The Seaside Siren Roller Girls (SSRG) was a roller derby league based in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, in England. Founded in 2009, the league consists of two teams, which compete against teams from other leagues. Seaside is a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).[1]
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]
