14U - Specific rules
- "Fair Play" rules apply.
- All players listed on the scoresheet must start the first or second set
- Substitutions are not permitted in the first or second set:
- In the case of injury/illness or disqualification, an Exceptional Substitution may be made.
- The injured/ill player may not return to the same set but may return to play in subsequent sets
- Any line-up can be used at the start of the third set
- In the third set, 12 "limited" substitutions are permitted.
- 14U and younger competitions, receiving the serve with an overhand motion using the fingers (volley/setting) IS NOT PERMITTED, regardless of the quality of the contact
- Teams are strongly encouraged to use offensive systems that utilize multiple setters (not 5-1 systems). 5-1 systems do not train enough setters, and we need to ensure clubs and coaches address this gap in our system.
- Teams are not permitted to use Liberos
- maximum of 12 players can be on the score sheet, in uniform, and participate in any given match. Teams may have a maximum of 15 players on the roster, participate in warmup, and sit on the bench
