The Harm City Roller Derby (HCRD) is a men's roller derby league, based in Baltimore. The league consists of four teams—an interleague team and three intra-league teams.
Harm City Homicide was one of the first men's derby teams in the county, founded by Charm City Roller Girls referee Justice Feelgood Marshall in 2007.[1] Harm City Homicide played the first men's full-length bout with WFTDA rules against the New York Shock Exchange in 2008.[2]
Harm City Homicide is a founding member of the Men's Roller Derby Association (formerly the Men’s Derby Coalition). In 2010, the team participated in the first-ever official men’s roller derby season and hosted that year’s championship, taking 3rd place overall.[3]
In 2012, the league was restructured, joining with a newly created team serving Cecil County, Maryland, the Rollin' Regulators, which had been founded in 2011 by a Harm City Homicide skater.[4] Harm City Homicide and the Rollin' Regulators now serve as two intraleague, regional teams, with members from each team chosen for the travel team. Later that year, a new team serving Frederick, Maryland, Khaos, also joined.
