Rocktown Rollers (RTR) is a roller derby league based in Harrisonburg, Virginia. Founded in 2008, the league consists of a single team which competes against teams from other leagues.
The league was founded in early 2008 by Janna-cide and Troch, two locals. It hosted its first home bout early in 2009, attracting around 500 fans. However, reports in 2010 claimed that, despite its popularity, the league had struggled to find practice space, and team members were viewed negatively by some members of the public.
Rocktown was accepted into the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program in July 2010, and became a full member of the WFTDA in June 2011.
