CRD runs on volunteers, and we absolutely could not make derby happen without officials, announcers, and crew. You don’t even have to skate to get involved, we’ll teach you everything you need to know for whatever role you want to try!

BECOMING A SKATING OFFICIAL

There are multiple different on-skates ref positions, and as with the new skater program, we can teach you all the skating skills you need to become an on-skates ref!

  • On-skates refs help keep derby safe and fair

  • Positions include Jam Ref, Inside Pack Ref, Outside Pack Ref, and Head Ref

  • Check out these free resources from WFTDA to learn more about on-skates officiating

In addition to skating skills, you’ll also get to practice officiating during practices and scrimmages with the team so you’re ready to start officiating with CRD and beyond! Skating officials must be 18 years or older.

Contact us for more information, or email crd.newskater@gmail.com.
