Our Story

Enchanted Mountain Roller Derby (EMRD) was founded in 2010 by a group of local women (who are also skaters) to provide our community with an environment that enhances personal growth and development through sport.

Our mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of our community. We believe in both the value of the individual, and the strength of the team, as a positve force in the world. EMRD is entirely self-supported, drawing from the talents of our members—from skater training and administration to event production, marketing, fundraising, media relations, and every aspect needed for the growth of our league and our sport.

Roller derby has evolved into a true sport with rules and regulations; it involves athleticism and dedication!

There is no doubt that the Hellbillies and River Rats will bring excitement to the Southern Tier once again for their 2026 season. As publicity and enthusiasm about our sport continue to increase internationally and locally, we anticipate an even more tremendous growth in fan base.
