History
The league was founded in July 2010 and played its first season in 2012-2013, winning a majority of its eight bouts. It worked closely with a junior roller derby league, the Valley Vixens,[1] though that junior team dissolved and the Denali Dragons were formed in January of 2024.[2]
Denali was accepted as a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program in October 2012[3] and became a full WFTDA member in September 2013.[4] However, the league never earned a ranked position within the WFTDA rankings and is no longer a member of WFTDA.[5]
The Denali Destroyers have been involved in a variety of local events, including a bra-related art exhibition.[6]
In June 2023, Denali Destroyer Dolls changed its Facebook profile picture to a new logo, notably dropping the 'Dolls' portion of the team's name.[7] The team has since been known as the Denali Destroyers.
