In reaction to your 5 point scoring pass explanation around 24:00,
That scoring pass would be a 3 point scoring pass. In order to earn the
NOTT points for that opposing blocker and jammer, there has to be scored
upon an opposing blocker. Which is not the case in this specific scenario 🙂
**Exception**
Scenario:
Black jammer is on a scoring pass but has not scored any points yet. Black
jammer gets send to the box. When black jammer is serving time, two white
blockers get send to the box as well.
Black jammer is done serving their penalty and reenters the track legally,
jam ends. 2 points.
+Bitches Bruze explains the basics of roller derby. Man, it’s like rocket
science, only without rockets, and with extra science! The concept of “The
Pack” is hard to wrap my head around, and it gives perspective on the high
level of skill required by the refs!

So to put a different angle on the pack/score scenarios from 23:15-26:00,
what if the yellow jammer was well behind the pack when the jam ended and
there were one or more blue blockers OOP in front of the pack? Would you
say that the OOP points earned also earn any NOTT points? I’m inclined to
say no and to question the 5-point pass you described in the video segment.
Looking at the section on earning NOTT points ( 7.2.1.1 – 7.2.1.1.5), it is
a subsection of and directly below 7.2.1, which explains the points scored
specifically by passing opponents on the track. That and the use of the
word “also” in 7.2.4.1, well below both of the other sections, says to me
that these are a separate tally from the points described above that entry.
Thank you so much for this!!!! Understanding the engagement zone and pack
has been such a challenge for me, and I absolutely get it now!
Hey guys I just want to draw your attention to this awesome set of videos
by Bitches Bruze. Really useful if your a freshie or rookie.

First of all, awesome video! I have advised our entire league to review it
to learn the pack principles presented.
I want to ask a scoring question as it relates to scenario “I” (as
illustrated at 25:32 of the video). I want to modify one aspect of the
situation though and say the Blue blocker is not in a penalty, but had been
bumped off the track by Team Yellow, before the Yellow jammer passed her at
the hips ie. she was out of bounds from a check before the Yellow Jammer
arrived. If it ended as the freeze frame at 25:32 where all blockers are
in the engagement zone, does that change the scoring in any way? You
indicated the score would be 0 for that and I agree, but some people are
claiming that going past the OOB Blue Blocker counts as a point BEFORE
scoring any points from the 3 skaters in advance of the zone. Hope that
makes sense. Thanks in advance.
@6:28 I said “penalty”, woo hoo!
Awesome resource thank you! However in a way it’s turning me off Derby 🙁
I feel a little like how is a human supposed to asses all of this
information while hitting and getting hit.
