Circuit Training as a Catch-All?

Hello. I am back on MFP 
I started on a roller derby league and we practice 2 times a week for 2 hours. The first 10 minutes or so is skating laps, then usually 20 burpees, stretching, and various other drills like suicide drills (relay style). We do have some periods of rest (but not much). Everyone is dripping sweat and out of breath (even the veteran girls) so I am wonering if I should just use "Circuit Training" in my exercise log. I would pinpoint about 60 minutes to 1.5 hours of total active time. Since it is a combo of cardio and strength I thought circuit training would be the closest thing to input. Any other ideas?

My circuits are pretty hardcore and seem to have a lot of attendees who are home on leave or are ex-marines....
I still log it as circuits even though I am ready to die after the hour is up.0
