The Victorian Roller Derby League (VRDL) is a women’s Flat Track Roller Derby league, however men are encouraged to train and skate in supporting roles.

The VRDL was founded at the start of 2007. To date the VRDL has attracted a lot of interest, not just from girls wanting to sign up, but also from the media reminiscent of the sport’s American beginnings. Roller Derby is currently experiencing a huge revival worldwide, spurred on by skaters who are fully responsible for the formation and running of their own leagues. The sport is still in its infancy here in Australia, but overseas it already has a huge following. There are now over 220 leagues worldwide that are registered with the International Derby Roster. There are teams in the USA, Canada, England, New Zealand, Ireland, Scotland, Sweden and Germany. Australia currently has leagues in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane. VRDL competition bouts are scheduled to begin in February 2008.
