Scrimmage night: Jan 28 2011 in London
Schedule (as usual) 6:45 arrive and sign in. Gear up.
7:00 PM: Floor sweep, warmup, stretch
7:15 PM: Track setup and Roster Announcement
7:20 PM: First jam
3 periods of 20 minutes are planned. Time will be announced with rosters as it may depend on number of players and start time. It is all WFTDA roller derby, but if you check a girl to the floor in low contact derby, we will send you to the penalty box!
2011 will bring new team names, but for now, we’re still playing open-roster Red Shirts vs Black Hats and the Black Hats need to win this one, at 0-2 for LOCO in London.
Requirements to scrimmage: Skaters must pass skill testing (Jan 21 2011), attend a ref clinic (Jan 21 2011), have gear check approved (Jan 28 2011), and have insurance valid for 2011 (CWRDA or RSC accepted) by Jan 28 2011. We will also ask if you have read the rules so ask for them if you haven’t! For this scrimmage, we will have 14 day waivers for those that have applied for insurance but are missing cards. Helmet, mouth guard, knee and elbow pads, and wrist guards are required. Women over 18 can play, men 18+ can serve as referees. Referees and NSO officials can be on or off skate at LOCO, and we will train you. Referees and Volunteers will not have to pay on scrimmage nights.
Spectators: Our practice space is not setup for crowds, sorry, and do to renovations that are underway we do ask that you wait to attend one of our family and friends bouts, or tell your rollergirl that you want to come watch and we’ll see if we can accomodate you. Better yet, volunteer to do penalties, clocks, or score keeping!
