Flint Roller Derby is a roller derby league based in Flint, Michigan. Founded in 2007, the league consists of one team which competes against teams from other leagues. Flint is a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).[1]
The league was founded in March 2007. In 2009, it created a roller derby program at the
Perani Arena, while continuing to use the Rollhaven venue for scrimmage and practices.[3]
In January 2011, Flint was accepted as a member of the
Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program,[4] but was no longer listed as a member as of February 2013.[5] By December 2017, the league had rebranded as Flint Roller Derby, and had re-entered the WFTDA Apprentice Program.[6] Flint became a full member league of the WFTDA in September 2018.[7]
