Workshop Pack
VAI Introduction to SpikeBall Workshop Pack
Philosophy
The chief objective is:
To encourage more Children to participate in Volleyball
competition in an enjoyable way
Key issues that lead to enjoyment:
• More Rallies
• More touches of the ball
• Less pressure to win
• Fun competition
• Play more matches
• Attacking the ball
• No pain from ball
• Equal play for all
We believe that the result of changing the numbers in a team combined with the
adaptation of the rules will result in:
1. Volleyball becoming more attractive as a sport to those who are not
already playing
2. An improvement in the players’ skill level as a result of touching the ball
more often in a game-like way.
3. An improvement brought about by more rallies happening.
4. The serve becoming less dominant and allowing play to continue.
5. The players getting many more opportunities to hit the ball as part of
play.
VAI Introduction to SpikeBall Workshop Pack
General Rules and Guidelines
1. Physical Environment
i. The size of the court will be doubles Badminton court or nearest equivalent.
ii. The height of the net should be between 1.85m and 2.10 m depending on
age and sex.
iii. Court Markings can be made from masking tape for the rectangular outline if
no lines are available.
iv. The type of Ball used must be soft. We would recommend Mikasa V180 to
V230 range (Available from VAI office). No plastic or nylon wound or heavy
ball to be permitted
v. The net can be Badminton net, rope or Horse-tape (Available from VAI office)
vi. We recommend a minimum of 1.5 m to 2.m space between courts
2. Composition of Team
i. The number of players in a team should be ideally 6. There will be 4 on the
court and 2 substitutes. The minimum number on a team is 4.
ii. Substitutions are made as follows:
• If after every 3rd successful service by any one player on serving
team, the team still has the right to serve, then the serving team
rotates and the substitute comes on to serve
• When the receiving team wins back service the substitute comes on
to serve
• No other substitution is allowed except in the case of an injury
• Substitutions are made automatically without any signal required
from coach or referee.
iii. The competition can be single sex or mixed as makes sense locally.
3. Adapted rules
i. Compulsory 3 touch. A point is awarded to the opposite team if a team
fails to complete 3 touches on their side.
VAI Introduction to SpikeBall Workshop Pack
ii. The block is not counted as a touch.
iii. 1st touch can be a volley or a forearm pass (dig).
iv. 2nd touch must be a catch and throw. The ball is caught with two hands
and tossed underarm so the hitter may attack it. Once the catcher has
caught the ball then no further movement of the feet is allowed. The ball
is tossed from whatever way the catcher is facing when receiving the ball.
v. 3rd touch ideally should be a hit but can be volleyed or dug over.
vi. Ball cannot be played below the waist, or deliberately played with the
head.
vii. The Service can be either an underarm or over-arm serve from behind the
base line or an underarm two handed toss from not more than halfway
up the court.
viii. The Blitz can be based on timed sets or reaching a score. This will be
determined by what makes sense locally.
4. General Organisation
i. The local format will be that of a series of 3 Blitzes. The Blitzes should be
played at 2/3 different venues where possible.
ii. The number of schools/teams in each Blitz will be determined locally and
in accordance with the minimum play rule. (See rules 4 e and 4 f). It is
suggested that separate competitions would be held for 1st and 2nd
Years in Post Primary schools. Primary schools can make a decision
regarding whether a separate competition needs to be held for different
age groups.
iii. Each team to play a minimum of 3 Blitzes in a season.
iv. There must be a minimum guaranteed playing time each day.
v. Each team must play at least 3 matches per Blitz.
vi. A match must consist of a minimum of two 10 minute sets.
vii. Each team is allowed one 30 second timeout per set.
viii. The main objective is that children play and have fun. Local organisers
may present some small prizes to participants if they think it is suitable.
VAI Introduction to SpikeBall Workshop Pack
ix. It is recommended to get pupils involved in the refereeing, administration
and publicity side of the SpikeBall Blitzes.
x. Entries should be sent to the VAI office and the Schools committee will
divide entrants into local groups.
xi. For Regional and National Competition the VAI may alter the rules to
ensure uniformity.
The overwhelming rule that governs everything is that
Children take part and have FUN
