This work is for us, about us, by us. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My deepest thanks first go to my advisor, Heather Dillaway, and the members of my dissertation committee: Krista Brumley, Sara Flory, and Heidi Gottfried. Thank you for bearing with me as I struggled to keep myself on track to complete this mountain of work and for reminding me that a dissertation does not have to be perfect, it just has to be done! Thank you for believing in my work and for pushing me to think of how my findings mattered to the world outside of derby, because sometimes I forget that there is such a world. Special thanks to Sara for always checking on my progress when we ended up at the same derby tournaments, and for validating my work as a skater yourself. I would also like to thank my fellow sociology graduate students who went through the program with me, especially those in our informal qualitative research meeting group. Even though we came to the program at different times, we supported one another and were able to laugh, cry, and vent about the world around us. That is what a cohort should be. Like most things in derby, this work is a community effort. Thank you so much to all the leaders and entrepreneurs who saw something special in my work and were willing to tell me your stories. For allowing me a little bit of space in your already overflowing schedules, I am indebted. I see you all doing amazing things on and off the track, and I can only hope that I did your words and experiences justice. I would also like to thank my teammates for their support, or just being there at practice so I could skate things out with you after a long day of writing. To my parents: Never having attended college, I knew you didn’t know much about the workings of higher education, but you did understand how much it meant to me to finish this degree, even if it meant I was always busy. For that, I will always be grateful. To my brother: Your sense of humor and gentle pushing to continue video game nights was one of the things that kept me sane during this entire process. iii Finally, heartfelt thanks go to my partner, Riley Elam. While I would have been stubborn enough to get through the last three years without you in my life, it would have been much more difficult. Thank you for supporting me and understanding how much completing this stage of my life means to me. I will always be grateful for the evenings of you shoving food in my face while I had my head buried in my laptop, all of the derby trips where you drove as I typed, and when you started taking on more chores at home to accommodate me. I adore you for sticking by me from the start through the finish line. This phase of my life is ending, but the next phase of ours is just beginning. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS DEDICATION ................................................................................................................................ ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ............................................................................................................. iii LIST OF TABLES ......................................................................................................................... ix CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION: LOOMING QUESTIONS, FRUSTRATING ANSWERS ..... 1 CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE REVIEW ........................................................................................ 9 Conceptualizing work ................................................................................................................. 9 Conceptualizing leisure ............................................................................................................. 14 Blurring the boundaries of leisure and work ............................................................................. 16 “Doing what you love:” turning leisure into paid work in alternative sport ............................. 19 Roller derby literature, or we’ve come a long way from fishnets ............................................. 23 Conclusion ................................................................................................................................. 27 CHAPTER 3: STUDY CONTEXT .............................................................................................. 29 Historical roots (1935-1999) ..................................................................................................... 29 Roller derby’s revival in Austin (2001-2003) ........................................................................... 31 The birth of the WFTDA and the derby industry (2004-present) ............................................. 35 Derby league organizational structure and values..................................................................... 40 Conclusion ................................................................................................................................. 44 CHAPTER 4: METHODOLOGY ................................................................................................ 45 Sample parameters .................................................................................................................... 49 v Recruitment ............................................................................................................................... 52 Data collection and analysis ...................................................................................................... 55 Sample description .................................................................................................................... 57 CHAPTER 5: “I CAN’T IMAGINE BEING IN A DIFFERENT INDUSTRY”: DERBY WORK AS PASSION WORK................................................................................................................... 66 Motivations in starting businesses............................................................................................. 66 Entrepreneurship/leadership as making a difference: How passion motivates practice ........... 81 Conclusion ................................................................................................................................. 99 CHAPTER 6: DO WHAT YOU LOVE…FOR A LIVING?

  • Roller Derby: Past, Present, Future RESEARCH PAPER for ASU’S Global Sport Institute
    Devoney Looser, Foundation Professor of English Department of English, Arizona State University Tempe, AZ 85287-1401 [email protected] Roller Derby: Past, Present, Future RESEARCH PAPER for ASU’s Global Sport Institute SUMMARY Is roller derby a sport? Okay, sure, but, “Is it a legitimate sport?” No matter how you’re disposed to answer these questions, chances are that you’re asking without a firm grasp of roller derby’s past or present. Knowledge of both is crucial to understanding, or predicting, what derby’s future might look like in Sport 2036. From its official origins in Chicago in 1935, to its rebirth in Austin, TX in 2001, roller derby has been an outlier sport in ways admirable and not. It has long been ahead of the curve on diversity and inclusivity, a little-known fact. Even players and fans who are diehard devotees—who live and breathe by derby—have little knowledge of how the sport began, how it was different, or why knowing all of that might matter. In this paper, which is part of a book-in-progress, I offer a sense of the following: 1) why roller derby’s past and present, especially its unusual origins, its envelope-pushing play and players, and its waxing and waning popularity, matters to its future; 2) how roller derby’s cultural reputation (which grew out of roller skating’s reputation) has had an impact on its status as an American sport; 3) how roller derby’s economic history, from family business to skater-owned-and- operated non-profits, has shaped opportunity and growth; and 4) why the sport’s past, present, and future inclusivity, diversity, and counter-cultural aspects resonate so deeply with those who play and watch.
