Junior roller derby is the sport of roller derby, modified for children and adolescents. Junior roller derby teams or leagues are sometimes called Derby Brats.
*The Tucson Derby Brats formed as a not for profit roller derby league in 2006 by a group of young fans of the Tucson Roller Derby adult league.
*In Seattle, Roller Derby parents began an after school program for roller derby at Pathfinder School in 2005. Rat City Rollergirls member Betty Ford Galaxy was introduced to the team, and founded Seattle Derby Brats in 2006 as a city-wide organization for Junior Derby. [2]
On October 1 2009 The Junior Roller Derby Association (JRDA) was formally established to promote the sport of junior roller derby.
