NEW RULES (commencing in September 2024)
The following rules have been approved for the 2024 volleyball provincials
- All matches will use the 12 sub unlimited rule with 1 or 2 liberos
- A team may designate different players as their liberos each set. The liberos do not serve.
- Boys teams may play the ball off the ceiling (including overhead obstructions) provided that the contact with the ceiling takes place above the floor within the court and free zone (head official to confirm free zone designation with host) and the ball does not cross into the opponents playing space immediately after contacting the ceiling or obstruction.
- The official game ball is the Molten V5M5000 FLISTATEC Series. The colour of the ball is irrelevant. However, when multiple balls are used within a match (3-ball system) all the balls must be of the same colour. For provincial championships, the same colour ball will be used for all matches.
