History
The league was founded, as the Vette City Vixens, by Jenni Johnson, after she saw the Nashville Roller Girls play.[2] It has attracted publicity for hosting children's skating events.[3]
The league was accepted as a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program in July 2012,[4] and became a full member of the WFTDA in June 2013.[5]
In early 2015, the league was forced to cancel some scheduled home events when their former venue, the Skate Box, was sold.[6] During this time the league lost some members due to inactivity.[7] As of 2017[update], Vette City's venue is the Bowling Green Skate Center.[8]
