OFFICIALS

A game of Roller Derby requires a crew of on-skates Referees, as well as Non-Skating Officials to ensure safe, fair & legal gameplay.  They are also responsible for keeping track of points, displaying scores and penalties, timing jams and players in the penalty box as well as collecting derby stats.

​

 If you’d like to learn to officiate Roller Derby, we can help you. Potential Referees go through freshie training (the same as skaters) to learn to skate & fall safely. You will also learn Roller Derby specific skills. 

New Referees need to pass a Referee test including rules knowledge, penalty codes & hand signals and of course skating skills like stopping, transitions and a keen track awareness. New Referee’s & NSO’s can learn all of this and more while participating in a weekly scrimmage with the team. 

At EVRD, we have two WFTDA Level 1 Certified Skating Officials and Non-Skating Officials with literally hundreds and hundreds of games experience to pass on to you.
