True or False: No Non-Pivot Blockers may be touching the Jammer or Pivot Lines at the Jam-Starting Whistle.

The statement is true because, in roller derby, the regulations require that no non-pivot blockers are allowed to touch the Jammer or Pivot lines at the moment the jam begins. This rule is designed to ensure a fair and safe start to each jam, as it prevents blockers from having an unfair advantage by being too close to the opposing team’s jammers.

Establishing a clear space at the start of the jam ensures that both teams have a fair opportunity to gain positioning and momentum as the jam begins. This is particularly essential in maintaining the spirit of competition and ensuring safety on the track.

Other options may refer to specific scenarios or interpretations of rules, but they do not accurately reflect the overall standard practice concerning the positioning of non-pivot blockers at the jam-starting whistle.
