ABOUT Open Roller Derby Association Inc
We’re raising funds to bring our vision of inclusive, open-gender roller derby to life. The money raised will support the organisation of tournaments and events that welcome athletes of all identities, abilities, and backgrounds, ensuring they have equal access to participate. These funds will help cover essential costs such as venue rentals, safety equipment, medical services, team gear, and travel expenses, making roller derby accessible for everyone who wants to be part of the sport.
Why do we care about this? At ORDA, we believe roller derby should be a space where all athletes, regardless of gender, identity, or ability, can compete and thrive. We’re passionate about breaking down the barriers that often keep people out of sports and creating opportunities where diversity is celebrated. Our mission is to create welcoming environments that allow athletes to showcase their talents, build confidence, and connect with others who share their love for the sport.
Our plan is simple but powerful: We will use these funds to host open-gender tournaments, skill-building clinics, events and programs that foster inclusivity. These events will not only break down barriers but will also help build a supportive and engaged community around roller derby. We aim to raise awareness, grow participation, and inspire positive change within the sport and beyond.
We are the Open Roller Derby Association (ORDA), founded in 2024 by a group of passionate advocates for diversity and equity in sports. We are committed to creating a roller derby community where everyone has the opportunity to compete, grow, and excel. With your support, we can make this transformative vision a reality and help ensure that roller derby is a sport for all. Join us in breaking down barriers and driving positive change on and off the track!
