Fun Is Number One
It's a sweet day full of trademark Funkalicious good vibrations and volley camaraderie; maybe catch a buzz and win a prize, too. REC and C level event explained - Teams of 4 or 5 need at least 1 female - Teams of 6 need 2 females FOR SAFETY - No net contact - at all. Touch the net = point for the other team. - No contact with opponents under the net *We need everyone to control their bodies, to keep barefoot volleyball a non contact sport - safety first. FOR FAIRNESS - This day is about ball control, placement and teamwork - not individual hitter power. That flavor of tourney is Intermediate level (and we do offer those). So, in the spirit of maintaining a true lower octane Recreational vibe: - NO SPIKING - balls may not be swung at and hit DOWN. (Balls MAY be swung at and sent in an upward or level trajectory) Place the ball with strategy: shoot it, roll it, poke it, dink it, cut it, place it. - No throwing/pushing the ball down for a point (sticky finger ball directs down) - No attacking the serve (spiking/blocking the serve back) Other than that, we pretty much leave you to the fun. Rotation on the serve is just fine, but not required. We do not call lifts, carries, double contacts or throws to teammates or up and over. |
