Dallas Derby Devils
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Infobox".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". The Dallas Derby Devils (DDD) is a flat track roller derby league in Dallas, Texas and surrounding area of Ft. Worth, Texas. Founded in November 2004, the Dallas Derby Devils is the original North Texas roller derby league with a current roster of over one hundred active skaters, making DDD one of the largest flat track derby leagues in the southern United States. The Dallas Derby Devils are an original member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).[1]
The Dallas Derby Devils have completed sell-out home seasons since 2006 featuring the five home teams that comprise the league; The Death Row Rumblers, The High Seas Hotties, The Slaughterers, The Suicide Shifters, and The Wrecking Crew. Skaters of these five teams make up an All-Star Travel Team for the Dallas Derby Devils called the Army of Darkness, that compete in interleague play against other WFTDA member leagues.
Since 2008, league games are held at the NYTEX Sports Centre in North Richland Hills, Texas.[2][3]
The Dallas Derby Devils is a skater-owned and skater-operated 501(c)3 Domestic Non-Profit organization.
Teams
The Dallas Derby Devils has 7 teams: an all-star travel team known as the Army of Darkness an all-star b-team the Battalion of Doom, and five home teams, the Death Row Rumblers, the High Seas Hotties, the Slaughters, the Suicide Shifters and the Wrecking Crew.[4]
In 2018, the league integrated the Rolling Rebellion,[5] a junior roller derby team competing in JRDA tournaments.[6] This expanded Dallas' program to include youth ages 7-17 years of age.
Upon the return to gameplay from COVID-19 restrictions in 2021, the Dallas Derby Devils developed the Hellraisers. This open-gender team competes under the WFTDA and USA Roller Sports (USARS) rulesets. The Hellraisers is a reboot of the beloved original Dallas Derby Devils travel team, the Hell Razors.
