EQUIPMENT The net height is 7’ 4 1/8” for women. The ball circumference is 25.5” to 27” and the weight is 9 to 10 ounces. The indoor court is 18 m x 9m. RULES Volleyball matches are made up of games played best three out of five to 30. The deciding game or game 5, if necessary, is only played to 15. Teams will switch sides when both teams have a total score of 8 points combined. The rally scoring system allows a point to be scored on any ball that hits the ground, regardless of which team is serving. Scores can occur from kills or errors. •
Each team can have six players on the floor at a time.
•
Teams must stay in the same positions that they started the game in.
•
Each team can have 12 substitutions per game. After that, no more subs may enter the game.
•
A player entering for another must continue to go in and out for that player for the duration of the game, unless they are the libero.
•
Each side is allowed three touches on the ball. The ball must go back over the net on the third hit, usually pass, set, attack. To hit the ball more that three times on a side is illegal, and the opposing team is awarded the point.
•
There cannot be double contact on the ball. The ball must hit clean and be passed clean. A double hit is also illegal, and the opposing team is awarded the point. The official signals a double hit by holding up two fingers.
POSITIONS: Middle Blocker: reads the opponent’s setter and blocks the ball Outside Hitter: an all-around player: hitting and blocking Libero: strictly a defensive player, a great passer and an even better digger, wears different color jersey than teammates. Setter: an offensive player decides who gets the ball and when Opposite: responsible for blocking the opponent’s outside hitter

COUGAR REDLANDS MASCOT The story of the Redlands Cougar is shrouded in mystery. The Cougar first appeared as the official Redlands mascot post-1970. Prior to that Redland’s (originally called El Reno Junior College) mascot was the Chieftain, which was chosen to correspond with El Reno High School’s mascot, the Indian. Now, this elusive nameless cat can occasionally be spotted around campus. Be On The Lookout!
