 Details - Special Cases - Exceptions

Teams can be part of Registered Leagues. Leagues can compete in official tournaments and be represented by multiple teams (one each from various divisions (Mens, Womens, mixed) as well as different age groups.

Similar to a bowling League or a roller derby league, a Roller Dodge League may have many INTERNAL teams with many different team names. However when a league competes against another league, the Travel Team(s) are known by the Official League Name. For example: The Dallas Dodging Dragons (not a real league) might have dozens of teams that play against each other at their home skating rink. During competition with other leagues they will be represented by teams known as...

  • Dallas Dodging Dragons - Mens (Seniors)
  • Dallas Dodging Dragons - Ladies (18-25)
  • Dallas Dodging Dragons - Mixed
  • Et cetera

Tournament details have yet to be determined by vote of League Representatives on various Roller Dodgeball boards. These are things planned as future goals.
