In order to stay on schedule and be fair for weather conditions\, switching sides at 10 points is highly encouraged. \n\n\n\nCan volley any first contact. \n\n\n\nNo open hand tips allowed.\n\n\n\nBlock counts as first contact for the defending team if the ball then enters the defending team’s space. The blocker may play the ball again as the defending team’s second contact.\n\n\n\nNo mandatory rotation. Server order must be followed. \n\n\n\nServer is a back row player. The back row player may not play the ball at or above the top of the net to the opponent’s side while standing on or in front of the 3m line. For efficiency and to avoid confusion\, this rule is mandatory.\n\n\n\nAny player may volley the ball over the net (forwards or backwards) to the opponent’s side provided the ball travels along the trajectory where the players shoulders are facing. NO tricky volleys sideways over the net.\n\n\n\nYour team will be assigned to keep score on a court. We encourage your teammates to take turns so each of you can snack\, hydrate\, and re-apply sunscreen as needed.\n\n\n\n\nOther notes : \n\n\n\n\nA lunch break will be built into the schedule.\n\n\n\nAs Shefford Park has limited food options\, PCV-FVC will have food options available including: beef burgers\, vegetarian burgers\, hotdogs\, chips\, water\, and Gatorade.
