As CRDL has been growing steadily and more skaters have reached the skill level to bout competitively, the league is expanding to four teams. In keeping with the Canberra linked team names established with the Surly Griffins and the Black ‘n’ Blue Belles, the two new teams have connections to the local region.

The Red Bellied Black Hearts will channel their feisty, slippery emblem, the red bellied black snake and the Brindabelters are looking forward to heading down from the backwoods to deliver a smashing debut season. While the league has retained the initial two team names, all the players have been re-drafted to ensure a spread of experienced and newer skaters across the four new team line-ups.

In September 2010 we’ll launch a short taster season of three games to introduce the teams to Canberra Derby fans ahead of a full season to be held in 2011.

The Vice City Rollers are CRDL’s representative team for interleague bouts. This team is drafted from CRDL home teams. The Rollers played their very first bout against Adelaide Roller Derby at the Great Southern Slam in June this year. The Rollers have more bouts coming up later this year….
