Tier Three<\/a> event. Play is doubles only. Players are responsible for reviewing the schedule and reporting to play. The overall time commitment will be minimal. Events may require unique athletic skills or physical fitness.<\/p>\n\n\n\nRoster<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rules<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The team that wins two out of three games wins the match. All games are played to 15 points using rally scoring. Matches may be shortened at the official’s discretion. One game played to 21 points will constitute a complete match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each team is entitled to one 30-second time-out per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To start a rally, opposing team members line up across from each other with the roundnet in the center. A point begins when the server hits the ball off the net towards the opposing players. Then, the returning team has three hits to get the ball back onto the net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the serve and return, players can move or hit in any direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The rally continues until a team can\u2019t return the ball onto the net within their three touches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Points are scored when the ball hits the rim, the ground, or bounces more than once on the net.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
