Saturday June, 9, 2012. Santa Ana, Ca The OC Roller Girls (OCRG) held the first banked track match in their new home Santa Ana. The Orange Whips beat the Traffic Jammers in a close bout that stayed exciting until the end with the final score being 155 (Orange Whips) – 145 (Traffic Jammers).
This was our first time at a banked track event and it was 10 times the excitement of their flat track matches. The action was fast paced and bigger hits.
The bout (game) consists of 2 periods each one being 30 minutes and an unlimited number of jams can be played in that time period. A jam is 1 minute unless the lead jammer calls it off early by putting her hands on her hips.
Their are up to 5 players from each team on the rink. One jammer (star on helmet), one Pivot (stripe on helmet) and 3 blockers.
Jammers score points by passing members of the opposing team.
Penalties can be accrued through illegal hits which inlclude using elbows, tripping, blocking from behind and holding.

5-19-12 The Rinks, Huntington Beach, Ca. The parking lot smelled delicious with two food trucks outside the front doors cooking up a storm. Walking into the roller hockey rink called which had been converted into a flat track roller derby rink with the use of tape. The roller derby ring is a bit smaller then the traditional roller hockey rink so chairs were set up at both ends and vendor booths lined the way to the rink. With spectators already finding their seats and stadium seating for the VIP ticket holders, The Altar Billies began performing in the “stage” corner, also inside the perimeters of a traditional roller hockey rink.
The first match in the double header night was the Psycho Ex-Girlfriends vs. The Crash Test Bunnies both teams from the OC Roller Girls and it was the Bunnies first match although you wouldn’t have known based on their performance. They put up a good fight against the more experienced Ex-Girlfriends but being from the same league the Ex-Girlfriends must have trained them well. The final score was 126-99 with the Psycho Ex-Girlfriends taking the win.
The Psycho Ex-Girlfriends entered the ring each carrying some sort of weapon. They skated around as a group with one member at a time breaking away from the pack as the announcer called names. The Crash Test Bunnies came in one at a time all smiles ready for their inaugural match.
This roller derby match was much different then the bouts we had covered in the past. In the past we had only covered Renegade Roller Derby completely unaware of the other roller derby league’s nearby. In Renegade Roller Derby there are no rules, no refs but brawl breakers who break up the often full team pile up fights. This non renegade version had rules, refs and much more technique’s however a little less hardcore. Hits have to be made with the hips or shoulder and there are penalties for illegal moves which include using elbows, tripping, blocking from behind and holding. Also in Renegade roller derby the team score 3 points every time the jammer(skater with star on helmet) passes the pivot person(skater with stripe on helmet). In the non-renegade version a jammer scores 1 point for each passed member of the opposing team. Another rule that exists in the non-renegade version is that the lead jammer can call off the jam by putting her hands on her hips. This is done as a strategy to stop the jam before the opposing jammer can score points (thanks Sugar Crash for the info).
