Team Iceland Roller Derby

What a whirlwind World Cup it was! Not everyone would be proud to rank 39 of 48, but for a team from a tiny country in the middle of the Atlantic, we're incredibly proud. Thank you to everyone who put their blood, sweat (omg, so much sweat), and tears into making the event all that it was. To the friends new and old, the lessons learned, and each single hard-fought point we earned. Thank you from every single one of us silly geese.

In only three games, our jammers 47 Vicious () and 112 Harpattack () were among the top scorers of all RDWC. Of course they couldn't have done it without the rest of the team behind them, but that's not what this graph is about. We're so so proud of you. 💪

STATS OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN. Huge thanks to Code Adam and everyone else who made this public tableau for RDWC game data. 🤩 Here's some of our highlights.

Are you at RDWC and want to win a goody bag full of Icelandic candy, Team Iceland merch and even some real Icelandic lava rocks?

Be the first person to find our skater Magic Mango at the after party (she will be carrying this bag) and tell her "Áfram Ísland!" - the bag will be yours!

It's been an honor and a pleasure. Áfram Ísland!

Inspired by Wales Roller Derby, it's time to announce our most loyal supporters: our pets! And yes, this is 36 pets for a 24-person charter. Who would you most want on your team?

Roller derby is a grassroots sport, and we couldn't make big events like the World Cup happen without a little help from our friends. Thank you to VR Verktakar and Olís for their sponsorship. Without them, we could never have come as far (or ordered merch, so if you like our stuff, you can thank them too). And of course, a huge thank you to the local Icelandic derby league Derby Iceland for taking on so much of the administration and hosting of Team Iceland's day-to-day needs. We are truly stronger together.

One important part of being on a team is having matching uniforms. Thanks to and , Team Iceland has just that! We are incredibly grateful to Hagkaup for sponsoring our home team, Ragnarok, with food for our local games. And when we announced our intent to attend World Cup, they stepped up and helped sponsor our Skate Good jerseys! Without their support and Skate Good Club's fantastic manufacturing, we'd have to skate in those overly warm lopapeysur. Takk fyrir!
