Congratulations to the 2005 Season Champions, the Derby
Liberation Front!
Rat City Rollergirls, LLC, (RCRG) is Seattle, WA’s
first and only all female roller derby league. Named after
an “old-school” term for the south part of town,
RCRG was established via a grassroots movement of strong-minded
women in April 2004. The league is comprised of about 60
member/owners and includes four teams: Derby Liberation
Front | Sockit Wenches | Grave Danger | Throttle Rockets
What is roller derby and how is is played?
Roller derby is full-contact competitive roller skating
on four-wheeled skates around an oval track (in this case
it's a flat track) in a counter clockwise direction. Each
game, or bout consists of two 14-minute-long periods, which
are divided into two-minute-long jams. Jams are about to
start when there are five gals on the track from each team.
Each team gets one pivot, one jammer and three blockers
on the track to start the jam.
