Maximum of 5 service wins in a row per server • After 5, service switches to other team without
point
McLean Youth Volleyball 10
Special Scoring Rules
Three games to 25 points (NOT best of 3). • If time runs out, winner of 3rd game is team with
most points
Extra point awarded for three touches that result in an immediate point:• Discretion of the referee
• First 2 touches can be bumps or sets; last touch must be an overhead hit
• Extra point only awarded if opposing team does not legally return the ball
McLean Youth Volleyball 11
Continuous Substitution
McLean Youth Volleyball12
Promotes equal playing time
Players on count and bench are one continuous line-up

Safety Considerations
No water bottles allowed on playing floor – injury hazard
Remove any other potential hazards from the playing area
Encourage players to wear knee pads and court shoes (discourage running shoes)
Do not leave the gym area until all your players have been picked up
McLean Youth Volleyball 15
Volunteer Building Director
Each MYA Volleyball Coach and select Team Parents must certify as a Volunteer Building Director (VBD)
Required by Fairfax County Neighborhood and Community Services (NCS) for MYA to use school facilities.
Review materials on the NCS VBD website and take the short on-line test• 15-20 minutes to certify
• Retake test as often as needed
• Forward certification confirmation email to Chuck
McLean Youth Volleyball 16
Important Documents
Always carry copies of the following documents to practices and matches:• Team Roster with parent phone numbers
• Facility Use Permit
• Your VBD certification
NCS Inspectors DO visit gyms
McLean Youth Volleyball 17
Coaching Considerations Focus on fundamental ball control skills: serve,
pass, set, hit and *movement*
• Practices should reinforce these skills
• Use drills that encourage as many player “touches” as possible
• Simulate game play over the net
Explain to players/parents that the focus is on ball control using multiple touches, not winning as many points as possible through one touch “Ping-Pong”
Promote communications and cheering
Provide positive feedback
Defer to referees
