Cherry Bombe : "No Pack!"-"Pack is here!"-game

15
mins

Objective
Skaters will learn to recognize where a pack is, and also practice speed and sense of urgency.
Activity

There are two options to start this drill:

  1. Skaters skate scattered around the track
  2. Skaters pick a position somewhere in the hall, then close their eyes, and skate forward (carefully!) with their eyes closed for 5-10sec.

Then the drill starts:

  • Trainer yells "No pack!"
  • The ref (if you have any) or the first skater to see it yells "Pack is here!" and indicates where they think the pack is (largest group of in-bounds blockers of both teams/shirt colours within 10ft. of each other).
  • Everyone else reforms to this pack as fast as possible

You can add a team element by asking the skaters to form formations like tripods, or duos. You can add a jammer to the drill if you have teams; of course they can only engage people who are in play!

Check For Learning

Skaters will immediately spot where the pack is, and reform with their team fast.

I skate, train, and ref at Rotterdam Roller Derby as Cherry Bombe #47 since 2022. Before that I skated at The Parliament of Pain The Hague Roller Derby. Have been skating since 2014. I love using LessonStack to write out drills and trainings and share
