Bronx Gridlock is one of the four Gotham home teams. This patch commemorates winning the 2019 home team championships.
Kalamazoo's MVP Award
ExpiredI'll note this here for lack of a better place on the site to record it. Kalamazoo Roller Derby was formerly known as the Kalamazoo Derby Darlins.
It's difficult to read the writing on this small picture, but I believe it says "MRD Season 12 Championships 2015-16".
Naughty vs. Nice (2002)
ExpiredThis patch was made to commemorate a Chrstimas-themed game hosted by Gas City Roller Derby. At leats four were given out as MVP awards. I am unsure if these are all that were created, or if others were made available.
Nova Roller Derby - MVP awards
ExpiredThese patches were given out at the end of the year by Nova Roller Derby. The "Hat" patch is a bit of a joke. It's the MVP award for dual pivot-jammers on the team. They couldn't fit "pivot/jammer", so they thought about "pantie" for the patch but thought that sounded crude. "Helmet cover" wouldn't fit either, so as a bit of placeholder text they wrote "hat". From what I hear, they never thought of a suitable word so they kept "hat" for lack of a better idea. It's become an in joke in the league since then.
