  • The Unladylike Ladies of Roller Derby?: How Spectators, Players and Derby Wives Do and Redo Gender and Heteronormativity in All-Female Roller Derby
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by White Rose E-theses Online The Unladylike Ladies of Roller Derby?: How Spectators, Players and Derby Wives Do and Redo Gender and Heteronormativity in All-Female Roller Derby Megan Geneva Murray PhD The University of York Women’s Studies January 2012 Abstract All-female roller derby is a rapidly growing full-contact sport played on quad roller skates, with a highly popularized punk, feminine, sexual and tough aesthetic. Utilising theories on the institution of heterosexuality, I conducted a qualitative study on all-female roller derby which evaluated the way in which derby aligns with or challenges heteronormativity. In order to approach this question, I analysed, firstly, thirty-eight interviews with spectators, and twelve with players about their interactions with spectators. Secondly, I interviewed twenty-six players about the phenomenon of “derby wives,” a term used to describe particular female friendships in roller derby. My findings relate the complex relationship between players and spectators by focusing on: (i) spectators’ interpretations of the dress, pseudonyms, and identities of players, as well as the ways in which they were actively involved in doing gender through their discussions of all-female, coed, and all-male roller derby; (ii) players’ descriptions of their interactions with spectators, family members, romantic partners, friends and strangers, regarding roller derby. Additionally, I address the reformulation of the role “wife” to meet the needs of female players within the community, and “derby wives” as an example of Adrienne Rich’s (1980) “lesbian continuum.” “Derby girls” are described as “super heroes” and “rock stars.” Their pseudonyms are believed to help them “transform” once they take to the track.

  • Sr. B Timbermen Load up for Title Run
    Sr. B Timbermen load up for title run Nanaimo enters second half of WCSLA season tied for first, add Nick Patterson and Russel Thomas BY JOSH ALDRICH, DAILY NEWS JUNE 13, 2013 The Nanaimo Acme Painting Timbermen are not satisfied with simply having a good first half of the season. Their goals are far loftier. Sitting tied for first at the midway point of the West Coast Senior B Lacrosse Association season, the T-Men (6-1-0) have bolstered their goaltending and offence as they head into this weekend's action. In net, they have added veteran National Lacrosse League goalie, and Victoria Sr. A Shamrocks hold out, Nick Patterson. And up front veteran forward Russel Thomas, who led the team in scoring in the playoffs last season, has returned. Despite the Timbermen's hot start, general manager Shawn Swanson is not resting on his laurels. "Definitely happy with the record, but we definitely have some room to improve with our play on the floor," he said. The Timbermen are tied with the Ladner Pioneers (6-0-0) with 12 points, while the Tri-City Bandits (5- 1-0) are right behind them with 10 points. Goaltending has not been an issue to this point for the Timbermen, but Swanson says if they have the opportunity to get even better at a position, they are going to do it. Danny Walters and Pat Mallough have split time in net this year. Mallough carried a 0.819 save percentage and a 8.18 goals against average in 198 minutes played, while Walters carries a 0.794 save percentage and a 7.30 goals against average.
