Atlanta Volleyball Meetup Group

• Sign Up Policy: As a courtesy to those signing up -- ONLY those signing up are guaranteed a spot to play.
If you do not sign up or you are on the waiting list but show up -- you will not play unless there is an open spot, e.g. someone leaves or volunteers / shares their spot. This has become increasingly important. Do not just show up and expect to play. If you are on the waiting list and show up, please understand that the original 12 will always get priority, AND High B+ players only please!

• No Show policy: A "no-show" is when you RSVP 'YES' for an event but fail to attend it. If you are not going to be able to attend, please update your RSVP to "not going" so someone else can have your spot. No-shows hurt the group as it takes a spot away from a member who is willing to come and prevents organizers from getting a fair headcount for their events.

• Please note we can only save your spot up to 1hr after the start time. if you do not show up after 1/2 hour and not let the event host know your status then we will assume you are a no show and your spot will be given to the waitlist.

• The first no show will be exclude from the next sign up. Individuals with two (2) no-shows will be removed from the group and will not be allowed for signing up in the future event. No conversation, no warning, and no exceptions.

• If you are unsure whether you are playing at a High B+ level, please check with one of the host(s) prior to reserving a spot. It is the discretion of the host(s) to cancel your RSVP if you don't currently meet the minimum quality of play for High B+.

High B+ level description:
High B+ players are *almost*, but not quite BB (high intermediate). You will typically have no more than one area (serving, passing, setting, returning, defensive positioning, offensive strategy, and mobility) that still needs improvement before moving up to BB. At the High B+ level, executing these skills may be at times inconsistent but the effort to improve and play 3 hit volleyball is there. Whereas BB players are well-rounded in all areas, but at a minimum, their passes and sets are very consistent.

Rules. The Rules that we will be playing by are:

1. No open handed passing or returns/hits. Open handed only allowed on the set (2nd touch of the ball on offense).
2. No carries (that includes open handed dinks or "indoor dinks")
3. No hand setting over the net
4. No double contact (a player contacts the ball twice in succession or the ball contacts
   various parts of the player’s body successively)
5. No hitting the net
   Location. Don White Memorial Park. 705 B Riverside Road. About a quarter mile east of Highway 9 and Riverside Park. The exact location of the court is few dozen yards south of Riverside Road and further west from the the bridge than is indicated by the push pin on the Google Map.

Feedback. Your feedback on how to improve this meetup is encouraged and appreciated. Remember, this is for fun and no lousy attitudes allowed. :)

See you on the sand!
