The History of TVRD

Twin Valleys Roller Derby was founded in 2017 as a fusion of Star City Roller Girls and New River Valley Roller Derby. In August of 2006, the Star City Roller girls was founded by Maureen O’Havok (a.k.a. Siobhan Haines). The team made its competitive debut in July 2007 against the Richmond Derby Demons. New River Valley Roller Girls was founded February 22, 2007 by Speed Junkie.  NRV Roller Girls were accepted as full members of the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) in December of 2011.

Today, Twin Valleys Roller Derby (TVRD)  exists to provide education to the people of the Southwest Virginia who would like to participate in and learn about the challenging and exciting sport of roller derby.  TVRD is committed to giving back to skaters and the community.  The league participates in community service and philanthropic initiatives to give back to the area that supports us.  We also strive to empower all individuals who participate to achieve a positive self-image and to increase their physical conditioning. Twin Valleys is made up of 30+ active members of all ages, backgrounds, shapes, sizes and abilities.  By joining forces, both teams grew bigger and stronger and represent Southwest Virginia's premier roller derby league.
