The Circle City Derby Girls (CCDG) is a women's roller derby league based in Indianapolis, Indiana. Founded in 2008, the league currently consists of two teams which compete against teams from other leagues.

The league initially bouted at the Ellenberger Park Ice Rink,[1] but this closed, and they moved to The Forum at Fishers.[2] It has close links with Men's Roller Derby Association league, the Race City Rebels.[3]

Circle City was accepted into the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program in April 2011,[4] and became a full member of the WFTDA in June 2012.[5]
