What is roller derby?

Roller derby is a full-contact sport played by women on old-school quad roller skates. The teams play both offense and defence simultaneously. Modern roller derby is an international sport mainly dominated by all-female amateur teams. There are, however, a growing number of male, co-ed, and junior teams as well. Roller derby is one of the fastest growing women’s sports in the world.
