Founded in 2007, the league was a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) and played under the WFTDA ruleset. A group of girls who already had some skating experience first set up an informal practice in November 2007. This group expanded quickly and the league has since grown to boast over 70 full members including referees and support crew. CCR first became affiliated with the UK Roller Derby Association (UKRDA) in 2008. CCR became an official member of UKRDA in 2010 alongside other founder leagues In March 2012, the league was accepted as a full member of the WFTDA. In 2021, it was announced that Central City Roller Derby would merge with Birmingham Blitz Dames to form Birmingham Roller Derby.
