What must a Pivot do to legally become the Jammer after picking up the Star from the track?

To legally become the Jammer after picking up the Star from the track, the Pivot must put it on their helmet. This action signifies that they have completed the transition to the Jammer position. The star helmet cover is essential in denoting the player’s role on the track, as only the designated Jammer can score points during the jam.

If the Pivot were to return the Star to the Jammer or handle it in some other way, they would not fulfill the requirement of visibly displaying the Star to the officials and other players, which is crucial for game clarity. Properly placing the Star on the helmet allows the Pivot to announce their new status as the Jammer, making the transition official and recognized on the track.
