In June 2017, the league announced it had updated its name from "North Star Roller Girls" to "North Star Roller Derby".[2][3]
Organization and teams
North Star Roller Derby was formed in June 2006 from the former TC Rollers organization.[4] North Star is a Limited Liability Company (LLC), formed pursuant to the laws of the State of Minnesota.[5] Skaters are not paid to play, and referees, announcers, and support staff are all volunteers. North Star is committed to partnering with local businesses and charitable organizations in an effort to strengthen and support the community at large.
North Star Roller Derby has four home teams: the Banger Sisters, Delta Delta Di, Kilmores, and the Violent Friends.[6] North Star also fields two traveling teams which compete against teams from other leagues, the Supernovas and the Northern Lights, composed of skaters from all four league teams.
