The Boston Privateers are a professional Roofball team that plays in the Quentinian Roofball Organization, in the city of Boston. They were founded in 1940, and are a part of the Eastern Roofball Conference, in the ERC Northwest division, along with the West Snowy Grinders and the Maximum City Pitch Black. The Privateers have won 3 QRO Champions Cups, the first ever one in 1940, and 2 back to back ones in 1952 and 1953. Their current head coach is Brock Stevens, and the team is owned by Pierce LeBonk.
History
The Privateers were founded in 1939, and played games before the league was even founded, against the Minersville Miners and the Rodriguezville Ravagers. They played in Jameisville as the Jameisville Stingers, however relocated when the league began in 1939 and changed their name. They relocated to the city of Boston, and were highly popular and nationally recognized, even in the early years of the sport. They could play extremely well too, and won the QRO Champions Cup, in its first year ever being played. However, as they were poised to make another run at the title in 1941, the league had financial issues, and it was canceled for numerous years. Unfortunately for the Privateers, it gave other teams time to catch up, and in 1950 they missed out on the Cup. With a new coach, named Gary Haddaman, they didn't fall behind for long, and in 1952 they won the Cup for a second time, led by all time great Penetraman Ruth Flyere. In 1953, they won once more, with Flyere winning the QRO League MVP for the second year in a row.
Throughout the rest of the 50's, Boston was a big contender, making the Champion's Cup once, but not winning it. In 1961, Flyere retired, and the team fell out of contender position. From there they steadily became worse until in the late '70s they got in The Tournament for a few years, however could never win. Then, in the '80s and '90s, the team became one of the worst in the league, going years without a winning season, and that drought continued on into the early part of the 21st century. In 2016, however, the team drafted Starterman Samantha McQueckle, who, in her first two seasons, completed a large percentage of throws as well as got the team to the Tournament in 2018.
