League Organization, Rules and Guidelines
The complete list of rules and guidelines can be found in this document. Here are some excerpts from that document:- Each doubles match will consist of 2 (25) point games. Triples coed will play 3 (21) point games. All matches have to be finished at 55 minutes past the hour. This will allow a 5-minute warm up period. If more time is need for warm-ups do it prior to your match.
- Short (AVP doubles size) courts will be used as well as all AVP beach volleyball rules. For doubles only, the block does count as a team contact but either player can contact the ball after the block (There are only 2 more contacts after the block).
- Coed Doubles will be played on a men’s height net. Men must serve men, if the ball is served to woman’s side, one reserve will be allowed. If the second serve goes to the woman’s side, the point will be lost and service will change sides.
