At the signal of the head official, they will proceed to the center line to shake hands with their opponents. The starting line-up will remain on the court for the line-up check, and the libero shall be waived in by the head official. Procedure for Ties in Pool Play Ties in Pool Play DO NOT LEAVE your court area until your pool has been decided!!! The Tie Breaker Procedure outlined below will only be enforced in the event of a 3-way tie in which one of the teams would be eliminated from moving into the Gold Division. For all 2-way ties, the team that won the pool play match (head to head) between the two teams tied for position will take the higher position. 3-way ties for non-gold division placement will be decided by the following CRITERIA: - Match %: matches won divided by matches played - Set %: sets won divided by sets played - Point %: points scored divided by the total points scored by the team s opponents in that pool - Coin Flip 3-way ties for teams all moving onto gold division placement will be decided with CRITERIA above 3-way ties for 1st place, with 2 teams moving into the Gold/Championship Division - The team with the greater set %/point % (as described in the CRITERIA above) shall be awarded first place. The other two teams shall play one 15-point set (switch at 8) for the remaining playoff position. The team that wins the playoff set will be awarded 2nd, the loser will be awarded 3rd. The team that was awarded first will provide the work team for the play-off. 3-way ties for 2nd place, with 2 teams moving into the Gold/Championship Division - The teams will be seeded using the CRITERIA above. The team seeded 1st will be the bye team and play the winner of the set between the two remaining teams. The team that was!13

If, due to formatting, there are any other tie scenarios, the procedure outlined in the USAV Rule Book, page , will be followed. **If one of the teams in a 3-way tied pool leaves the site before the determination that a tiebreak is necessary, that team will automatically become the lowest placed team (among the teams that are tied) and the remaining 2 teams will play one tie-breaking set to 15 (switch at 8), if needed, with a work team to be assigned.
