  • 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.

  • Indoor Football League Arizona Rattlers
    WELCOME 2019 River Kings Media Guide A new era of Indoor football In June of 2018, the Cedar Rapids Titans were purchased by a new ownership group led by LA-based businessman Roy Choi and his New York-based colleague Matt Stone. The upcoming year will be the team’s eighth season of operations as a part of the Indoor Football League. As a part of the transition of ownership, the organization brought on new management with the intention to refocus the team’s commitment to Cedar Rapids. We identified three primary goals as part of the relaunch: put a competitive team on the field, provide a high-quality sports entertainment experience at the U.S. Cellular Center for the fan base, and focus their energy on the community that supports the team. In addition to their updated mission, the team decided to take on a re-brand of the organization to draw a clear and concise line that this is an entirely new group of owners and staff with the intention to be great stewards of the community, the best partners they can be for their sponsors, and to compete on the field and in the community in an effort to become the best local sports organization in Eastern Iowa. From the moment you walk into the US Cellular Center you can expect an exciting experience on game nights. Whether you are a first time guest, a season ticket holder, or part of a group, we invite you to expereince the hard-hitting, high scoring action of indoor football with us this season as we begin a new chapter in our franchise’s history.

    THE INDOOR FOOTBALL LEAGUE ANNOUNCES NEW TEAM IN PRESCOTT VALLEY, AZ PRESCOTT VALLEY, AZ – AUGUST 25, 2020 — The Indoor Football League announced today that Prescott Valley Arizona has been awarded a new team franchise and will be joining the Indoor Football League. This team will be the third IFL franchise in Arizona and will make The Findlay Toyota Center it’s new home. "We are extremely excited to be adding another team in the State of Arizona. When the Northern Arizona Suns of the G League decided to leave the area, I thought this would be a great market to join the Tucson Sugar Skulls and Arizona Rattlers who are already in the IFL” said Trey Medlock, President of S & P Sports LLC. The team would like to get the community involved from the very start by helping them choose a name. "We want to reflect the culture and values of the community so we are asking everyone in the community to submit their ideas for our new name. Our organization is nothing without its fans so we plan to be involved in the Prescott Valley and quad city community and give back as much as possible” said Trey Medlock. “There are three main objectives we look for when it comes to expansion. Quality of ownership, relationship with the arena, and geographic location. Prescott Valley checks all three of those boxes!” said Todd Tyron, commissioner of the IFL. The Prescott Valley Franchise will become the 16th team in the IFL that also includes the recent addition of the Columbus Wild Dogs.
