Charlottesville Derby Dames Tickets

The Charlottesville Derby Dames (CDD) are Charlottesville, Virginia’s first skater-run, flat-track roller derby league and a proud 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Founded in 2007, CDD has built a community around competitive play, athleticism, and fan-friendly bouts. The league fields travel teams (All Stars and Belmont Bruisers) and home teams (Downtown Maulers and Blue Ridge Bombshells), creating action-packed bouts that showcase fast skating, strategic blocking, and high-flying jams. CDD joined the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) as an apprentice in 2012 and earned full member status in 2012–2013, cementing their place in the national roller derby landscape. After a pause caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the league revived in 2024–2025 and has since returned to regional play within the Virginia Derby ecosystem, including events hosted away from Charlottesville in 2025.

Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the sport, Charlottesville Derby Dames offer a welcoming, energetic experience. We’ve got you covered for upcoming bouts, how to secure tickets, and where to watch the action live or online.

Key legacy moments include the league’s first home bout in October 2009, hosting the “Virginia is for Shovers” event in 2012, and multiple playoff appearances (Division 1 in 2015 and Division 2 in 2016). The Dames have trained and competed at venues like Charlottesville Main Street Arena, delivering thrilling performances and building a loyal local following. In 2025, look for bouts at the Peninsula Family Skating Center in Newport News, VA, with notable matchups such as Phantoms vs Charlottesville Derby Dames (Sept 14, 2025) and the Fall Brawl 2025 on November 9, 2025.
