Roller Derby

Info on Roller Derby

Game is called a Bout
There is an oval shaped track (skating rink) where the center and outside is off-limits.

Each period has n number of Jams

Each Jam can last up to 2 minutes.

Each team has X players. One player on each team is called the Jammer.

Initially the non-jammer players are bunched up and start skating.

Then the jammers start (behind the other players)

Each jammer has to skate through the crowd to become the Lead Jammer

The lead jammer has to go all the way around the track and come up behind the players on the other team. Now each time a player on the other team is passed by the lead jammer, the Lead Jammer's team scores a point.
