Teams
We have two teams at the moment. The Bombers (level skaters) and the Falcons (under 8). Below are the description of the JRDA levels.
– Level 1 skaters are becoming masters of their skates, learning basic game play and teamwork, and beginning to scrimmage and bout positionally. Skill Level 1 allows positional blocking only. Intentional contact with an opponent is not allowed
Level 1
Level 2 skaters are playing using pushing contact only in scrimmages and games. They are also learning advanced teamwork, rules and regulations, and strategic play. Skill Level 2 allows Lean Blocking only - Forceful Initial Contact is not allowed. After initial contact is made gently, blockers can apply force to legal target zones with legal blocking zones
Level2
– Skaters who pass the Skill Level 3 Assessment demonstrate adult-level competency on skates and with the rules. Level 3 skaters practice, scrimmage and play using full-contact rules. Level 3 skaters play JRDA sanctioned games for inter-league rankings, including in JRDA tournaments and championships. In addition, Level 3 skaters are expected to help teach lower-level skaters, and to be ambassadors for their league, JRDA, and for flat track roller derby
