Bisman Bombshellz Accepted as Women’s Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice

 

Bismarck, ND— The Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) is proud to announce that Bisman Bombshellz has been accepted as an “Apprentice” affiliate of the WFTDA, the governing body for women’s amateur flat track roller derby.

As an Apprentice affiliate of the WFTDA, Bisman Bombshellz joins the ranks of more than 400 all-female, skater-owned- and-operated leagues worldwide that have united to lead the growing sport of women’s flat track roller derby.

WFTDA apprentice leagues are matched with veteran member leagues who guide them in the processes and requirements necessary to become a full member of the Association. WFTDA Apprentice leagues are considered “pre-members” of the WFTDA and have access to many of the resources and benefits of full WFTDA membership.
