Roller derby in Australia
Teams competing in Hobart, Australia, in November 2010
Governing bodySkate Australia

There are over eighty-nine roller derby leagues in Australia.[1] in women's, men's, co-ed and junior categories.

Governance

[edit]
flow chart. roller derby is answerable to state governance.[2]
Chart showing governance of roller derby inside Skate Australia. Derived from information found on page 10 of Skate Australia's strategic plan.

Skate Australia provides a minimal level of insurance for some roller derby leagues in Australia. According to Skate Australia's 2009–2013 strategic plan, the governance of roller derby is different from other sports affiliated with the organisation. Roller derby lacks state committees, with leagues going straight to the Development Officer and Sport Services Administrator.[3] In 2006, there were no roller derby memberships in Skate Australia. By 2008, three percent of all members were from the roller derby community.[3]

[edit]

Roller derby is played in Tasmania, with two leagues based in Hobart, the Convict City Roller Derby League.[56] and South Island Sirens. and Two leagues in Launceston; Devil State Derby League and Van Diemen Rollers.

Australian Capital Territory

[edit]
Canberra Roller Derby bout Brindabelters vs Black and Blue Belles at Southern Cross Stadium on 24 September 2011

There are two roller derby leagues in the Australian Capital Territory: The Canberra Roller Derby League[57] and the Varsity Derby League.[58] The sport was introduced to Canberra in 2008.[59] by Bullseye Betty, Dr Hell, Roulette Rough and Peachy Keen.[60] The league had its first bouting season in 2009, and tickets were quickly bought out.[61] By June 2010, the Canberra Roller Derby League was competing in interstate bouts.[62]

In the early years of roller derby in the ACT, the presence of the Canberra Roller Derby League helped change the perception of the sport in the capital from an entertaining sideshow to a mainstream women's participation sport.[60] In 2011, to accommodate the growing interest in the sport, a student organisation expanded roller derby into the Australian National University.[63] In late 2011, this organisation unaffiliated from the University and became Varsity Derby League. Varsity has a strong focus on inclusiveness and in 2014 established Canberra's first (and currently only) men's roller derby team.

Northern Territory

[edit]

Roller derby is played in the Northern Territory. Darwin Rollergirls,[64] based in Darwin were the first league established in the NT. There is a league based in Alice Springs called the Malice Springs Roller Derby League[65] The first modern roller derby bout between these two leagues in October 2011 was entitled Highway to Roll and drew a sell-out crowd.[66]
