3 touches that result in an immediate win:
Discretion of the referee
For 6th & 7th-8th leagues: first 2 touches can
be bumps or sets; last touch must be an
overhead hit; For 4th-5th, any 3 touches.

same positions as the end of the previous game

control skills: serve, pass, set,
hit and *movement*

skills

many player “touches” as
possible

pong” volleyball is not an ideal
way to master playing skills
8. Defer to referees in matches
9. Promote CHEERING!!
