SoCal Derby is a flat track roller derby league in San Diego, California. The league has one team, the Kraken.
The league was founded in 2011 by Ivanna S. Pankin and Trish The Dish.
"#1 Armed Bandit", a skater with SoCal, was selected to play for Team Scotland at the 2011 Roller Derby World Cup.
SoCal Derby was accepted into the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program in January 2012, and graduated to Women's Flat Track Derby full membership in December 2013. Their charter team, the Kraken, rose from unranked in their first full membership season to rank #38 and achieve an invitation to the WFTDA Division One Playoffs in 2014.
In 2014, SoCal Derby partnered with South Coast Derby. The two small leagues provisionally merged business operations, leadership boards and practice calendars, but ultimately disconnected in 2015.
After a year long game hiatus, SoCal Derby announced a partnership in December 2015 with local RDCL (Roller Derby Coalition of Leagues) banked track league, San Diego Derby Dolls to share a facility and create the first coalition between a banked and flat track league under one roof in modern roller derby.
