Eventually... Junior Roller Derby is a full contact sport but before there is any contact we make sure you are safe and understand contact, we dont grade people on age but on skill, based on skating level. Safety is our number 1 priority!  

Intro Skaters – Intro skaters are still learning to skate and practicing basic safety, skating, stopping, and falling. They do not play derby, but focus on learning basic skating skills and the very basics of derby.

Skill Level I – Level I skaters are becoming masters of their skates, learning basic game play and teamwork, and beginning to scrimmage and bout positionally. They are beginning to learn more advanced rules and strategies.

Skill Level II – Level II skaters are playing using pushing contact only in scrimmages and games. They are also learning advanced teamwork, rules and regulations, and strategic play; practices emphasize fluidity of motion and building skeletal muscular strength and endurance. Typically, skaters are age 9 or above when they are able to meet Level II requirements, but there is no set age requirement. Level II skaters typically play within their own league.

Skill Level III – Skaters who pass the Skill Level III Assessment demonstrate adult level competency on skates and with the rules. Level III skaters practice, scrimmage and play using full-contact rules. Level III skaters play games for inter-league rankings, and in tournaments and championships. In addition, Level III skaters are expected to help teach lower-level skaters and to be ambassadors for

the league.
