Suburbia Roller Derby (SRD) is a roller derby league based in Yonkers, New York. Founded in 2007, Suburbia Roller Derby is a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association.[1]

History[edit]

Suburbia was founded in by Slim Fast and Suffah Kate,[2] two former members of the CT RollerGirls.[3] The league has three home teams, plus two travel teams which compete against teams from other leagues.

The league began bouting in late 2007 and, by mid-2008, it had more than thirty skaters.[4] In February 2009, it became a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association,[5] and in 2010, it hosted "Derby in the Burbs", that year's WFTDA Eastern Regional Tournament.[6] In 2013, Suburbia qualified for WFTDA Playoffs for the first time, as the tenth seed at the Division 2 tournament in Kalamazoo, Michigan.[7] Suburbia went winless for the weekend, including a 233-221 loss to Queen City Roller Girls, to finish in tenth place.[8] Suburbia returned to Division 2 Playoffs in 2014 as the ninth seed at the tournament in Duluth, Minnesota.[9] Suburbia made it to the fifth place game but lost to Treasure Valley Rollergirls 236-111 and finished in sixth place.[10]
