History

The league was founded in November 2009 by six skaters who had formerly skated with another league, but wanted to play closer to their home town. [2] The league began practising on Canvey Island, and had fourteen skaters by early 2010. [3] It played its first bout in April 2011, when it faced the Norfolk Brawds. [4]

In June 2012, the Seaside Sirens were accepted as a member of the United Kingdom Roller Derby Association, [5] while in October 2013, they were accepted as a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Programme. [6] Seaside became a full member of the WFTDA in January 2016. [7] The team were officially disbanded in 2018 following a shortage of players.[ citation needed ]
