Ridge Meadows Roller Derby


Ridge Meadows Roller Derby, founded by Annie Autopsy (Liane Bennett) in July 2011. Located in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada. Seeing as quite a few local derby teams would only train those with some skating skills, Annie created RMRD for juniors and those who would other wise never have a chance to learn the sport of Roller Derby. Taking those who could not skate and turning them into a new Roller Derby team within the year was quite the feat, but was done and the Haney Hooligans were formed. RMRD is a stepping stone for those who wish learn to skate and get their basic derby skills in a fun environment. They are classed as a beer league whose emphasis is on fun and advancing in the sport of roller derby in a safe and low key environment.
