We differentiate between:
- Challenges (30 minutes),
- Bouts (1 hour).
- Open scrimmage (no overall score; each jam is an island, the scrimmage goes on as long as it is scheduled). Scrimmage information can be found here.
- Roster form
- Challenge submission form opens March 1st at noon Pacific.
PLEASE NOTE: The form typically fills up beyond the number of available challenge spots before 12:05pm Pacific. Please set an alarm; entries completed after 12:05 almost never get scheduled.

General Info About RollerCon Games
- Any scrimmage-safe MVP or Skater pass holder with validated insurance can skate or captain a Challenge. Off Skates passholders may captain (off skates), as well.
- RollerCon games are open for viewing to all RollerCon passholders and RC passholders only. Your family and friends can get tickets to see your game! We call it an Off Skates Convention Pass. Only passholders can enter the facility. We recommend that you get them in advance when they are inexpensive. They are NOT inexpensive on site; we price them higher to intentionally discourage civilians who don’t understand our culture from coming in to gape at us.
CHALLENGES:
- Challenges are played by WFTDA, USARS & RDCL rules with officials staffed by our Officiating Management. CCRDL ruleset is also approved by our insurance, but to be scheduled, the captains must recruit officials.
- All other rulesets can be considered by emailing planning@rollercon.com before February 15th (if you want to be scheduled in the same year) with a copy of the ruleset and the assurance that you can recruit officials. If WFTDA insurance will cover it, and you have refs, your ruleset will be approved and you’re invited to submit your game to the queue on March 1st.
- 30 min Challenges are scheduled in 45 minute slots. We are very aggressive about staying on schedule. We reserve the right to shorten games to make up time on the schedule.
- Everyone must be ready 10 minutes before your scheduled time! On track skater warm-ups are not guaranteed for Challenges, so arrive ready to play. No skater may join late.
- If the challenge starts late for any reason, the time is shaved off the end of that challenge. We always stick to our schedule.
- Challenge period clocks NEVER STOP.
- Teams may use one time out and one review, but that time comes out of their playtime. The last jam ends naturally, but no jam will start after the time slot ends.
- Skaters foul out after 4 penalties.
FULL LENGTH BOUTS
- Full length bouts are WFTDA regulation bouts played by WFTDA rules and procedures with the addition of 20-rosters unless planned by another ruleset in advance.
- All other relevant rules from the Challenge section above apply, especially the dire warnings about staying on schedule.
This is the RollerCon live game schedule. If you don’t see any entries, make sure the dates for RollerCon are showing by clicking the “look for more link” on the calendar.

- CAPTAINS: If you’re a captain, you find out first! When you get scheduled, we set up an entry for your bout in our calendar, and it appears immediately in the RollerCon app. Google emails you (as long as your email is right in the form). Congratulations!
- PLAYERS: If you’re a player hoping you made a roster, the answer is a little more complicated. Captains are in charge of letting you know! If you filled out a google form for the game, it will be easy for the captain to contact you, so your odds are good. Most captains get in touch when they know the game has been scheduled. If you tried to get on the game a different way (like commenting on a facebook thread in our Challenges group), well, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Check back however you found out about the game. Sometimes Captains update threads with info, or post spreadsheets to fill out, or start FB groups… it’s entirely up to the Captains of the game.
- The schedule is live in the app as it’s being scheduled. BUTTTT
: the actual full challenge schedule is NOT FINAL until we publish it and announce it. The entire schedule is tentative until we announce otherwise. Games sometimes get moved.
- If you do get an email from google calendar with the game, it will be adjusted to your local time zone. Look it up in the app to see Vegas time.
- We cannot hand out contact info or tell you if you’re on a roster. Sorry.
- We don’t manage rosters in any way that affects players. We don’t tell them anyone can/can’t be on it, we don’t know or manage skill levels, we don’t know if a person on the vegan team secretly eats hot dogs. That is 100% captains.
