds including, Ph.D.s, Master’s Degrees, businesswomen, medical professionals, artists, teachers, students, and mothers, all of whom commit many hours a week to practice and physical training. When not on skates, practicing or playing roller derby, league members can found doing volunteer work. Skaters, volunteers and sponsors alike commit endless hours for the advancement of the league and the sport of roller derby. The league is made up of local skaters from the Triangle. These local CRD skaters vie for a roster spot on one of the two inter-league teams that compete against teams from other cities. The inter-league teams consist of the Carolina All-Stars and the Carolina Bootleggers; both teams travel to other leagues to compete. These inter-league travel teams take the top skaters and match them up against other WFTDA teams across the nation.
