USA Roller Derby represents the United States in international roller derby, in events such as the Roller Derby World Cup. The team's first international competition was the 2011 Roller Derby World Cup, where it finished in first place after defeating Team Canada in the final.[1] During the time period referenced here, it was known as "Team USA". A trademark challenge from the United States Olympic Committee led to the change to the name "USA Roller Derby" after the team's last international appearance.
On October 15, 2013, the roster for the 2014 World Cup team was announced by Derby News Network as follows (skater's home league at time of announcement listed):[3]

2011 Roller Derby World Cupedit
The team then known as "Team USA"'s first international action took place December 1 through 4, 2011, at the premiere Roller Derby World Cup, held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The U.S., one of 13 nations competing, began group play at the tournament in Group C, along with teams representing New Zealand and Scotland.[6] The U.S. won both of its group bouts, defeating New Zealand 377 to 8 on the first day of the tournament,[7] and Scotland on the second day, 435 to 1.[8] On the night of the tournament's first day, the USA staged an exhibition bout, dividing its large roster into two teams nicknamed the Stars and the Stripes.[9]
By virtue of the large point spread for the U.S. in their group bouts, the team was seeded first overall for the remainder of the tournament,[8] and earned a bye past the first elimination round. In the quarter-finals, the U.S. faced New Zealand for the second time, winning this time by a score of 437 to 8.[10] In the semi-final, the U.S. defeated Team Australia 532 to 4, in what was both the highest score and largest margin of victory for the entire tournament.[11] In the final of the tournament, the U.S. defeated Team Canada 336 to 33.[1] Joy Collision was voted MVP for the U.S. at the World Cup.[12]
