Tri-City Roller Girls is a women's flat-track roller derby league in Kitchener, Ontario. On December 1, 2010, Tri-City became the third Canadian roller derby league to be granted membership in the Women's Flat Track Derby Association,[1] an organization that thus far, is overwhelmingly composed of American leagues.[2] Having only completed two full home seasons, Tri-City gained membership status with WFTDA faster than their Toronto-based sisters at Toronto Roller Derby.[3], The two house teams, The Vicious Dishes and The Venus Fly Tramps, play each other at home, as well as against other leagues' house teams. The All-Star team, or Travel Team, The Tri-City Thunder, plays other leagues' All-Star/Travel Teams, and will qualify for WFTDA ranking. Tri-City has been placed in the North Central region, making them one of three Canadian leagues in that region; the others are Toronto and the Hammer City Roller Girls.[4] League skater Motorhead Molly played for Team Canada at the 2011 Roller Derby World Cup.[5]
