The Sulphur City Steam Rollers’ annual sell-out event, Slam Rock returns to the city for its sixth year on Saturday June 29th 2019!

Slam Rock 2019 sees the Steam Rollers’ Motley Crew take on the Living Dead Rollers in an on-skate battle not for the faint-hearted.

With a mix of Slam Rock veterans, along with some of the league’s newer players, Motley Crew are sure to have a large group of supporters in the crowd and it is anticipated tickets will sell quickly.

Half-time entertainment will include the Steam Rollers’ annual Slam Rock Air Guitar Competition, where members of the crowd are invited ‘on stage’ to show off their skills in the hope of winning a real guitar.

Prizes will also be given to the Best Dressed Adult and Child Rock Stars and spot prizes will be floating around too. Major sponsors The Rock FM will also have giveaways on the night.

The Sulphur City Steam Rollers will be selling merchandise and raffle tickets to their annual ‘Experience Rotorua’ fundraising raffle, which includes prizes from a large number of different Rotorua tourism operators including Rotorua Duck Tours and Polynesian Spa.

In previous years, tickets to Slam Rock have sold out up to a week prior to the event. So the organisers recommend that tickets are purchased well in advance.

Doors open at 6pm with game formalities commencing at 6:45pm. Food, non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase.

Doors open: 6:00pm
Game start: 6:45pm
EST. End time: 8:45pm

How the game is played:
In the game of roller derby, which is full contact and has been likened to ‘rugby on skates’, players skate around an oval track in a pack made up of eight skaters, four from each team, who hold the position of blockers.

Blockers must remain within a certain distance from each other at all times. Also on the track are jammers, one from each team who are the point scorers. It is the jammers’ role to attempt to ‘break’ through the pack and score points for each opposition player they pass.

Following an extensive rule set, modern roller derby also includes a large group of officials who keep the players in line and track game statistics. There are up to seven referees required during a game, each with individual responsibilities. Up to 14 Non-skating Officials are also required, and generally include newer skaters, or in Steam Roller terminology, Groupies.

Spread the word - Slam Rock is coming!
