Carson Victory Rollers

Roller Derby

Roller derby is a contact sport played on roller skates. Two packs of five members roller skate in a series of mini-match ups (jams) in which both teams designate a scoring player (the jammer), who scores points by lapping members of the opposing team.  Although there are a number rule sets leagues may play by, the Carson Victory Rollers is a flat track league and play by WFTDA (Women’s Flat Track Derby Association) rules.

Adult League Program Description

The Carson Victory Rollers is a player-owned & operated non-profit team that works to facilitate an environment where all genders, 18 & over, and of all athletic abilities can participate in both a fun and empowering environment.  All participants will be required to complete a 4 week off-skate prior where they will build endurance and strength while learning terminology, rules, and safety.

Official/Non-Skating Official Program Description

This program is looking for adult men & women and junior boys & girls for our Adult and Junior Roller Derby teams to participate as officials & non-skating officials (NSO). Officials officiate each bout/scrimmage on skates (roller skates or inline skates are both acceptable). Each official will be trained how to skate, fall, and build minimum skills while learning how to perform safely on roller/inline skates. Non-skating officials are those who perform non-skating duties such as penalty tracking, score tracking, and penalty timing.  Both officials and NSO’s will participate in a rules training course where they will learn the rules of the game. Officials will be taught how to recognize and call penalties and NSO’s will be trained how to properly time and track both points and penalties.
