    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    Skaters may legally re-enter the track in front of the opponent who forced them out-of-bounds, if the opponent when out-of-bounds at any point after the initiating block. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Skaters are allowed to re-enter the track in front of the opponent who forced them out-of-bounds, but only if the opponent also went out-of-bounds after delivering the initiating block. This means that if the opponent went out-of-bounds at any point after the initial block, the skater can legally re-enter the track in front of them. This rule allows skaters to regain their position if the opponent is penalized for going out-of-bounds.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    If a blocker lines up with any part of their skate touching the ground behind the jammer line after the jam starting whistle, the blocker: 

    • A.

      Earns a false start and must serve 30 seconds in the penalty box.

    • B.

      Must skate clockwise until the blocker has yielded to at least one blocker from the opposing team.

    • C.

      Can engage other players immediately. Touching over the jammer line is considered "no impact/no penalty."

    • D.

      Must yield to all skaters in proximity, including the opposing jammer, to avoid a false start penalty.

    Correct Answer
    D. Must yield to all skaters in proximity, including the 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 they cannot engage other players immediately and must wait until they have yielded to at least one blocker from the opposing team. Touching over the jammer line is considered "no impact/no penalty." Serving 30 seconds in the penalty box for a false start is incorrect.

      Hip

    • D.

      Above the shoulder

    Correct Answer

Having three timeouts allows teams to strategically manage their gameplay and make necessary adjustments throughout the game.

    Rate this question:

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    C. Re-enter behind all in-play blockers.
    Explanation
    When re-entering the track from the penalty box, a skater must re-enter behind all in-play blockers. This means that the skater cannot re-enter at the front of the pack or skate onto the track immediately, regardless of where the pack is. They must wait for all in-play blockers to pass before re-entering the track.

    • A.

      Failure to yield

    • B.

      Too many skaters on the track

    Explanation
    All of the options listed are examples of illegal procedure penalties in the context of the given question. Failure to yield, too many skaters on the track, improper uniform, and removing safety equipment are all actions that go against the rules and regulations of the activity being referred to. Hence, all of these options can result in an illegal procedure penalty.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    When initiating a block, a skater must be in bounds, but may pick up momentum for the block from out of bounds prior to returning the track. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    When initiating a block, a skater must be in bounds, but they cannot pick up momentum for the block from out of bounds prior to returning to the track. This means that the skater must be completely within the boundaries of the track when initiating the block, and cannot use any momentum gained from being out of bounds. This rule is in place to ensure fair play and safety for all skaters involved.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Using an impenetrable wall to impede an opponent is illegal. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Using an impenetrable wall to impede an opponent is illegal because it goes against the rules and spirit of fair play in any competition or game. Impeding an opponent's progress by creating an obstacle that cannot be overcome is considered unfair and gives the person creating the wall an unfair advantage. It prevents the opponent from being able to compete on an equal playing field and undermines the integrity of the game. Therefore, using an impenetrable wall to impede an opponent is rightly deemed illegal.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    A jammer must legally pass an on-the-track opposing blocker to score points on players not on the track. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    In roller derby, a jammer is a designated player who scores points by passing opposing blockers on the track. According to the rules, the jammer must legally pass an opposing blocker who is on the track in order to score points on players who are not on the track. This means that the jammer cannot simply bypass or ignore the opposing blocker, but must successfully navigate around or through them in a legal manner. Therefore, the statement "A jammer must legally pass an on-the-track opposing blocker to score points on players not on the track" is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    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. False
    Explanation
    A skater who is lead jammer cannot call off the jam while being removed from play due to a penalty. The lead jammer has the ability to call off the jam by repeatedly placing their hands on their hips, but if they are removed from play due to a penalty, they lose this ability. Only a skater who is actively on the track and not serving a penalty can call off the jam as the lead jammer. Therefore, the statement is false.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    What is the maximum number of skaters from one team that can be seated in the penalty box at one time? 

    • A.

      Three

    • B.

      Four

    • C.

      Five

    • D.

      Two

    Correct Answer
    A. Three
    Explanation
    The maximum number of skaters from one team that can be seated in the penalty box at one time is three. This means that if more than three skaters from the same team receive penalties simultaneously, they will have to wait for their turn to serve the penalty.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    What happens when a jammer who has not been declared lead jammer successfully calls off the jam? 

    • A.

      The jammer receives an Illegal Procedure penalty

    • B.

      The Captain receives an Insubordination Penalty

    • C.

      Nothing

    Correct Answer
    A. The jammer receives an Illegal Procedure penalty
    Explanation
    When a jammer who has not been declared lead jammer successfully calls off the jam, they receive an Illegal Procedure penalty. This is because only the lead jammer has the authority to call off the jam, and any other jammer attempting to do so is considered a violation of the rules.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    What is the referee signal for a penalty?

    • A.

      No whistle signal

    • B.

      Two rapid whistle blasts

    • C.

      One long whistle blast

    • D.

      Two long whistle blasts

    Correct Answer
    C. One long whistle blast
    Explanation
    The referee signal for a penalty is one long whistle blast. This signal is used to indicate that a penalty has been awarded to a team. The long whistle blast is a clear and distinct sound that can be easily heard by players and spectators, ensuring that everyone is aware of the penalty decision. It is an important signal for maintaining fairness and order in the game, as it signifies a significant event that can impact the outcome of the match.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    At most, how many seconds can elapse after the completion of a timeout, barring additional timeouts before the next jam begins? 

    • A.

      15

    • B.

      20

    • C.

      30

    • D.

      60

    Correct Answer
    C. 30
    Explanation
    After the completion of a timeout, a maximum of 30 seconds can elapse before the next jam begins. This means that the teams have 30 seconds to regroup, strategize, and make any necessary adjustments before the next jam starts. Any additional timeouts taken before the next jam will not affect this 30-second time limit.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    A jammer must stay in bounds to remain lead jammer. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    A jammer does not need to stay in bounds to remain lead jammer. Lead jammer status is determined by the first jammer to legally pass all opposing blockers on their initial pass. Once a jammer has obtained lead jammer status, they can still lose it if they commit a penalty or get passed by the opposing jammer. Staying in bounds is important for scoring points, but it is not directly related to lead jammer status.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    Helmet covers may be retrieved while skating in which direction?

    • A.

      Clockwise

    • B.

      Counter-clockwise

    • C.

      Neither

    • D.

      A and B

    Correct Answer
    D. A and B
    Explanation
    The correct answer is A and B. Helmet covers can be retrieved while skating in both clockwise and counter-clockwise directions. This means that regardless of the direction in which someone is skating, they can still retrieve their helmet cover.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    What is the result of the following scenario? A downed skater re-entering the track causes an opposing skater to stumble but not fall or lose relative position.

    • A.

      No call, legal scenario

    • B.

      Penalty

    • C.

      Expulsion

    Correct Answer
    A. No call, legal scenario
    Explanation
    In this scenario, a downed skater re-entering the track causes an opposing skater to stumble but not fall or lose relative position. Since the opposing skater did not fall or lose relative position, there is no penalty or expulsion. Therefore, the correct result is "No call, legal scenario."

    Rate this question:

  • 20. 

    A skater, having gone out of bounds or straddling who briefly and unintentionally completely returns to the track on one skate in their efforts to remain or return out of bounds will receive a cutting the track penalty. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The explanation for the answer "False" is that if a skater goes out of bounds or straddles the track, and then briefly and unintentionally returns to the track on one skate in their efforts to remain or return out of bounds, they will not receive a cutting the track penalty.

    Rate this question:

  • 21. 

    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. False
    Explanation
    The explanation for the answer "False" is that when a jammer's helmet cover falls to the ground, the pivot cannot pick it up to become the active jammer. In roller derby, the jammer is a designated position and only the jammer can score points for their team. The pivot, on the other hand, is a blocker who can take over as the jammer if the original jammer passes them the helmet cover during the jam. However, if the helmet cover falls to the ground, it cannot be picked up by the pivot or anyone else to become the active jammer.

  • 22. 

    A legal star pass is completed when:

    • A.

      The helmet cover leaves the Jammer's helmet

    • B.

      When the jammer hands the star to the pivot and the pivot is in full possession

    • C.

      After the jammer passes or tosses the helmet cover to the pivot and it is in the pivot's hand, or when the pivot picks up the jammer helmet cover from the floor and puts in on their helmet.

    • D.

      When the pivot is in possession of the jammer helmet cover, in their hand or on their helmet, regardless of how it was transferred.

    • E.

      When the helmet cover is on the former Pivot's helmet with the stars visible.

    Correct Answer
    B. When the jammer hands the star to the pivot and the pivot is in full possession
  • 23. 

    It is a penalty to touch an opponent with forearms or hands for three or more seconds.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because in most sports, including basketball, it is considered a penalty to touch an opponent with forearms or hands for three or more seconds. This rule is in place to prevent players from impeding the movement of their opponents or gaining an unfair advantage by excessively contacting them. Violating this rule can result in a foul or penalty being called against the player.

    Rate this question:

  • 24. 

    If a skater is illegally blocked outside of the engagement zone, they may legally counter block. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    If a skater is illegally blocked outside of the engagement zone, they may legally counter block. This means that if a skater is illegally obstructed by another skater outside of the designated area for blocking, they are allowed to respond with a counter block within the rules of the game. This rule ensures that skaters have the ability to defend themselves and maintain fair play even if they are unfairly targeted outside of the engagement zone.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 

    A referee must give you a warning before issuing which types of penalties?

    • A.

      Failure to return to the engagement zone

    • B.

      Multi-Player Blocks

    • C.

      Use of hands

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Failure to return to the engagement zone
    Explanation
    A referee must give you a warning before issuing a penalty for failure to return to the engagement zone. This means that if a player fails to re-engage with the opponent after being separated, the referee will first give a warning before penalizing them. This allows the player an opportunity to correct their behavior before facing more serious consequences.

    Rate this question:

  • 26. 

    What kind of penalty would be issued in the following scenario?An upright skater re-enters the track from out-of-bounds in front of multiple in-bounds skaters during a no pack scenario, resulting in the skater having bettered their position. 

    • A.

      Illegal Procedure

    • B.

      Cutting the Track

    • C.

      No Impact/No Penalty

    • D.

      Thumbs Up

    Correct Answer
    B. Cutting the Track
    Explanation
    In this scenario, the penalty that would be issued is "Cutting the Track". This is because the skater re-entered the track from out-of-bounds in front of multiple in-bounds skaters during a no pack scenario, which resulted in the skater gaining a better position. Cutting the track refers to when a skater goes out-of-bounds and re-enters the track in a way that improves their position or gives them an unfair advantage.

    Rate this question:

  • 27. 

    Blockers who advance or chase the jammer out of the engagement zone are considered a part of and belonging to point totals of the previous (just completed) scoring pass. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Blockers who advance or chase the jammer out of the engagement zone are considered a part of and belonging to point totals of the previous scoring pass. This means that if blockers successfully force the jammer out of bounds or prevent them from scoring, it still counts towards the previous scoring pass. In other words, the points are awarded based on the position of the blockers when the jammer initially passed them, regardless of what happens afterwards. Therefore, the statement is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 28. 

    Which referees are allowed to expel a skater?

    • A.

      Any of the referee staff

    • B.

      Only the jammer referees

    • C.

      Only the head referee

    • D.

      The jammer referee and the head referee

    Correct Answer
    C. Only the head referee
    Explanation
    Only the head referee is allowed to expel a skater. This means that the other referees, including the jammer referees, do not have the authority to expel a skater. The head referee is responsible for making important decisions and enforcing the rules of the game, including the power to expel a skater if necessary.

    Rate this question:

  • 29. 

    If referee is not sure whether an action warrants a penalty or expulsion, it must be called as:  

    • A.

      No Impact/No Penalty

    • B.

      Penalty

    • C.

      Expulsion

    Correct Answer
    B. Penalty
    Explanation
    If the referee is uncertain about whether an action warrants a penalty or expulsion, it is best to err on the side of caution and call it as a penalty. This ensures that the potential infraction is addressed appropriately and that the game remains fair and competitive. Calling it as "No Impact/No Penalty" could potentially allow for unfair play to go unpunished, while calling for expulsion may be too severe if there is doubt. Therefore, calling it as a penalty is the most reasonable course of action in this situation.

    Rate this question:

  • 30. 

    Which of the following safety gear may be removed when seated in the penalty box? 

    • A.

      Helmet

    • B.

      Mouth Guard

    • C.

      Both A and B

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    B. Mouth Guard
    Explanation
    When seated in the penalty box, the player may remove their mouth guard for comfort or to communicate more easily. However, they must keep their helmet on at all times for safety reasons. Therefore, the correct answer is "Mouth Guard" because it is the safety gear that may be removed while in the penalty box.

    Rate this question:

  • 31. 

    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. True
    Explanation
    Teammates, managers, and coaches are not allowed to physically enter the designated penalty box area to communicate with a penalized skater. This rule ensures that the skater serves their penalty without any external interference or communication from their team.

    Rate this question:

  • 32. 

    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 the last blocker on the track was, who gets the penalty?

    • A.

      Captain

    • B.

      Pivot

    • C.

      Closest blocker to the referee who made the call

    • D.

      No one

    Correct Answer
    C. Closest blocker to the referee who made the call
    Explanation
    In this situation, since the referees are unsure who the last blocker on the track was, the penalty is given to the closest blocker to the referee who made the call. This is because the referee who made the call has the best vantage point to determine which blocker was closest to them. Therefore, that blocker is considered the offender in this scenario.

    Rate this question:

  • 33.

      No Impact/No Penalty

    • B.

      Illegal Procedure Penalty

    • C.

    Correct Answer
    A. No Impact/No Penalty
    Explanation

    • A.

      4 green blockers are more than 10 feet from 4 red blockers.

    • B.

      4 green blockers are more than 10 feet from 3 red blockers and one red blocker has been knocked out of bounds.

    • C.

      3 green blockers and 1 red blocker are more than 10 feet from 3 red blockers and 1 green blocker.

    • D.

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the above
    Explanation
    In all of the given situations, there is a "no pack" scenario. In the first option, 4 green blockers are more than 10 feet from 4 red blockers, indicating that there is no pack formation. Similarly, in the second option, 4 green blockers are more than 10 feet from 3 red blockers, and one red blocker has been knocked out of bounds, again indicating a "no pack" situation. Lastly, in the third option, 3 green blockers and 1 red blocker are more than 10 feet from 3 red blockers and 1 green blocker, once again indicating that there is no pack formation. Therefore, all of the given situations represent a "no pack" scenario.

  • 36. 

    A blocker's proximity to other blockers is measured by their fingertips. 

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that a blocker's proximity to other blockers is measured by their fingertips. However, this is not true. The proximity of blockers is typically measured by their physical position or distance from each other, rather than their fingertips.

    Rate this question:

  • 37. 

    For an in-bounds blocker to regain position in the pack after having fallen behind or recovering from a fall, a skater must:

    • A.

      Catch up to the back of the pack by skating within the track boundaries to be considered back in play.

    • B.

      Skate outside the 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 play.
    Explanation
    When an in-bounds blocker falls behind or recovers from a fall, they must catch up to the back of the pack by skating within the track boundaries in order to be considered back in play. This means they need to skate within the designated area of the track and not go outside of it. By doing so, they can regain their position and continue participating in the game.
