Glass City Rollers (GCR) is a women's roller derby league based in Toledo, Ohio. Founded in 2007, the league currently consists of a single team which competes against teams from other leagues. Glass City is a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).[1]
Glass City was founded in 2007[2] by Jessica "Betty Floored" Crossfield and others.[3] By late 2009, the league had twenty skaters,[4] and it opened its first season in October by playing the Fox Cityz Foxz.[5] The league later inspired the founding of the Sandusky Rollergirls.[6]
Glass City was accepted into the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program in April 2010,[7] and became a full WFTDA member in March 2012.[8]
