Description
WE ARE REAL, WE ARE STRONG, WE ARE ATHLETIC. WE ARE MAINE ROLLER DERBY.
Maine Roller Derby (MRD) is Maine’s first women’s flat track roller derby league. We are a proud member league of the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA), and are one of the hundreds of leagues across the nation that have embraced the quickly-growing sport of roller derby as it is skated on a flat track. MRD seeks to foster professional, personal and athletic advancement for all the league’s members through training for, promoting and playing the sport of roller derby. The league regularly recruits new skaters and volunteers and hosts a home season February-June, and September-December, along with several fundraising events throughout the year.
