Support your local Roller Derby

Roller Derby is a completely DYI sport. We go by the saying, “for the skater, by the skater”. That means we fund our own training facility, travel costs, uniforms, and so on. But of course there are ways to support us!

Hear from our skaters!

Derby is the love of my life. It cheers me up on bad days and after playing, however bruised and exhausted, I feel full of energy; it’s like a natural high. I hope that we will grow old and happy together.

The fast actions and being on roller skates are what got me interested. The amazing community keeps me interested!

I used to think I wasn't a sporty or competitive type. And then I discovered Derby. I love learning new skills and challenging myself, and as it turns out: booping people over on wheels!

League History

A big shout out to the people who helped build this league!

In June of 2010, Zafanja (aka PolkaShot) founded the first and only roller derby league in Utrecht. On a little basketball field in Overvecht, a small group gathered to skate their very first laps. Shortly after, this group moved to the Veemarkthallen where they had actual roller derby practice, first once and then twice a week. Eventually, a board arose and committees, and Dom City Dolls (now Dom City Roller Derby) became an official league.

In the past years, our league has grown immensely, our first scrimmage is ancient history, we’ve had many amazing bouts, and the Disaster Dome is our current training location. Our two teams: Dom City Dolls and ThunderDoms, actively and enthusiastically compete against other roller derby leagues all across the Netherlands, Europe, and sometimes the whole world!

We are recruiting Officials!
