How did your first session go? I don’t typically skate with my glasses for games but I will for practices and such. They do fall off my face sometimes 😂 I’ve found that getting a sunglasses strap has been helpful!!!
Well, it depends! 😆 In a game, the two teams should be highly contrasted colorwise, and easy to differentiate. But, in mashup or scrimmage situations, where it is team friends playing team friends, you may be calling out names, rather than colors. We typically split up darker tones to lighter tones … but if everyone is in darker tops … well … that’s when formerly sweaty mesh toppers come out! 😂 For new refs, the mesh toppers are REALLY helpful. (My first ref position was a green vs yellow mashup … the yellow-green in between shirts totally threw me off. 🫣)
So this was for YJRD's Punk vs. Pop game and we all had on tie-dye shirts HAHA I was on Team Pop and we wore rainbow tie dye so the refs just called us "Rainbow"😂 Team Punk wore black + grey tie-dye so they were "Black"... We did it for the vibes!!!🤣
I will be studying this profusely 📚 You are the best derby teacher!
I hope your profuse studying has been going well HAHAHA thank you Pete!!

Not me wondering what color the refs call when they issue a penalty to a tie dye jersey skater 😂🤣
