Santa Cruz Derby Groms is a top ranked junior roller derby league local to Santa Cruz, California. Our league is dedicated to youth empowerment through the sport of junior roller derby. We provide opportunities for all junior skaters, from beginner through advanced, between the ages of 7 and 17. The Groms have six full-contact teams for advanced and intermediate junior skaters: Gromshells, Freaky Fridays, The Lost Girls, Double Shots, Bumper Scars, and Sugar Skulls. For new skaters we have a year-round training program called the Grommets. The Gromshells, our JRDA female division charter team, are 6 time Junior Roller Derby Championship medalists and the 2024 National Champions!
We're expanding our offerings in 2024 through the formation of a new competitive team for our age out skaters 18+. Our Groms Legacy WFTDA (Women's Flat Track Derby Association) team will provide opportunities for Groms skaters who are aging out of junior derby and want to continue playing competitive roller derby at the highest level while maintaining the strong bonds with our coaches and our league. We're excited to see what Groms Legacy can accomplish!
...for those that don’t know, the term “Grom” originated in surf culture to describe a young surfer who shreds up the waves. Santa Cruz being a traditional surf town, naming our league full of shredders on 8 wheels was an easy choice!
