| Dec. 15, 2015 garyheifner 649 posts | volleyball question Play in a senior volleyball league. Play occurred that caused chaos. Player serves deep over the net, back line guy smashes the ball and hits his own guy in the back of the head. Ball rebounds back to the guy who smashed it and he hits it over the net. Is that a valid play???? |

| Dec. 15, 2015 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | would this be the .44 cor....or the safer 52. cor........ |
| Dec. 15, 2015 Omar Khayyam 1357 posts | I think it would be allowed if the player were between 6 and 12 feet high, although not all umps can judge height correctly (especially on the tall guys). |
| Dec. 16, 2015 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Perhaps the Senior Volleyball League should look at placing screens behind players so they won't have to worry about head shots? |
| Dec. 16, 2015 k man Men's 65 326 posts | Not sure if he had both feet in the box. |
| Dec. 16, 2015 Webbie25 Men's 70 2414 posts | Has your league now mandated rear facing helmets to protect you head, and concussion protocol? I sure hope he doesn't sue for whiplash! (maybe the ball was deflated a couple pounds). |
| Dec. 16, 2015 Bubble Gum 122 posts | Did the player smash the ball with a Miken or Dudley? |
| Dec. 16, 2015 swing for the fences Men's 50 1224 posts | bubble gum, was that Miken or Dudley shaved or rolled? |
| Dec. 16, 2015 LoopDaddy 12 posts | Were either the smasher or the smashee from Cornerstone and are they rated Plus Players? |
| Dec. 16, 2015 Slap hitter 28 posts | I'm sure it damaged the chemistry between the two |
| Dec. 16, 2015 Benji4 Men's 55 289 posts | Ask Millette on the old scout website I'm sure he knows. Congrats again to Cornerstone on their championship. |
| Dec. 17, 2015 Garocket Men's 55 259 posts | All jokes aside and all of them are pretty dang good. I would say yes it is legal. What rule did it break? The smasher did have contact by another player between smashes. I do not think he could carry it with his head LOL |
| Dec. 17, 2015 Garocket Men's 55 259 posts | This is what I found on the Volleyball rules: 3.2 Contacted ball: A player who contacts the ball shall be considered as playing the ball. ******3.3 Contact of the ball with the body: The ball may be hit with any part of the body above the waist and still be in play. If it hits below the waist it is a foul. The ball cannot come to rest visibly on the body. |
