Volley Balloon Rules

Volley Balloon is a competitive sport at Holiday Retirement Communities. The Laurel Grove's team is called The Lucky Laurels. They practice twice a week and participate in monthly tournaments with other communities. Here are the rules for Volley Balloon (also known as Balloon Volleyball.) They are much like the rules for regular volley ball.

* All Players must remain seated in their chairs. If this is rule is broken, the offending team loses the serve. If the other team served, they get a point.

* Points are awarded to the serving side.

* On the serve, the balloon must go over the net (by the server) and not touch the net. If the balloon touches the net, it is considered a "net ball" and the server has a chance to serve again. The server has two tries to clear the net. If this is not accomplished in two tries, the other team gets the serve.

* The front row serves starting with the person sitting closest to the score board then moving down the row. As long as the server is scoring points he keeps serving until the other team gets the ball.

* The balloon is served by holding or tossing it with one hand and hitting it with the other.

* A team cannot hit the ball more than three times to get it over the net. If this happens, the other team gets the serve or the point.

* A player cannot hit the ball twice in a row. If this happens, the other team gets the serve or the point.

* Spiking is allowed in play but NOT on the serve.

* If the balloon hits the floor in-bounds, the serve or the point goes to the other side.

*If the balloon hits the floor out-of bounds, the serve or the point goes againts the side that last hit the balloon.
