Nashville Rollergirls

Here’s a sport that’s not unique to Nashville, but it’s so different and so much fun, just had to tell you about it! Roller Derby is back, with hundreds of all-women flat track teams across the country.

Today’s revival of roller derby keeps the athleticism of the original sport and adds punk attitude and showmanship and sassy, feisty, aggressive competition.

The Nashville Rollergirls (NRG) are an amateur all women flat track roller derby team.  They knock each other down, they look good doing it, and they skate away smiling.  This sport is real, and the girls have real fun doing it.

The NRG started in 2006 and has three teams who compete with each other on an intra-league basis: the Assault Rivals , the X-Pistols, and the Damsels of Distress. Traveling to compete with other cities is the NRG’s all-star team, the Nashville RollerGirls. Read more
