• If you disagree with a referee’s call, you cannot overturn it but are welcome to file a complaint with S3. Everyone is human and can make a bad call every now and then. This happens even in pro sports. However, if it is determined to be an ongoing issue, we will need to address it with the referee.

• 8 Balls per court. 4 balls will be lined up at the center court line on both sides of the court at the beginning of each game. when the whistle sounds each team will send 2 players(runners) to grab the balls on the right side of their court only. balls must be brought back to the starting line before being thrown. All players must remain at the rear boundary line until the runners get all 4 balls to the starting line.
• the outside lines of the court and the half court line will be considered the boundaries. If a player steps on or goes beyond the boundary, they are out.
• A player is considered out if a ball contacts any part of their body, hair, or clothing from a throw without hitting the ground, wall, net, or another player.
• A player is safe from being out if the ball bounces off of the player and another teammate catches it before it makes contact with the ground. The thrower is not out.
• A player may block balls thrown at them with another ball. If the ball deflects from a ball but makes contact with the body, hair or clothing of the blocking player, that player is out. If the ball is deflected without contacting the blocker's body, hair or clothing, the player is not out.
• A player throwing the ball is out if the target catches the ball or the ball bounces off of a player and the same player catches the ball before it hits the ground. If the ball thrown hits the netting first then someone catches the ball the thrower is not out. If the target gets hit and the ball bounces up into the netting and it is caught the target is not out.
• NO SQUISHING or FLATTENING OF THE BALLS! Any player caught doing this is automatically out as well as the player to their immediate right. The first time is a warning and you will sit for the rest of the match. The 2nd offense will be a suspension from the league until a fine of $35 is paid to replace the ball. This is for the safety of all players and prevent the balls from being ruined.
