June 11, 2007 — The 2007 WFTDA Annual Meeting was a
gathering of many talented and dedicated representatives from
member leagues across the US. Twenty-nine of thirty-nine
member leagues were represented, and this year's meeting
saw an historic first - a referee meeting in which approximately
20 WFTDA leagues were represented by their officials! Over
three long days of general sessions, committee meetings, elections
and votes, much was determined about the future of our organization
and the sport of flat track derby that will allow for continued
and sustainable long - term growth into the future.
We are proud to announce one of the results of this long
weekend's work: the election of our new WFTDA President, Crackerjack
of the Mad Rollin' Dolls of Madison Wisconsin. Hydra of Texas
Roller Girls will continue to serve WFTDA as Past President,
and we look forward to both Presidents' nurturing and
guidance of our sport and the WFTDA this year!
The hard - working women and men that gave so much
this weekend will continue to develop and guide our sport
with a unified vision. The collective years of derby experience
in the rooms was impressive, and the willingness to share
such a deep knowledge base was inspiring. WFTDA will continue
its long - standing tradition of cooperative works for
the common good of not just our organization, but all flat-track
derby leagues, built on a foundation of meetings like NoCon
2007. Look for exciting news and information to come from
WFTDA working committees soon!
