History
The league played its first home bout in August 2007.[2] Founded as "Bleeding Heartland Rollergirls", the league rebranded in 2014[3] as Bleeding Heartland Roller Derby, to "more accurately reflect the composition of our organization", as noted in an announcement on their official Facebook page.[4]
