Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In a service, the ball may ___________ ?

Answer: touch the net

Rules 15.2.1 and 17.9.3.1 The ball can touch the net if it passes over it whilst in bounds and lands in the play area. Another new rule is that you're no longer allowed a 'practice toss'.
2. The captain or coach is required for substitutions when ___________ ?

Answer: he or she is no longer needed

Rule 20.3.1 If an incoming substitution player enters the substitution zone, action is considered a request for substitution.
3. In high school volleyball, the old order of sets within a match was four non-rally-point (NRP) sets followed by one rally-point (RP) set if the NRP sets ended in a 2-2 tie. What is the new order?

Answer: all RP

This was initiated to make the game faster paced and more exciting. The fifth match (if there is one) is scored to 15 rather than 25 points.
4. Teams are now allowed to register in their line-ups one specialized defense player. This player is called what?

Answer: libero

Rule 4.1.2 Unlimited substitutions, but the libero must always play in 1 of positions 1, 5, or 6, cannot attack, and cannot serve or block.
5. In the old rules, a team was allowed to hit the ball three times on their side before sending it over and back to the other team. Under the new rules, how many times is a team allowed to hit the ball?

Answer: That rule didn't change

There was no change to this rule in 2000.
