IMPORTANT REMINDERS
1. Athletes and Coaches enter facilities no earlier than 30min prior to their wave.
2. Spectators enter facilities no earlier than 10min prior to their athlete’s competition.
* With more matches being played, they likelihood of waves exceeding their scheduled times increases, therefore it is extraordinarily important that athletes, coaches, and spectators adhere to the stated entry times.
OTHER REMINDERS / NOTES
1. Warm ups! Just like the previous 4 weeks, once your team has implemented a 4 minute warm up, you receive no addition 4 minute warm up in subsequent matches.
2. 6 Team Divisions have an officiating team for all matches, just like the previous 4 weeks.
3. 4 or 8 team Divisions will officiate their own with one coach blowing a whistle to initiate serve and end play. When officiating their own coaches are required call their own infractions based on reminder #4 below.
4. Officiating is still relaxed!!!! Call the net if it is TERRIBLE or dangerous. Call ball handling if it is terrible. THAT IS IT.

2021 NSVU Fall League Rules and Information
Specific Reminders from the League:
1. Spectators may enter 10 minutes prior to competition! This is due to the need for keeping numbers down in each facility and to allow for greater social distancing with less potential exposure to COVID.
2. Spectators are reminded to exit the facility when their team is officiating… same rationale as above.
3. Warm ups prior to match one are 2-4-4, prior to match two are 2-4, and prior to match 3 just 2. Again to ensure timely completion of waves and allow for facilities to clear once your team has implemented a 4min warm up prior to their 1st match they do not need to utilize that 4min again.
4. Officiating is relaxed!!!! This league promotes play. At no time is it acceptable to yell at an official.
5. Most teams will participate in 3 team pools, in which the schedule will be one of the following:
Team A vs. Team C (Team B Officiates)
Team B vs. Team C (Team A Officiates)
Team A vs. Team B (Team C Officiates)
Follow the MSHSL rules: No Chemical Violations - tobacco, e-cigs, alcohol or drugs.
Social Media - keep as private as possible, we all need positive team attitudes! (No phones at practice or on the benches, always sit with teammates).
Communication process (if you have concerns)
Parents, if you have a concern or question about your child, team or coaching, please discuss the issue at great length with your child to get all the information possible.
Player expectation
