A TOUGH SPORT FOR TOUGH GIRLS強悍女孩的強悍運動

ROLLER DERBY滑輪競速賽

 

Some say that boys have all the fun when it comes to sports, getting most of the attention in rough, exciting games like football, hockey and rugby.But those people obviously haven't heard about a skating-team sport called roller derby.

有些人說，一提到運動，男孩享盡其中的樂趣，在刺激的足球，曲棍球和英式橄欖球中男孩搶盡鋒頭。但這些人很明顯還沒聽過「(女子)滑輪競速賽」這種團隊的滑輪運動。

Star,stripes and blockers星條與阻擋員

 When watching an hour-long "bout" of roller derby, it's easy to identify the players' positions as the girls line up on the skating track. The two teams' pivots with striped helmets are first in line to begin skating when gameplay  begins, followed directly by three blockers form each team. However, the action doesn't truly begin until the two jammers, marked by stars on their helmets, are permitted to start skating.

當看長達一小時的滑輪競速賽時，很容易從列隊的女孩中辨識出選手的位置。帶著條紋頭盔的是隊伍最前面的，比賽開始最先滑出，跟著他們的是三個阻擋員，然而，這重頭戲尚未真的開始，直到頭盔上標記著兩個星星的得分員出來。

The fight begins開始對抗

Once "the pack" of pivots and blockers has advanced 30 feet, the jammers burst forward, trying to fight through the pack.The jammer through becomes the lead jammer, out points their opponents. Each opponent passed by a jammer in the two-minute "jam" means a point earned. The lead jammer is also able to end the jam early.

一旦那群主攻員和阻擋員前進了三十英呎之後，得分員會突然衝出，試圖穿越那群人。
