COACHES and ATHLETIC DIRECTORS……
Welcome to the 2016 volleyball season. As you embark on this season, I wish you and your athletes the best.
Your enthusiasm, energy and knowledge will be passed on to your eager athletes. I look forward to a great year
of volleyball.
There are several CHSAA bylaws that I want to highlight:
1. 1800.21 (Club Coach Rule): A student transferring, moving or for any reason to a new school where
the student’s non-school coach is also a coach of the school team, is considered to be attending for
athletic purposes. The student, as a result of this transfer, will be ineligible for varsity competition for
one calendar year from the date of the transfer in any sport(s) they participated in during the twelve
months prior to the transfer. As used in this Rule, the term “coach” includes any person who coaches,
volunteers (regardless of compensation) or assists in any capacity with the coaching or training of the
school or non-school team.
2. 1800.3 (Athletic Transfer): Any transfer substantially motivated by athletic considerations will cause
the student to be ineligible for one varsity competition for one calendar year from the date of the
transfer in any sport(s) they participated in during the twelve months prior to the transfer. **If a
student transfers to a school where his/her previous coach is a coach of the current school team, that
move will be deemed motivated by athletic consideration. Under provision of this rule, the coach may
be a former school coach or non-school coach (1800.44d).
3. 1900.5 (8th Grade Contact): A person, acting in the capacity of the high school coach or serving in a
role representing the high school, may have informational meetings anytime with 8 th grade students
who live in that high school’s attendance area as established by the school district, or with those 8th
grade students that have pre-registered to attend that high school; the coach may conduct practice
with those eighth graders starting May 1. This contact may include currently registered
underclassman. The Sunday Contact Rule applies to this contact.
4. 2210 (Coach Ejection): A coach ejected from a game is required to complete the following courses
offered online by the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS): Sportsmanship
and Teaching and Modeling Behavior. These courses shall be completed before he/she will be
removed from probation and must be finished in a reasonable amount of time during the season, to
be determined by the school’s athletic director.
5. 2310.5 (Sunday Contact): A coach may have contact with his or her team on Sunday for a social,
academic or service related activity that is strictly voluntary. The contact must be a voluntary, noncompetitive/non-participatory activity. CONTACT YOUR AD FOR CLARIFICATION.
If you have any questions with these bylaws, please contact your athletic director. Please keep in mind that you
are our best public relations directors. Your role as coach and leader are respected not only by your peers, but by
your students and community members as well. Our collective goal is to educate through activities; when the
experiences for our youth are enjoyable and valuable, it enhances the overall educational process; and we can
influence the public in a very positive way.
I know your upcoming season will pass quickly and that your efforts and accomplishments will be memorable to
those involved. Good luck and have an enjoyable season!
Sincerely,
Bethany Brookens
Assistant Commissioner

THINK PINK!
DATE:
August 2016
TO:
Athletic Directors and Volleyball Coaches
FROM:
Bethany Brookens, CHSAA Assistant Commissioner
RE:
Breast Cancer Awareness
Thank you for all of your support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month this past year! This fall, during the
volleyball season and in conjunction with the American Cancer Society, the CHSAA will once again be
promoting breast cancer awareness throughout the month of October. This coincides with National Breast
Cancer Awareness month. The purpose of the campaign is to raise breast cancer awareness in young women
and their mothers.
We are encouraging schools to “think pink” and come up with a way to promote Breast Cancer Awareness at
a home volleyball match during October. This is not mandatory.
**Please note that it’s important not to use the words “XXX for THE CURE” in any of your literature unless
you are planning on giving your donations to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. “The CURE” is a
trademarked name that cannot be duplicated.
All over the country volleyball teams are holding events to support breast cancer awareness, and we would
encourage you to promote this as much as you can! Some suggestions are:
“Think Pink” PSA’s and other information may be found on our website. If you have questions, please call
me at 303-344-5050 or email bbrookens@chsaa.org. Please do not send any money to this office – each
school may distribute funds as they desire.
*Please note the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure will be held on Sunday, September 25, 2016. You could
encourage your athletes and their moms to participate in this event to kick off the week.
**Wilson Sporting Goods, the official sporting goods equipment sponsor of the CHSAA and The Breast Cancer
Research Foundation, has the following Pink Volleyballs available for school purchase:
- WTH7700PNK: I-Cor High Performance Pink – Game Volleyball for $45.95 per ball
- WTH3501XPNK: Recreational Soft Touch pink volleyballs available for $10 per ball.
- WTH6-11XPNK: Mini pink balls for fan appreciation gifts at $8.00 per ball.
Wilson makes annual donations to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, and 100% of their
donations go to breast cancer research.

The CHSAA Constitution and Bylaws are the official rules of the Association. Information in this
bulletin provides the regulations for volleyball competition, but never supersedes the regulations
found in the Constitution and Bylaws.
Included in the school boxes is an official copy of the CHSAA Handbook Constitution and Bylaws.
Handbooks are also available on line at www.CHSAANow.com by selecting Bylaws. Checking
eligibility is not the sole responsibility of the athletic director. It is the responsibility of the coach to
know the information found in the Constitution and Bylaws. Therefore, the Bylaws should be read
prior to the season.
We encourage the telephone calls on areas of eligibility be made by the school athletic director or
designated administrator; rulings on season policies can be made by the volleyball coach. Please
contact Bethany Brookens, Assistant Commissioner for volleyball

NATIONAL FEDERATION OF STATE
HIGH SCHOOL ASSOCIATIONS
NEWS RELEASE
New Lineup Procedures Approved in High School Volleyball
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Becky Oakes
INDIANAPOLIS, IN (August 22, 2016) — The process for submitting lineups in high
school volleyball has been revised for the 2016-17 season.
In addition to the revision in Rule 7-1-4 regarding lineup procedures, the National
Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) Volleyball Rules Committee recommended
eight other rules changes at its January 4-6 meeting in Indianapolis. All rules changes were
subsequently approved by the NFHS Board of Directors.
Following each set, coaches will be required to submit a numeric lineup to the scorer
before one minute remains in the timed interval – or intermission when used. Rule 7-1-4 now
states that if a player’s number is duplicated in more than one starting position (including the
libero), the clerical error shall be corrected by either changing the libero’s number to another
legal number or by substituting a player into that starting position with a legal number.
“The committee wanted to provide greater clarity in the wording and organization of
Rule 7-1-4,” said Becky Oakes, NFHS director of sports and liaison to the Volleyball Rules
Committee. “In addition to correcting clerical errors as addressed within the rule, the libero is
now included as a possible option when a player’s number is listed twice.”
An emphasis on rule clarity was also applied to Rule 11-2 Penalty 2, which the
committee altered to offer consistency in the application of unnecessary delay penalties. Oakes
said if a team has used its allotted number of time-outs and requests a third time-out, “the
resulting penalty would be an unnecessary delay and no longer carry the automatic loss of rally
point for the opponent.”
The penalty of unnecessary delay for the request of a third or subsequent time-out can
be applied regardless of whether the second referee acknowledged it with a whistle and timeout signal.
Another change approved by the committee includes “a new procedure in protocol” used
by the first referee to begin the prematch conference, as is covered by Rule 5-4-1h. When the
referee sounds a double whistle and raises a coin in the air, each team’s head coach and
captain(s) are expected to meet at the official’s table.
11
“The committee believes this will eliminate the need to track down those individuals
who are required to participate in the prematch conference,” Oakes said. “It will assist the
officials in consistently and efficiently getting the conference started and beginning the match.”
The committee also revised Rule 11-5-1, which clarifies that if a team is going to use an
intermission between sets two and three, it can only be used for promotional or special
recognition activities and not solely as an extended time interval.
A complete listing of all rules changes will be available soon on the NFHS website at
www.nfhs.org. Click on “Activities & Sports” at the top of the home page, and select
“Volleyball.”
According to the 2014-15 NFHS High School Athletics Participation Survey, volleyball is
the second-most popular sport for girls with 432,176 participants. A total of 15,619 schools
offered girls volleyball in 2014-15 and 2,287 schools offered boys volleyball.
This press release was written by Cody Porter, graphic
arts/communications assistant in the NFHS Publications/Communications
Department.

PLAYER BENCH OCCUPANTS
Teams will always be seated on the same side of the net as they play.
During the contests, the player bench may be occupied only by the following: eligible substitutes, coach,
assistant coaches, faculty representatives, team managers, team statisticians and scorekeeper, team trainer
or doctor, and disqualified players, unless they have been instructed to remove themselves from the player
bench.
WARM-UP
There will be a maximum 15 minute warm-up period between matches unless the scheduled start time
dictates otherwise. The 15 minutes will begin as soon as the court is cleared from the preceding match. It
is the responsibility of the home site’s administrator to oversee warm-up time.
The following format is highly recommended:
•
•
•
5 minutes – Both teams on their side of the court.
5 minutes – Visiting team both sides of the court (including serving).
5 minutes – Home team both sides of the court.
PENALTY FOR LEAVING THE PLAYING FLOOR BEFORE MATCH IS COMPLETED
Withdrawing a team from the playing floor before the completion of a contest can have great
consequences. The CHSAA Constitution and Bylaws state: “No member school may withdraw its team from
an athletic contest prior to the termination of the contest, except by mutual consent of the responsible
faculty representatives from the participating schools.”
DISQUALIFICATION FOR UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT
Any player who has been ejected from a match or tournament for committing any unsportsmanlike act
shall be disqualified for the remainder of that match or contest. In addition, the player shall be ineligible
for the next regularly scheduled match or contest of the same level (sophomore, junior varsity, or varsity).
She may not take part in any other sets or contests at any level during this time. The number of matches,
meets or contests for which the participant has been declared ineligible will decrease the stated maximum
allowable matches, meets or contests in each sport for the disqualified participant. A school may not
schedule a contest after an ejection in order to circumvent the penalty.
If such ejection occurs in the final match or contest of the season, then that player shall be ineligible for the
first match or contest of the next season of sport that player elects to play. In satisfying the penalty, the
player must sit out a set in a sport in which she completes the season.
Any player ejected from a second match or contest during the same season shall be ineligible for the next
two matches or contests of the same level. Any player ejected from a third match or contest during the
same season shall be subject to a penalty to be determined by the Commissioner.
VOLLEYBALL UNIFORMS
Please be sure to check the uniform regulations found in the NFHS Volleyball Rules Book. It is highly
recommended that you give the manufacturer a copy of the rules book when you order new uniforms. DO
NOT HAVE YOUR UNIFORM MANUFACTURER CALL THE CHSAA OFFICE WITH QUESTIONS. WE WILL NOT
BE LIABLE FOR ILLEGAL UNIFORMS. Although like uniforms are preferred at all levels, varsity is the only
level that will be penalized for uniform violations.
13
SCORING FOR SUB-VARSITY MATCHES
It is strongly recommended that 2 out of 3 sets be played at all sub-varsity levels to enhance time
management constraints. Further recommendations to shorten nights include:
1. Go to fewer points such as 15 or 21 (can have a cap such as 15 points or 21) Therefore, teams
could win 15-14 or 21-20; you don’t have to win by 2 points if there is a cap.
2. Monitor warm-up time between matches.
3. Flip coins before the first sub-varsity match for all matches that will be played that evening/day.
4. Use of multiple nets and/or gymnasiums where available.
* Play is recommended for Saturdays to decrease the amount of school missed and alleviate travel time.
* If a team from a league that has adopted a certain format plays a team from a league that has adopted a
different format the two coaches must agree before the match begins. Otherwise it will be 3 out of 5 sets to
25 points (no cap) with the deciding set to 15 points (no cap).

The Volleyball Officials’ Organization is a group of people who find satisfaction in associating with high school
students and the sport of volleyball.
The ability of the schools to make the work pleasant enough to continue to command the interest of people
with good personalities, sincere intentions, and good judgment is a very important factor in the
administration of school athletic programs.
With this thought in mind, we would like to bring the following items to your attention:
Registered Officials: Only officials who are registered with the Commissioner may be contracted by member
schools to officiate in all varsity and junior varsity interscholastic contests. It is highly recommended that only
registered officials be used in any interscholastic contest at the sub-junior varsity levels.
Contracts for Contests: Contracts for matches should be in writing to avoid any misunderstandings as to terms
or dates. If possible, send a reminder to the official about the date, time, and location of the contest.
Greet Officials: Have someone available to greet the officials at your school and to direct them to their
dressing room. Make checks out in advance and have them available at the conclusion of the varsity match.
Rooms for Referees: Please provide a private room(s) for the officials as a dressing room and a room to
conduct their pre-match conference. All visitors should be kept away.
Officials Fees & Mileage: Please use the current version of the Officials’ Fees Report in the CHSAA
Legislative Council Minutes for current payment and mileage information.

**In the case of a tie, the Tournament Director must call the CHSAA Volleyball Administrator to verify. All involved
teams must sign off verifying they are in agreement that the tie was broken accurately using the following method.
1. Match record determines the seed for advancement (i.e. match record 3-0, 2-1, 1-2).
2. Always use head-to-head whenever two teams are tied.
3. When three teams are tied for the #1 seed or if there is a three way tie for two qualifying spots, (if only one qualifying
spot is available go straight to criteria #4), apply the following tie-breaker in order (a, b, c, d) and determine the highest
of the three teams. THERE MUST BE ONE ONE-SET PLAYOFF. SEE BELOW
a. Eliminate non-tied teams. Determine the set percentage among TIED teams. (sets won ÷ total sets played among
tied teams)
1. Take the highest set percentage team as the #1 seed. If two teams have the same percentage, use head-tohead to break the tie.
2. The two remaining tied teams will then play one set to 25 points to determine the #2 seed. (no cap)
b. If three teams are still tied for the #1 seed, eliminate non-tied teams, use point differential among TIED teams
(total points earned minus total points against).
1. Take the highest point differential as the #1 seed. If two teams have the same point differential, use head-tohead to break the tie.
2. The two remaining tied teams will then play one set to 25 points to determine the #2 seed. (no cap)
c. If three teams are still tied for the #1 seed, re-instate non-tied teams, use set percentage among ALL teams. (Sets
won ÷ total sets played)
1. Take the highest set percentage team as the #1 seed. If two teams have the same percentage, use head-tohead to break the tie.
2. the two remaining tied teams will then play one set to 25 points to determine the #2 seed. (no cap)
d. If three teams are still tied for the #1 seed, re-instate non-tied teams, use point differential among ALL teams
(total points earned minus total points against).
1. Take the highest point differential team as the #1 seed. If two teams have the same point differential, use
head-to-head to break the tie.
2. The two remaining tied teams will then play one set to 25 points to determine the #2 seed. (no cap)
4. For a 3-way tie for the #1 or #3 seed or if there is a three way tie for only one qualifying spot, determine set percentage
among TIED teams (eliminate non-tied teams). The two lowest set percentage teams will play one set to 25 points (no
cap). The winner will then immediately play the highest set percentage team to determine the #2 seed. If two teams
are tied with the highest set percentage, use head-to-head to break the tie. THERE MUST BE TWO ONE-SET PLAYOFFS.
a. If tie isn't broken, then same procedure will be followed taking point differential among TIED tams (eliminate nontied teams).
b. If tie isn't broken, then same procedure will be followed taking the set percentage among ALL teams.
c. If tie isn't broken, then same procedure will be followed taking point differential among ALL teams.
