Focus: Learning the referee hand signals, communication and blocker awareness
Everyone gets into one big pack. Referees will be skating around the track signalling various penalties at the skaters (and each other) - these will be hand signals only - no words. It will be the responsibility of the team mates to communicate that a penalty is being called - and what penalty is being called – to ensure their team mates are paying attention. While this is happening on each whistle, the girls have to touch two new people.
