History

The league was founded by Eva "Buster Skull" Paxton, [2] who had become a fan of roller derby after hearing about the sport on Miami Ink . She trained with the Diamond State Roller Girls for a year following her eighteenth birthday, but then founded a league in her hometown early in 2010. [3]

Salisbury hosted its first bout in March 2011, an intraleague contest between the Wicomikazis and Old Bay Bombers. [3] The Wicomikazis later became its B team. By 2012, it was playing a full season, which it finished with a 6 to 1 winning record. [4]

Salisbury was accepted as a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program in July 2012, [5] and it became a full Women's Flat Track Derby Association member in September 2013. [6]
