London Roller Derby is a flat track roller derby league and a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).

Founded in April 2006 as London Rollergirls by Courtney Welch (derby name Bette Noir), Lauren Langston and Danielle West, London is the oldest roller derby league in the United Kingdom. London Roller Derby has an all-star travel team, London Brawling, whose name is inspired by the song London Calling by UK punk rock band The Clash.
