Volleyball Rules
COURT SIZE:
The standard size of a volleyball court is 30 feet wide and 60 feet long. The playfield can be
increased or decreased based on the space available.
NET:
Stretch the net across the center of the court dividing it in half. The net height should be set at 7
feet when playing volleyball, but it can be set to 6 feet or 5 feet 1 inch if all of the players agree
to the change.
NUMBER OF PLAYERS:
Each team should have the same number of players and the there shouldn’t be more than 6
total players.
SERVICE:
Each player shall serve in turn and will continue to serve until side is out. When serving, the ball
must go over the net; if the ball hits the net when served and goes over the net, the ball must be
re-served. If the ball does not go over the net when served or is out of bounds or touches any
team-mate before touching an opponent or opponent’s court, the side is out and the opponent
takes possession and becomes the serving team.
SERVING AREA:
The serving area should be a minimum of 5 feet behind the back boundary of the court. In the
event that the playing area does not provide enough space for such an area, then the serving
area shall extend into the court. The serving area should be located in the right end section of
each court; the width should not exceed 8 feet. (see diagram).
VOLLEY:
Each team is allowed three consecutive ball touches before it is returned to the opponent’s
area.
ROTATION:
After a team has lost its serve, the team receiving the ball for the serve should rotate clockwise,
one player position.
GAME:
The game shall be played to 21 or 15 points. In order to win the match, a team must win two out
of three games.
SCORING:
Only the serving team can score. When the serving team fails to score, it is “side out” and the
receiving team becomes the serving team.
