Volunteer

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Greenville Roller Derby!

Producing a bout takes a lot of hard work, and not just from the skaters on the track. Being a 100% volunteer-run organization means there’s a lot of effort put in behind the scenes from both GRD players and those who never even lace up skates. If you want to be involved, there's a place for you in GRD.  To get started, please send your responses to the questions below to greenvillerollerderby@gmail.com.
  • What kind of volunteer work are you interested in?
  • What is your availability like?
  • Do you have any physical limitations we should be aware of?
  • If applicable, what other leagues have you volunteered for, and in what roles?

Bout Production​

Non-Skating Officials (NSO)s

Get involved in the action even if you don’t want to skate! There’s no better way to watch a sanctioned roller derby bout (FOR FREE!) than participating as a non-skating official (NSO). There’s no equipment or experience required, and we’ll train you for what ever role you’d like to take on, such as:
  • Scorekeeper: Work with the jammer referees to keep score.
  • Lineup Tracker: Keep track all the skaters in each lineup.
  • Penalty Box Timer: Stand behind the penalty box to ensure skaters serve the proper time when they’ve received a penalty.
  • Penalty Tracker: Stand in the center of the track and work with the referees to keep track of penalties as they happen.
  • Jam Timer:  Stand in the center of the track to start each jam with a whistle blast.  

Referees

Did you know sanctioned flat track roller derby bouts require 7 (SEVEN!) referees? Needless to say, referees are always in demand! They’re essential for ensuring safety and fair play during both scrimmages and sanctioned games. Referees wear full protective gear and roller skates, or sometimes rollerblades depending on preference. No experience required to start—our home referees learn to skate and how to apply the WFTDA ruleset alongside our players during practice.

Medics

Trained volunteer medics are crucial for any roller derby game. If an event arises, medics are tasked with providing care while local emergency services are en route. For this role, you must be a currently certified EMT, paramedic, RN, or PA and able to provide proof of your credentials.

Other Positions

We’re always looking for willing hands to help with graphic design, promotion, merchandise, ticketing, & more! We’ll help you find a role that suits your interests, whether you’re looking to begin your roller derby career or help us out at an upcoming event. We can put your skills to use!
