Our Mission
Auld Reekie Roller Girls is a not-for-profit, grassroots, women’s flat track roller derby league based in Edinburgh. Founded in 2008, ARRG was the first Scottish Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) member. We are a dynamic community that is supportive and inclusive in a competitive environment, in which skaters, officials and non-skating members can be the best they can be.
Our Vision

Through our training, coaching and by encouraging hundreds of women to participate and excel in our sport, our members better themselves physically and mentally.
