I just wanted to make a last minute appeal. I am the head women's
volleyball coach at Trinity Bible College in North Dakota and I am in
need of some volleyball player for THIS coming fall season. So if any
of you-all out there are interested and you have graduated HS be it
last year or 15 years ago, (provided you can still play) I would love
to talk to you and see if you can be a part of our program. I realize
this is last minute this is last minute in nature, but there may be
that someone looking to play on this level. (Which by the way is not
DI or DII, more like DIII, we compete in the NCCAA DII level). Thanks
and God Bless

You can play sand volleyball at the Atrium in Mountain
Home from late spring to early fall.  I'd be
interested to know about other places to play as well.

Hi, I recently moved with my parents to Mena, Arkansas from the San
Joaquin Valley in California.  We had some grass leagues and a place
to play sand volleyball.  Nothing as big as the California beaches,
but something.  Here in Mena, there isn't much, but I am moving soon
(growing up, moving out of the house!) probably to Little Rock.  Are
there organizations or leagues or places to play sand or grass
volleyball in Arkansas, preferably in Little Rock?  As Little Rock is
pretty much in the center of the state, I figure I can drive to
anywhere from there to play.  I'm looking for anything to get my fix
on the outdoor volleyball game.  As we said in California, Gracias!

INDIANAPOLIS, IN (January 28, 2005) — Use of the libero player in high
school volleyball, effective with the 2006-07 season, was approved by the
National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) Volleyball
Rules Committee January 9-10 at its annual meeting in Indianapolis. All
volleyball rules changes were subsequently approved by the NFHS Board of
Directors.

The committee also approved use of the libero player for the 2005-06 season
by state association adoption. A state association may permit use of the
libero next season; however, all stipulations approved by the committee for
use of the libero in 2006-07 will apply for those states electing to use the
libero next season.

Specific stipulations approved by the committee for using the libero
include:

• The libero must be designated on the lineup sheet prior to each game.
• The libero must enter the game after the starting lineup has been checked.
• A team may exercise one replacement per dead ball.
• The libero must enter and exit the game between the attack line and the
baseline.
• The libero may be the team captain.
• The libero may be used as an exceptional substitution for an injured
player if no other legal substitutions are available.
• The libero shall not replace a disqualified teammate.
• The libero shall not block or attempt to block.
• The libero shall not serve.
• The libero shall not set the ball using an overhand finger pass while in
front of the attack line extended for an attack above the height of the net.

While the libero player has been approved for high school volleyball, use of
the defensive specialist will be an option for an individual team’s coaching
staff. Since the use of the libero player is a coaching strategy, its use in
a particular game is optional.

The libero is a back-row player and is not allowed to complete an attack
from anywhere if the ball, at the moment of contact, is entirely above the
height of the net. The libero wears a uniform in contrast to other members
of the team, and is intended to be a player who specializes in defense and
serve reception. The libero may replace a back-row player, except the person
serving, without taking away from the team’s allowed number of
substitutions. Only one libero may be designated per game.

The libero player has been used at the international, collegiate and club
levels for a number of years, and, this past year, 10 states experimented
with its use at the high school level. Acting on positive feedback from
these 10 state associations, the Volleyball Rules Committee agreed to
approve its use across the board.

“The libero is used at all levels of volleyball,” said Cynthia Doyle,
assistant director of the NFHS and liaison to the Volleyball Rules
Committee. “It has improved the caliber of play, and it allows for greater
on-court involvement by the team’s best defensive player.”

The committee approved two additional rules changes – one regarding the
umpire’s responsibilities with the lineup card and another clarifying the
limitations of a back-row player.
Rule 5-4-3b (16) was revised to delete the requirement of the umpire to
record illegal player equipment, uniform warnings, penalties and
disqualifications for unsportsmanlike conduct on the lineup card.

“Although the umpire is required to use a lineup card to check the lineup,
the umpire is no longer required to record illegal equipment or
unsportsmanlike conduct violations on the card,” Doyle said. “The umpire is
required to report illegal equipment and unsportsmanlike conduct violations
to the scorer, who records these violations in the official scorebook. The
committee determined it was unnecessary to record this information on the
lineup card.”

Regarding a back-row player, Rule 9-5-4 was revised to state that if the
ball is hit back into a back-row player whose hands are below the height of
the net, it is ruled as the team’s first hit/contact.

In addition, hand signal No. 2 in the Official Volleyball Signals was
changed from an open hand to pointing a finger at the line.

Another rule that was passed by the committee last year takes effect this
coming volleyball season. Beginning with the 2005-06 season, the standard
official’s uniform for high school volleyball will include an all-white,
short-sleeved collared polo shirt, instead of an alternating black-and-white
vertically striped, knit shirt. Other requirements for the officials uniform
remain the same: black slacks and solid black athletic shoes and black
socks.

Volleyball is the third-most popular sport for girls at the high school
level, with 396,322 participants, according to the 2003-04 NFHS High School
Athletics Participation Survey. It also ranks third in school sponsorship
for girls with 14,181 high schools offering the sport. In addition, a total
of 40,093 boys participated in volleyball in 2003-04 at 1,683 schools.
