Roller Derby Rules

The game is played by 2 opposing teams skating around a banked oval track. Each team fields 5 skaters in 3 designated positions. Together they form the PACK.

1 PIVOT (Black helmet) - front skater.
2 BLOCKERS (Solid colour helmet) - middle of pack.
2 JAMMERS (Striped helmet) - back of pack.

A JAM starts when a jammer breaks from the pack.
Jammers score a point for each member of the other team they lap within a time limit (60 secs). Blockers cannot score but prevent the opposing team from scoring. The pivot assists the jammers and can also score provided they are not first to break.

Women and men usually alternate for 8 periods.
A period lasts 10-12 mins or a set number of jams.
Points are accumulated for a final team score.
