Stockholm Roller Derby (STRD) is a roller derby league based in Stockholm, Sweden. Founded in 2007, the league currently consists of two teams which compete against teams from other leagues. The first roller derby league in Sweden, Stockholm Roller Derby was founded by Nattis Mörkenstam, Linn Hultström, Jenny Stendahl, Emmelie Bogårdh and Michel Diaz Nocetti and initially practised in a garage. They struggled to find a permanent practice venue, and initially recruited only slowly. However, the league received a major boost when the film ''Whip It!'' was released, and found training space in an abandoned shopping mall.〔Anna Bodin, "(I rollerderby är blåmärken snyggt )", ''Dagens Nyheters'' 28 October 2011 〕 By mid-2010, the league had forty skaters, while three other leagues had emerged in the country, including the Crime City Rollers.〔"(Roller derby )", ''ETC'', 19 July 2010 〕 Stockholm played their first bout in October 2010, against Helsinki Roller Derby, and took part in the first all-Swedish bout in March 2011, against Crime City.〔"(Bouts )", Stockholm Roller Derby〕 The league also participated in the first Scandinavian tournament, "Battle of the Nordic Light",〔"(Battle of the Nordic Light )", Crime City Rollers, 26 July 2011〕 losing to Helsinki but beating Copenhagen.〔"(Tre vinster mot nordiskt motstånd )", Crime City Rollers, 8 September 2011 〕 In October 2011, Stockholm became an apprentice member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association,〔"(WFTDA accepts 14 leagues into apprentice program )", WFTDA, 27 October 2011〕 and it graduated to full membership in December 2012.〔"(WFTDA Welcomes 14 New Members )", 3 December 2012〕 Seven of Stockholm's skaters were selected to play for Team Sweden at the 2011 Roller Derby World Cup.〔"(WFTDA and the Roller Derby World Cup )", WFTDA, 1 November 2011〕 At the first European WFTDA tournament in November 2012, "Track Queens Battle Royal",〔"(Track Queens Battle Royal Scores )", Track Queens Battle Royal, 18th November 2012,〕 Stockholm came at third place out of ten bouting teams, defending their ingoing ranking〔"(Track Queens Battle Royal Teams )", Track Queens Battle Royal〕 for the tournament. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stockholm Roller Derby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
