What is this? Disclaimer

The purpose of this glossary is to define common derby vocabulary found in THIS IS ROLLER DERBY and other curriculum documents. We have organized the sections in six categories:
0. Full Glossary
1. Skating Skills
2. Blocking
3. Gameplay
4. Roles

You can either search alphabetically on the Full Glossary tab, or search each section for related terms.

Some terms found in the curriculum are defined in The Rules of Flat Track Roller Derby: https://rules.wftda.com/90_glossary.html
We are not responsible for the content provided in links and would like to ask for your help in keeping this spreadsheet updated.

Please note that some examples show skaters who are not in full safety gear. We do not recommend you skate without full protective gear, as described in the WFTDA Risk Management Guidelines.
