The team was formed in 2007 due to playing numbers at the club warranting the extra capacity for players. The South London Demons were one of the founding members of the division, with third sides from the big clubs in London, the seconds of Wimbledon, and teams from further afield such as Bristol, Reading, and Nottingham. It has since been joined by South East London Giants, while Bristol and Nottingham have pulled out.
The South London Demons won the inaugural flag and has gone on to win another four. The team played wearing a St Kilda strip for several matches before changing to the Wandsworth Demons kit later in the season.
