GAME PLAY RULES

Serving Rule

  • The server must not serve Player A more than 2 times in a row during their serve. If Player A is served a 3rd time, that serve is a wash and a re-serve takes place.
  • Server must serve Player B once OR ace player B once before going back to Player A in a service run.
  • If the serve is aced down the seem, that serve will count as a point and will also count as a serve to player B.

Tipping

  • Open handed tipping is NOT allowed

Blocking

  • A block DOES count as a touch.

Setting/Volley

  • A ball may be volleyed while digging a hard driven ball and on the 2nd and 3rd touch.
  • Shoulders, hips, and knees must be square to the direction of the ball while setting over the net.
  • A Serve, free ball or a non-hard driven ball may not be received with a volley. However, these balls may be received overhead. Hands DO NOT need to be touching on an overhead pass, but it does need to be percussive, not a carry, and not a double.

Net Touches are not allowed.

Under the Net

  • A player is allowed to go under the net as long as he/she does not interfere with play or with any other players

Good Sportsmanship

Subs

  • King and Queens League: Each player may have 1 official sub. This official sub can move their player up and down. All other subs cannot move the player up and the best they can do is stay.
  • Official subs may only be the official sub for 1 team per league.
  • Co-ed 2’s – Teams may have subs through the season. During playoffs, subs are only eligible to play if they have played at least 1 game in the season.
