About Us

Lafayette Roller Derby is proud to be Tippecanoe County’s flat track roller derby team, based in Lafayette, Indiana. LRD was founded in 2008 to encourage women’s leadership, empowerment, camaraderie, and athleticism.

Seeking Volunteers for the 2019 Season!
We always need help making our home bouts a success! Our volunteers receive FREE pizza and FREE admission. A quick 5-minute training session will prepare you to help with post-game tear-down and general event coordination. The more, the merrier!

In addition to competing throughout the Midwest, LRD is proud to host a number of home games throughout the year, currently at the Tippecanoe Country Fairgrounds.

LRD takes pride in community engagement. A percentage of all ticket sales (plus funds raised during home bouts) supports a local charity work in Tippecanoe County. Thanks to your support, we were able to give The Girl Scouts of Central Indiana almost $700 in 2017 and over $400 to the BackPack Program run by the Rotary Club of Lafayette in 2018. As a grassroots organization we understand the importance of giving back to our larger community and whenever possible support local businesses and charities through volunteerism and donations.

Lafayette Roller Derby has been a Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) member since 2013.
