INDOOR VOLLEYBALL GAME RULES
START OF GAME:
A coin toss will be conducted between the two captains and the R1, with the winner choosing to serve first or which side of the court to start on. Teams will remain on the same side at the completion of each set.
# OF PLAYERS ON THE COURT:
There are 6 players maximum on the court at one time (at least 1 of which must be female). There is no maxium to the number of women that can play at one time provided only 6 players are on the court.
SCORING:
All games are rally scoring. In the “rally” game, points will be awarded on both the service and service receive side (ex. Server hits ball into the net, point and serve go to the opposing team). Each match will consist of the best of three games to 21 points. Play continues until a two point advantage is reached or until a team scores 25 points. If time is short, the referee may declare the third set be played to 15 (win by two), or until a team scores 21 points. The team that wins two games first shall be declared the winner.
FORMAT: Teams will play each team in their pool. Winner of each pool advances to Finals. Finals are single-elimination.
TIME OUTS:
Each team is allowed one (one-minute) time-out per game. No carryovers.
PLAYERS ROTATION:
After each side out, players must rotate from the front right to back right position. YOU WILL HAVE TO ROTATE!!
BALL IN PLAY:
Points earned on a service made before the referee’s “ready for play signal” will not count. Server has 10 seconds to serve the ball after the “ready for play signal”. Teams will lose serve if player holds balls later then 10 seconds.
BALL “IN”:
The ball is “in” when it touches the floor of the playing court including the boundary lines.
A ball which hits the ceiling or overhead structure on your side and returns to your side of the court is playable.
BALL “OUT”:
A ball is “out” when the part of the ball which contacts the floor is completely outside the boundary line, touches any object outside the court, or touches the rope, post, net, antenna, etc., outside of the sidelines.
A ball is “out” when it hits the ceiling or overhead structure, then goes over to your opponent’s side.
OFFICIALS: EHS Volleyball Players will be officiating all games.
TEAM HITS:
The team is entitled to a maximum of three hits (in addition to blocking) for returning the ball. If more are used, the team commits the fault of “four hits”. The hits of the team include not only intentional hits, but also unintentional hits.
A player may not hit the ball two times consecutively.
The ball may touch any part of the body.
The ball must be hit, not caught and/or thrown.
FAULTS IN PLAYING THE BALL: (SIDE OUT)
Four hits
Back row player spikes the ball in front of the 10′ line.
Catch/throw.
Double contact; hits ball twice or ball contacts various parts of body in succession.
No “prolonged contact” between the player and the ball, otherwise known as a lift. The contact should continue in one fluid motion and the ball should not come to rest at any time in that motion.
BALL AT THE NET:
The ball sent to the opponents court must go over the net.
The ball may touch the net, including the service.
A ball driven into the net may be recovered within the limits of the three hits, except the service.
PLAYER AT THE NET:
A player can break the plane on a spike and a block, as long as you do not interfere with the opponent.
A side out will occur if a player touches the ball or an opponent in the opponent’s space before or during the opponents hit.
Any contact with the net is a fault, except when a player not attempting to play the ball accidentally touches the net.
Any part of player’s body crosses completely over the center line located under the bottom of the net. (A players hands or feet may touch the line provided that some part of the hand/foot remains either in contact with or directly above the center line).
When the ball is driven into the net and causes it to touch an opponent, no fault is committed.
SERVICE:.
When the serving team wins the rally, the player who served before, serves again.
When the receiving team wins the rally, it gains the right to serve and rotates before actually serving. The player moves from the front right position to the back right position to serve.
No receiving player may leave his or her feet to block a serve.
The server must not touch the end line or a “foot” fault will be called.
BLOCKING:
A block contact is not counted as a team hit, and a team is entitled to three hits to return the ball.
The first hit after the block may be executed by any player, including the one who blocked the ball.
PLAYER(S) EJECTION: Players will be ejected from the tournament if needed.
General unsportsmanlike conduct towards opponent, referee will not be tolerated.
