A roller derby bout is played in two 30 minute periods (60 minutes total) broken into jams as a single jam may last up to 2 minutes.
In each jam the two teams each put 5 players on the track: 1 Jammer, 3 Blockers, and 1 Pivot but only the Jammer is allowed to score the points.
The way a Jammer scores points by passing the opposing team's Blockers which will count for a maximum of 1 point of a pass per blocker so there could be a possibility of 5 points scored if you pass all five members of the opposing team.
Within those two minutes the Jammer will try to pass through the whole pack of five players as many times as possible within that period of time and those are how the points are accumulated.

MATCH THOUGHTS
In the first real thriller of the day during the premiere of the Team ICE telecast happened in the sport of roller derby where Team ICE was actually down to Degrassi High at halftime 97-81 before coming back to win 192-184 in the 2nd half.
New Head Coach Nadja Bender had to find a way to replace Allison Shields and Tracy Kimmell who were both amazing for many years in this sport and she replaced those Jammers with Allison's little sisters Strawberry and Kay.
Strawberry Shields had a massively great performance in her first Team ICE action of the day as she racked up a total of 76 points but she had an impressive 34 point jam during the 2nd half where ICE took their first lead over Degrassi.
Allison Shields' highest all-time for a single jam performance was actually 29 points which is what Kay Shields tied her with today to take 2nd place and beating Tracy Kimmell's all-time record of 27 points so these girls did work.
Right now Supersonic Kay is having a fabulous day so far as she'll run in the relay races right before playing receiver for her sister during football so she can have a massive day here.
Jenny Sense did some work today too but she might be switched with Farah Holt next week according to ICE Head Coach Nadja Bender who wants someone to lead that third line better because the third line got killed by Degrassi's third line today.
Farah Holt really turned some heads because she did a great job of pivoting for Strawberry in that first line but we all know the Summers sisters are rough as hell as blockers as Mackinley looked great out there today in her ICE debut.
The interesting thing will be to see how the NITRO teams put a team together against ICE because they have some real tough blockers and Kay & Strawberry make for a scary tandem.
Team ICE has yet to lose to Degrassi High and this was the closest they came so far so we'll see what happens in basketball which is said to be a weak team for ICE.
ICE now has 6 victories on Degrassi heading into this evening's contests.
