• What are "bouts"? Sorry for my ignorance, but I'm afraid this may not be everyday language.
  •  Done The word "bout" is used for a match in fighting sports like fencing, boxing and roller derby. Linked to the wiktionary.
• Any reason why "Fresh Meat" and "Boot Camp" are so named?
  • Not aside from the obvious. Roller Derby terms, inherited from the leagues in the US.
