First referee
Second referee
Scorekeeper
Assistant scorer
Line judges.
is in charge from the beginning of the match until the
end.
first referee has authority over all other members of the
officiating crew.
The first referee should talk to all the officiating crew
members before the match starts, going over any
questions officials might have about their responsibilities.
The first referee should have a talk with the second
referee before the match
SECOND REFEREE
establishes a rapport with the scorekeeper and libero

tracker.
If the scorer and libero tracker have a problem or don't
understand something, they should be comfortable
enough to ask the second referee for help.
The scorekeeper's main job is to make sure the score is
correct at all times.
The scorekeeper uses a score sheet to keep track of the
game.
If there is a difference between the score on the score
sheet and the visual score (flip score, electronic
scoreboard, etc.) the visual score should be changed to
match the score on the scoresheet unless the mistake on
the scoresheet can be determined and corrected.
The assistant scorer (or libero tracker) sits at the
scorer's table next to the scorekeeper.
The assistant scorer's main function is to record
libero replacements onto a libero tracking sheet.
Also notifies any fault with libero replacements
Operates the manual scoreboard on the scorer's
table
Checks the score on the scoreboard with the score
on the scoresheet
If only two lines judges are used, they stand at the
corner of the endline that is closest to the right hand of
each referee, diagonally from the corner.
The line judges watch the endline and sideline of their
respective corners.
For FIVB and Official Competitions, four lines judges are
used.
The line judge's main responsibility is to make signals to
help out the referees in making judgment calls.
Line judges may be instructed to use flags to make the
signals (ball "in" and "out")

TITLE
positions
Defensive Specialists
HERE
Setter Serving Specialist
An outside hitter hits and blocks from the left side of the
court.
They also carry the responsibilities of passing and playing
defense when they get to the back row.
The outside typically gets the most sets, especially when
the setter is out of the system since the outside set is one
of the easier options to set.
An outside’s responsibilities include hitting from the front
and back row, passing in serve to receive, playing left or
middle-back defense, and blocking.
Opposite hitters earned that title because they are
opposite to the strong (left) side hitter, meaning they
hit behind the setter.
In a 6-1, just like an outside hitter, an opponent has the
option to play all the way around, passing, playing
defense, and hitting out of the back row.
An opposite’s responsibilities include swinging from the
front and back row, playing right-back defense, and
blocking the other teams outside hitter.
A setter’s primary responsibility is to take the second ball and
set it up for one of the hitters to attack.
Often referred to as the quarterback, the setter is the
decision maker of the team and is in charge of leading the
offense.
In a 6-1, the setter plays all the way around, meaning that he
or she has defensive responsibilities, as well as blocking
duties when in the front row.
A setter’s responsibilities include setting the ball on the
second contact to the hitters on the court, directing the
offense, playing right-back defense, and blocking the other
teams outside hitter.
Liberos wear a jersey of a different color and play in the back
row five out of the six rotations, usually subbing in for both
middle blockers.
When the libero comes in for another player, it does not
count as a substitution.
Liberos are defensive and serve-receive specialists who are
typically fast and can change direction quickly.
Liberos are not permitted to attack the ball from above the
height of the net, and they can only overhand set a front-row
attacker from behind the 10-foot line.
Defensive Specialists (aka DS)
Much like a libero, a defensive specialist plays in

the back row and is responsible for playing defense
and receiving serve.
Unlike the libero, they do not wear different
colored jerseys and are required to abide by the
normal substitution rules, meaning they are only in
for three out of the six rotations.
Serving Specialist (aka SS)
A serving specialist is a player who subs in just to

serve.
These players typically have a very tough or very
consistent service, and they come in for a player
who is less strong behind the service line, but
otherwise very valuable to have on the court as an
offensive or defensive threat.
Who among the official should perform the
toss with the team captains?
The official that should perform the toss is the referee because
before the game begins it's his/her duty to perform it to know whose
team is the service and who is the receiver by using a coin.
Who rechecks the positions of the players on the court

at the start of each set and during the game?
At the start of each set, and during the game, at the change of courts
in the deciding set, and whenever necessary, the 2nd referee checks
that the actual positions of the players on the court correspond to
those on the line-up sheets.
Who among the players is authorized to speak to the
referees?
only the game captain is authorized to speak to the referees to
request explanations. The coach is not authorized to do so.
Who authorizes substitution?
The second referee always authorizes a substitution in

volleyball; this is the referee standing by the scorer's table
(FIVB 15.10. 3c). If a second referee is not present for your
match, the first referee will recognize the substitution, and the
scorer's table will authorize it on the scoresheet
the right-hand side of each referee?
The line judges stand at the corners of the court, watching the lines
to indicate whether a ball in play falls in or out of the court.
If the server steps on the line during a serve, the line judge watching
the given line notifies the referees and two line judges in volleyball.
Who is the member of the team who should sit on the
team’s bench near the scorer?
If seated, the coach is required to sit on the bench nearest the
scorekeeper. The coach may stand or walk within a free zone in front
of the team bench without disrupting the match. Assistant coaches
may instruct players while seated on the bench.
If the decision of the other official is not consistent,
whose decision should prevail?
During the match, the first referee’s decisions are final. The
first referee has the authority to overrule decisions of the
officiating crew when it is noticed that they are mistaken.
The first referee may replace a member of the officiating crew
who isn't performing their duties appropriately.
The first referee has the power to make decisions on any
matters that involve the game including those not provided in
the rules.
Who records the points scored during the game?
The official scorer keeps track of the score throughout the volleyball
game and they also note down all the players' names. Similar to
tennis, an official game needs two to four lines of judges governing
each game.
The scorer performs his/her functions seated at the scorer's table on
the opposite side of the court facing the first referee.
Responsibilities: He/she keeps the score sheet according to the Rules,
cooperating with the second referee.
Personal reaction - on your own words, If you are assigned as a
team captain, what should be your responsibilities as a leader of
the team?
If I am assigned as a team captain my responsibility is to keep

my team motivated and organized before and during the game.
Being a team captain doesn't mean that I can do all the roles in
playing inside the volleyball court, it also needs unity and
helping each other to win. It is also important as a team leader
to build friendship and sportsmanship on my team.
THANK YOU!
