Under what condition may the Pivot receive the helmet cover from the Jammer?

The correct condition for the Pivot to receive the helmet cover from the Jammer is when the Pivot is in bounds and is considered In Play. This situation is crucial because it ensures that the transfer of the helmet cover, which designates the role of the skater (from Jammer to Pivot), occurs while both players are actively participating in the game and adhering to the rules regarding positioning.

In Roller Derby, being "In Play" means that the skater is eligible to participate in the jam, and the transfer of the helmet cover at this time respects the flow and strategy of the game. Therefore, executing this transfer while both skaters are in bounds allows for a seamless continuation of play, ensuring that the Pivot can effectively take on the tactical responsibilities associated with being the Jammer.

Other scenarios, such as a Pivot being out of bounds or the Jammer kneeling, do not meet the necessary criteria for a legal helmet cover exchange. Any instance where either skater is not fully in bounds or In Play at the moment of the exchange may lead to potential penalties or a disruption in the game.
