Recreational roller derby is suited for a larger participation group, as it is geared for women that for varying reasons, do not want to play aggressive, full-contact roller derby. Think of it like flag football versus the CFL, or playground basketball versus the NBA. We can still have all the fun and team spirit of roller derby, without being full-time semi-professional athletes, and without the higher risk of injuries.
