TRUE OR FALSE: SKATERS MAY LEGALLY RE-ENTER THE TRACK IN FRONT OF THE OPPONENT WHO FORCED THEM OUT OF BOUNDS, IF THE OPPONENT WENT OUT OF BOUNDS AT ANY POINT AFTER THE INITIATING BLOCK.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Skaters may legally re-enter the track in front of the opponent who forced them out of bounds, if the opponent went out of bounds at any point after the initiating block.

TRUE OR FALSE: A CUTTING THE TRACK PENALTY WILL BE ISSUED FOR A SKATER WHO SLIDES OUT OF BOUNDS AND THEN BACK IN BOUNDS WHILE STILL DOWN.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
A cutting the track penalty is not issued for a skater who slides out of bounds and then back in bounds while still down. This is because a skater is only penalized for cutting the track if they re-enter the track ahead of other skaters or gain an advantage by doing so. Sliding out of bounds and then back in while still down does not provide any advantage, so no penalty is issued.Rate this question:

- A.
Earns a False Start and must serve 30 seconds in the Penalty Box.

Correct Answer
B. Must yield to all Skaters in proximity, including opposing Jammer, to avoid a False Start penalty.Explanation
If a blocker lines up with any part of their skate touching the ground behind the jammer line after the jam-starting whistle, they must yield to all skaters in proximity, including the opposing jammer, to avoid a false start penalty. This means that the blocker cannot engage with other skaters immediately and must wait for the appropriate moment to join the game. Touching over the jammer line is considered no impact/no penalty, but failing to yield to skaters in proximity will result in a false start penalty.Rate this question:

- A.
True
- B.

WHEN IS A JAMMER CONSIDERED PART OF THE PACK?
- A.
When the Jammer is within 20 feet (6 meters) of the pack (in play)
- B.
When the Jammer is within 10 feet (3 meters) of the nearest pack Skater (in proximity)
- C.
When the Jammer is in the pack, helping their Blocker with defense
- D.
Never
Correct Answer
D. NeverExplanation
The correct answer is "Never." This means that a Jammer is never considered part of the pack. In roller derby, the pack refers to the group of blockers from both teams skating in proximity to each other. The Jammer, on the other hand, is the designated scorer for the team and is not considered part of the pack. Their role is to navigate through the pack and score points by passing opposing blockers.Rate this question:

TRUE OR FALSE: A SKATER WHO IS LEAD JAMMER CAN CALL OFF THE JAM WHILE BEING REMOVED FROM PLAY DUE TO A PENALTY.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
A skater who is lead jammer cannot call off the jam while being removed from play due to a penalty. The lead jammer is the skater who establishes the lead position in a jam and has the ability to call off the jam at any time by placing their hands on their hips. However, if the lead jammer is removed from play due to a penalty, they lose their ability to call off the jam. Another skater from their team will become the new lead jammer and have the authority to call off the jam if they choose to do so.Rate this question:

Two
- B.
Three
- C.
Four
- D.
Five
Correct Answer
B. ThreeExplanation
The maximum number of skaters from one team that can be seated in the penalty box at one time is three. This is because the penalty box can only accommodate a limited number of players from each team. If more than three skaters from the same team receive penalties simultaneously, the additional players will have to serve their penalties once there is space available in the penalty box.Rate this question:

Nothing
Correct Answer
A. The Jammer receives an Illegal Procedure penaltyExplanation

TRUE OR FALSE: A JAMMER MUST STAY IN BOUNDS TO REMAIN LEAD JAMMER.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
A jammer does not need to stay in bounds to remain lead jammer. In roller derby, the lead jammer is the first jammer to legally pass all blockers on the opposing team. Once the lead jammer has been established, they retain that status until they are sent to the penalty box, or until they pass the star helmet cover to their pivot. Staying in bounds is not a requirement for maintaining the lead jammer status.Rate this question:

- B.
Penalty
- C.
No Impact/No Penalty
Correct Answer
C. No Impact/No PenaltyExplanation

TRUE OR FALSE: WHEN A JAMMER’S HELMET COVER FALLS TO THE GROUND, THE PIVOT CAN PICK IT UP TO BECOME THE ACTIVE JAMMER.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
The statement is false because according to the rules of roller derby, once the helmet cover falls to the ground, the jammer cannot pick it up to become the active jammer. The jammer must retrieve the cover and put it back on their helmet before they can resume scoring points for their team.Rate this question:

- E.
When the Pivot is in possession of the Jammer helmet cover, in their hand or on their helmet, regardless of how it was transferred.
Correct Answer
C. When the Jammer hands the helmet cover to the Pivot and the Pivot is in full possession.Explanation
When the Jammer hands the helmet cover to the Pivot and the Pivot is in full possession, a legal star pass is completed. This means that the Pivot has full control and ownership of the helmet cover. It does not matter how the helmet cover was transferred, whether it was passed or picked up from the floor. As long as the Pivot has the helmet cover in their hand or on their helmet, the star pass is considered legal.Rate this question:

A. No penalty should be issued for either Skater - the illegal action was No Impact/No PenaltyExplanation
According to the given scenario, the jammer jumps the apex and makes contact with the opponent's arm that is extended over the inside line. However, the contact does not cause any impact or penalty-worthy action. The jammer falls, but the opposing skater remains in bounds and upright. Therefore, no penalties should be issued to either skater as the illegal action had no impact and does not warrant a penalty.Rate this question:

TRUE OR FALSE: IF A SKATER IS ILLEGALLY BLOCKED OUTSIDE OF THE ENGAGEMENT ZONE, THEY MAY LEGALLY COUNTER-BLOCK.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
If a skater is illegally blocked outside of the engagement zone, they may legally counter-block. This means that if a skater is illegally blocked by an opponent who is outside of the designated engagement zone, the skater is allowed to use a counter-block as a defensive move. This allows the skater to regain their balance and protect themselves from the illegal block.Rate this question:

A REFEREE MUST GIVE YOU A WARNING BEFORE ISSUING WHICH TYPES OF PENALTIES:
- A.
Multi-Player Block
- B.
Use of Hands
- C.
Failure to Return
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
C. Failure to ReturnExplanation
A referee must give you a warning before issuing a penalty for Failure to Return. This means that if a player fails to return the ball within the specified time or fails to make a good faith effort to return the ball, the referee will first issue a warning before penalizing the player. This warning allows the player to rectify their mistake and avoid immediate penalties.Rate this question:

- A.
Illegal Procedure
- B.
Thumbs Up
- C.
No Impact/No Penalty
- D.
Cutting the Track
Correct Answer
D. Cutting the TrackExplanation
In this scenario, the correct answer is "Cutting the Track." When an upright skater re-enters the track from out of bounds in front of multiple in-bounds skaters during a no pack scenario and improves their position, it is considered cutting the track. Cutting the track is a penalty in roller derby where a skater gains an advantage by re-entering the track illegally or not re-entering at the correct location.Rate this question:

- A.
Any of the Referee staff
- B.
Only the Jammer Referees
- C.
Only the Head Referee
- D.
The Jammer Referees and the Head Referee
Correct Answer
C. Only the Head RefereeExplanation
Only the Head Referee is allowed to expel a skater. The Head Referee is the highest-ranking official in roller derby and has the authority to make important decisions, including expelling a skater from the game. The other referees, such as the Jammer Referees, may have specific roles and responsibilities during the game, but they do not have the power to expel a skater.Rate this question:

IF AN OFFICIAL IS NOT SURE WHETHER AN ACTION WARRANTS A PENALTY OR EXPULSION, IT MUST BE CALLED AS:
- A.
Penalty
- B.
Expulsion
- C.
No Impact/No Penalty
Correct Answer
A. PenaltyExplanation
If an official is unsure whether an action warrants a penalty or expulsion, it must be called as a penalty. This means that even if the official is uncertain about the severity of the action, they should still assess a penalty rather than expelling the player. This ensures that the game continues without major disruptions, and any potential misconduct is addressed appropriately.Rate this question:

TRUE OR FALSE: A PENALIZED SKATER’S TEAMMATES, MANAGERS AND COACHES MAY NOT AT ANY TIME PHYSICALLY ENTER THE DESIGNATED PENALTY BOX AREA TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE PENALIZED SKATER.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Teammates, managers, and coaches of a penalized skater are not allowed to physically enter the designated penalty box area to communicate with the penalized skater. This rule is in place to maintain fairness and prevent any interference or advantage for the penalized skater or their team. It ensures that the penalized skater serves their penalty without any external communication or assistance from their team.Rate this question:

A JAM GETS CALLED OFF FOR HAVING TOO MANY SKATERS ON THE TRACK, AND THE OFFENDING TEAM DID NOT FIELD A PIVOT. AS THE REFEREES ARE UNSURE WHO WAS THE LAST BLOCKER ON THE TRACK, WHO GETS THE PENALTY?
- A.
Captain
- B.
Pivot
- C.
Closest Blocker to Referee who made the call
- D.
No one
Correct Answer
C. Closest Blocker to Referee who made the callExplanation
In roller derby, when a jam gets called off due to having too many skaters on the track and the offending team did not field a pivot, the penalty is given to the closest blocker to the referee who made the call. This is because the referees are unsure who was the last blocker on the track, so they penalize the blocker closest to them. The captain and pivot are not penalized in this situation, and if there is no blocker close to the referee, then no one receives the penalty.Rate this question:

WHAT KIND OF PENALTY WOULD BE ISSUED IN THE FOLLOWING SCENARIO? A SKATER INITIATES CONTACT OR ENGAGES AN OPPONENT BEFORE THE FIRST WHISTLE, FORCING THE RECEIVING OPPOSING SKATER OFF BALANCE, FORWARD OR SIDEWAYS BUT DOES NOT CAUSE THEM TO LOSE THEIR ESTABLISHED STARTING POSITION.
- A.
Illegal Procedure penalty

Out of Play penalty
- C.
No Impact/No Penalty
Correct Answer
C. No Impact/No PenaltyExplanation
In this scenario, the skater initiates contact or engages an opponent before the first whistle, causing the receiving opposing skater to lose balance but not their established starting position.

Correct Answer
A. 20 feet (6 meters) behind the rearmost pack Skater and 20 feet (6 meters) in front of the foremost pack SkaterExplanation
The engagement zone refers to the area in which a skater is considered to be actively participating in the game. It includes 20 feet (6 meters) behind the rearmost pack skater and 20 feet (6 meters) in front of the foremost pack skater. This means that any skater within this zone is considered to be part of the game and can be engaged by other skaters.Rate this question:

TRUE OR FALSE: A BLOCKER’S PROXIMITY TO OTHER BLOCKERS IS MEASURED BY THEIR FINGERTIPS.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
The statement "A blocker's proximity to other blockers is measured by their fingertips" is false. The correct answer is false because a blocker's proximity to other blockers is not measured by their fingertips. The proximity of blockers is typically measured by their position relative to each other on the track or by the distance between them. Fingertips are not a standard measurement for determining proximity in this context.Rate this question:

- B.
Skate outside track boundaries to stay out of the way until they can easily get to the back of the pack
- C.
Wait for the pack to come back around to enter from behind
Correct Answer
A. Catch up to the back of the pack by skating within the track boundaries to be considered back in playExplanation
To legally regain position in the pack after falling behind or recovering from a fall, a skater must catch up to the back of the pack by skating within the track boundaries. This means that they cannot skate outside the track boundaries or wait for the pack to come back around to enter from behind. They must actively skate within the track boundaries to rejoin the pack and be considered back in play.Rate this question:

WHAT KIND OF PENALTY WOULD BE ISSUED IN THE FOLLOWING SCENARIO? A SKATER IS CALLED OUT ON A PENALTY AND REFUSES TO LEAVE THE TRACK.
- A.
Insubordination
- B.
No penalty
- C.
Expulsion
Correct Answer
A. InsubordinationExplanation
In the given scenario, the skater is called out on a penalty and refuses to leave the track. This behavior can be considered as insubordination, which refers to the act of willfully disobeying or resisting authority. In a skating event, insubordination is a serious offense as it disrupts the flow of the game and shows a lack of respect for the rules and officials.

REFEREES WILL WHISTLE A JAM DEAD IF:
- A.
There is an injured Skater on the track who cannot get up
- B.
Green Team’s Jammer is called to the Penalty Box, and Red Team failed to field a Jammer for that jam
- C.
Red Team’s Jammer has scored 50 points in the jam
- D.
A and B only
Correct Answer
D. A and B onlyExplanation
The correct answer is A and B only. Referees will whistle a jam dead if there is an injured skater on the track who cannot get up and if the Green Team's Jammer is called to the Penalty Box and the Red Team failed to field a Jammer for that jam. This means that if a skater is injured and unable to continue or if a team does not have a Jammer on the track while the opposing team's Jammer is penalized, the referees will stop the jam. However, the statement about the Red Team's Jammer scoring 50 points in the jam is not a valid reason for the jam to be whistled dead.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. Accruing 7 trips to the Penalty Box in a gameExplanation

The other options mentioned in the question, such as accruing more than 5 trips to the Penalty Box in either period or more than 8 trips in a game, or using obscene or abusive language directed at an Official, may result in penalties or other consequences, but they will not lead to a player fouling out of the game.Rate this question:
