Hogtown Roller Derby, founded as the Greater Toronto Area Rollergirls (GTAR), is a women's flat track roller derby league based in Toronto, Ontario. Founded in 2007, Hogtown Roller Derby is a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).[1]
History
The league was founded as Greater Toronto Area Rollergirls in early 2007 by Cynthia Brooks, known as "Splat Benatar" as Toronto's first not-for-profit roller derby league.[2][1] In 2009, its skaters included a nanny, an insurance broker and an actress.[3] The league consists of two teams, which compete against teams from other leagues.
By 2011, GTAR was one of three roller derby leagues in Toronto.[4] In July, it was accepted as an apprentice member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association.[5]
Several skaters from GTAR were involved in the 2011 Roller Derby World Cup, which was hosted by Toronto Roller Derby. Three then-league members took part: Canadian Psycho was selected to skate for All-Ireland Roller Derby and Sloppy Boggins was chosen as assistant coach for Team Sweden, while Lee Way Wreck'em was an alternate for Team Canada.[6]
On December 23, 2013, GTAR was made a full WFTDA member league.[7]
In May 2018, the league announced a rebrand as Hogtown Roller Derby, borrowing on the nickname "Hogtown" for Toronto.[8]
