Rage City Rollergirls (RCR) is a roller derby league based in Anchorage, Alaska. RCR currently consists of two teams, the Rage City All*Stars and Orange Crush. The Rage City All-Stars represent the best of Rage City and travel all over the world to compete in bouts. Orange Crush is RCR's "b-team", playing mostly home games and bouts throughout the state.

The league was founded in 2007 by a group of women, some of whom had previously watched roller derby elsewhere in the U.S. It played its first bout in May 2008, attracting a crowd of more than 1,000 fans. This was the first flat track roller derby bout in Alaska.

Rage City joined the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice program in April 2010, and became full members of the WFTDA in March 2011.
