- Arizona Derby Dames (AZDD) is an all-women's amateur roller derby league based in the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area. The league currently plays banked-track roller derby. AZDD was founded by four skaters, Suzy Homewrecker (XXX), Joan Threat (50), All The Way Mae (213) and Prima Donna (32). These skaters aspired for AZDD to become Arizona's first banked-track roller derby league. Suzy Homewrecker originally skated for TXRD Lonestar Rollergirls, one of the first leagues that was established of the current resurgence of roller derby, and the league featured on Rollergirls. These founding skaters were originally members of Arizona Roller Derby. AZDD normally holds one doubleheader bout per month. Between 2006 and 2008, these bouts were held at the in Phoenix. In late 2008, the league announced that the 2009 season would be held in the Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum. The Castle Sports Club is still the venue for Arizona Roller Derby and Desert Dolls Roller Derby. On March 20, 2010, AZDD played their first doubleheader at the Veteran's Memorial Coliseum using a newly designed banked track. The last known banked-track events in Arizona were in the 1960s with the Arizona Raiders of the National Skating Derby. The crowd, estimated to be over 4,000, is a record for the league and a record crowd for "resurgence era" roller derby in Arizona. Arizona Derby Dames became a founding member of the Roller Derby Coalition of Leagues in January 2012. (en)
