SAT @ 9am Anaheim Grass Volleyball (Intermediate)

Grass Volleyball for Intermediate Players

PLAYERS: For the safety and enjoyment of all players, you must be at an Intermediate and/or above skill level.

NEW PLAYERS: Must check-in with the Event Host.

EVENT HOSTS: Reserve the right to remove players from the RSVP list and/or Event based on the player NOT meeting the required SKILL level of play, NOT being able to keep up with the PACE of the games, posing a RISK on or off the court to other players, NOT following the rules of the Event and/or Park, and/or at their own discretion.

SKILL LEVELS: A fuller description of player skill levels can be found on the "About" page of SoCal Grass Volleyball.

RSVP: You must be listed as "Going" on the RSVP list to play. If you signup for an event, but are then unable to attend, please be courteous and change your RSVP to "Not Going" so that someone on the Waitlist can attend.

WAITLIST: Joining the Waitlist does not guarantee you a spot to play. Players will be added to the "Going" list based on a few factors, including whether one or two nets will be set up that week, reliability of attendance, and balance of players. Priority will be given to regular players.

CANCELLATIONS: If you develop a pattern of RSVPing and then cancelling (for example, you cancel more often than you attend), you may automatically be moved to "Not Going" to allow other players, who want to play and show up consistently, a spot to play.

LATE CANCELATIONS: Late Cancelations will be marked as a "No Show!"

LATE ARRIVALS: If you will be more than 30 minutes late, you must notify the Host. If you develop a pattern of arriving late (regardless if you notify the Host or not), you may be removed from the "Going List" and/or the group.

NO SHOWS: Two "No Shows" and you may be removed from the group!

SAFETY: No collisions with players (on your own team or under net).

TEAMMATES: Volleyball is a team sport. Players are expected to know their position on the court and be aware of their fellow teammates positioning. Players should not be passing/setting/hitting/spiking their teammates ball and/or lunging for every ball simply because it is within their reach.

FORMAT: With 8-14 players, we will play two teams of 4-7 players, with up to six players on each side of the court. With 15-18 players, we will rotate three teams of 5-6 players; two games on, one game off.

FUN: No Arguments! If there is a questionable play, we will do it over.

FAULTS: Let players call their own faults (unless egregious)! BE KIND!

SCORING: Games to 25! Rally scoring. Win by two.

SERVES: Let serves are good. No attacking the serve above the net.

NETS: Touching the net is a fault unless the net is pushed into you.

DINKS: In games of 2s, 3s, 4s, and 5s, Open hand dinks/tips will not be allowed. You must use a closed fist, strike the ball, or roll it off of your hand. You may NOT push, tip, or redirect the ball with an open hand!

BLOCKS: Touching the block will not count as one of the three contacts. The blocker can re-hit the ball.

LEGAL HITS: The ball can be played with all parts of the body EXCEPT the Head. You may not intentionally hit the ball with your HEAD (because it results in an unhygienic, sweaty volleyball).

SETTING: Intentionally setting the ball over the net must be in the direction the player is facing (forward or backwards). Accidental oversets are not a fault. The sets over the net must be clean (with no more than one rotation) and may NOT be redirected. No Throws!

ROTATION: Teams of Four or more players must use a standard rotation where by all players rotate through each position. The serve must come from a backrow player. Backrow players cannot attack the ball from above the net past the ten foot line.

ANTENNAS: No antennas, so the ball must cross the net between the poles.

PARK RULES: We are guests at the park. Please abide by all of the rules of the park posted by the City.

PARKING: Parking is available all around the park, but the best parking is on N Columbine St.

BATHROOMS: Public bathrooms are available near the playground.
