www.spindletoprollergirls.com The Game Flat Track Roller Derby Games consist of two 30 minute periods. Each period consists of a series of 2 minute jams. For each jam there will be five skaters from each team on the track. The object of the game is to assist your jammer in scoring the most points and stop the opposing jammer from scoring. Roller Derby utilizes both offense and defense at the same time in any given jam. Each team has: 3 Blockers 1 Pivot 1 Jammer
