Crime City Rollers is a women's flat track roller derby league based in Malmö, Sweden.

Established in 2010, the Crime City Rollers comprises one home team and two traveling teams representing the league in competition with other leagues. The Crime City Rollers were accepted as an apprentice league of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) in July 2011, and became full members of the association in June 2012.

Eleven skaters from Crime City Rollers were selected for Team Sweden at the 2011 Roller Derby World Cup, and one was selected for Team Finland.

WFTDA competition

In 2015, Crime City first qualified for WFTDA Division 1 Playoffs, entering the Dallas tournament as the eighth seed and ultimately finishing in sixth place. In 2016, Crime City returned to Division 1 Playoffs, entering the Columbia tournament as the seventh seed and finishing in sixth place again. In 2017, Crime City hosted a Division 1 Playoff, the first WFTDA Playoff to be held outside of North America. The fourth seed in Malmö, Crime City won their quarterfinal against Helsinki Roller Derby 215-170, qualifying them for WFTDA Championships for the first time. After dropping their semifinal to Gotham Girls Roller Derby 237-65, Crime City also lost the third-place game to London Rollergirls 181-138 and finished in fourth place. Crime City finished outside the medals at Championships in Philadelphia, losing a tight game to Montreal Roller Derby 133-129 and to Arch Rival Roller Derby 220-160.

In 2018, Crime City took second place at the WFTDA Playoff in A Coruña, Spain, losing the title game 342-149 to Arch Rival. At Championships in New Orleans, Crime City again faced Montreal in the opening game of the weekend, and again lost to them by 4 points, this time 184-180. Crime City then rebounded in the consolation round, where they won at the Championships for the first time, 173-160 over Jacksonville Roller Derby. In 2019, Crime City qualified for the WFTDA Playoffs in Seattle as the eighth seed, but lost their opening game to Philly Roller Derby 156–104 and did not advance to the Championships. Crime City did not participate in WFTDA-sanctioned events during 2020 and 2021 due to the suspension of competitive play in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, Crime City won the WFTDA European Continental Cup, defeating Nantes, Stockholm, and Toulouse, and also claimed the Swedish national championship.

In 2023, Crime City defended their Swedish championship title and finished fourth at the EuroCup tournament in Manchester, posting a narrow loss to Montreal during the season. In 2024, Crime City again won the Swedish championship and captured the European regional title with victories over Stockholm and Toulouse, qualifying them for the WFTDA Global Championships in Portland, where they won their seeding game but lost in the quarterfinals to Denver. In 2025, Crime City claimed a third consecutive Swedish championship and won a Malmö triple-header event with victories over Helsinki and London Brawling.
