server until the ball is out of play. A rally is completed when the playing actions result in a point awarded to either team."

2 Scrimmages: A volleyball scrimmage must include one or more of the following: 1. Each server shall serve 3-5 consecutive serves regardless if the point was scored before the other team would get the ball. (rotate) 2. Games would start at point 4 all and end at point 25 or a game could be timed with no point cap. Major Rules Changes for 2014 and 2015 Playing Surface (1.1.1)-For facilities constructed after 2016, a free zone of 3 meters (9 feet, 9 inches) is required. Rationale: Increases player safety and lessens the interference of fans. This change may also allow for longer rallies with increased free space. Assessment of Sanctions (6.4)-Delete the sanction level of expulsion (dismissal for the remainder of the current set). A further sanction after a penalty (red card) or the first instance of extremely offensive conduct would result in disqualification (dismissal for the remainder of the match). Rationale: Places a greater emphasis on sportsmanship by not allow allowing coaches or players to return after being expelled. Rally and Completed Rally ( )-Modify the definition of a rally as follows: Current definition: "A rally is the sequence of playing actions from the moment of the service contact by the server until the ball is out of play. A rally is completed when the playing actions result in a point awarded to either team." New definition: A rally begins from the moment of the service contact by the server until the ball is out of play. A rally is completed when a point is awarded to either team. Rationale: This will allow a coach the option of substituting when play is stopped to issue a penalty (red card). Prior to this change, if play was stopped to issue a penalty point, it was not considered "playing actions," so the rally was not considered "complete". A substitution would not have been allowed. Pre-Match Warm-up Protocol ( ) The prematch warm-up protocol (Table 2) may be adjusted by conference policy for the first 20 minutes (until the 40- minute mark on the clock). The adjustment to the current protocol may only be made on a conference level and may not be used for non-conference matches. The NCAA championships will follow the default warm-up protocol (Table 2). Rationale: This change allows conferences to alter their warm-up protocol due to facility space constraints. Accident or Injury ( ) Allow coaches the option of replacing the injured libero with the player she came in for and then allow one substitution for the replacement player (only). Rationale: For all other injured players, the coach may substitute any legal substitute. Currently, if play is stopped because the libero is injured, the coach may only return the player that the libero came in for to continue play. This would allow the coach to replace the injured libero with the player she came in for and then allow one substitution for the replacement player. Solid-Colored Jersey ( ) The sleeve(s), and front and/or back of the jersey can each contain a single mascot and or school reference. The mascot/team reference should not exceed 3" x 5" or 4" x 4". Rationale: Allows for displays of school spirit while keeping the integrity of the solid-colored uniform rule. Player Contact with Net (15.2.1)-Contact with the net outside the antenna is legal provided it does not interfere with the play or is not used as a means of support while playing the ball. Rationale: Allows for more consistency by officials when calling net violation and aligns with other volleyball rules codes. by Anne Pufahl, NCAA Secretary Rules Editor and Joan Powell, NCAA Coordinator of Officials NCAA RULES/TECHNIQUE CHANGES 2014 Significant Editorial Changes Uniform Numbers ( ) Uniform shirts may be numbered from 0 through 99. Timeout Length (11.2.2) Change the default length from 60 seconds to 75 seconds. A timeout may be less than 75 seconds if both teams are ready to play. 2

3 Libero Uniform ( ) It is not required that the libero s shorts be identical to her teammates. Terminology Modification (18.4) Change the terminology from scorekeeper to scorer. Summary of Changes and Points of Emphasis in Officiating Techniques and Mechanics Officials Arrival Time The referees should arrive at least one hour prior to the scheduled match time, And shall be courtside 45 minutes before match time. Line judges and scorers should be courtside 30 minutes prior to match time. Indicating Net Fault for Player Number 0 When a player wearing 0 commits a net fault, the referees will form an open 0 with the appropriate hand. Ending Timeouts Early The horn indicates the end of all timeouts. Except for televised matches, if both teams are ready before the clock reaches 0:00, the timeout will end with a horn. Officials Exit Plan The officials should discuss their exit plan during the pre-match briefing. This plan should be communicated with the event manager. If there is an intermission between sets two and three, the officials will use the same exit plan, unless the intermission meeting is in a different location than the locker room. Intermission Warning If an intermission is used between sets two and three, the scoreboard operator will sound the horn at the three-minute mark. If there is no horn, a whistle is not used as an alternative. Deciding Set Court Switch (Televised Match) During a televised match that has a deciding set, if a timeout has not been called by either team, the referees will administer the court switch at eight points and then sound the horn for the media timeout. by Devonie McLarty Officials Assembly ChairINCAA Rules 5 SECTION IX VOLLEYBALL COMMITTEE SECTION 9 CHAIRPERSON AND MHAL REPRESENTATIVE Toni Woody (845) New Paltz High School cell (845) New Paltz, NY twoody@newpaltz.k12.ny.us OCIAA REPRESENTATIVE Debbie Crowe (845) x 244 O Neill HS cell (845) dcrowe@hffmcsd.org What is a "Division Game"?

In the event the postponement of scheduled interscholastic contests is required, the rescheduling of these contests will be determined by the league, conference or section policies. STATE If a state emergency is declared, all schools/school districts will determine whether they should postpone scheduled contests. o If a school/school district determines it is in its community s best interest to postpone a scheduled contest, that is a decision that rests with the Chief School Officer of both schools after consulting with each other. Nevertheless, if one Chief School Officer decides it is in the best interests of his/her school not to play, the contest will be postponed and rescheduled when and if possible. o If an interscholastic athletic event is postponed, it will be rescheduled at a date and time mutually agreed upon by both school districts according to the policies of the league, and/or conference and/or Section. If there is a dispute on a rescheduled date or time, the league president (if there is one) or Section Executive Director in accordance with Section policy will make the final determination. o If a contest cannot be rescheduled, the contest will be declared as a no contest. Therefore, no win or loss will be recorded on the team s season record. Sections will adjust the seeding procedure to ensure no negative impact will be imposed in the seeding procedure. o The NYSPHSAA will follow all appropriate directives and will determine whether interscholastic athletic competition will continue for its member schools. NATIONAL If a national emergency is declared, the NYSPHSAA will follow all appropriate directives and will determine whether interscholastic athletic competition will continue for its member schools. o Sectional Championships If a declared emergency is called during sectional events, the Section will make the determination whether to continue play after consulting with all appropriate health, NYSED and governmental agencies. o NYSPHSAA Championship If a declared emergency is called during NYSPHSAA events, the NYSPHSAA will make the determination whether to continue play after consulting with appropriate health, NYSED and governmental agencies.
