1. If a team is declared in default or incomplete, the scorer should complete the score sheet as stated in the rules (6.4).
2. If a rally has been interrupted due to an injury, external interference, or any other reason, it is considered as an incomplete rally. It is not allowed to request any regular game interruption, except a forced substitution for an injured or sanctioned player during the forced interruption.
3. Learning to use the official score sheet:
3.1. A slide show, located on the Volleyball Canada website, gives clear instructions on scorekeeping. (CLICK HERE)
3.2. In the Results box, the scorer will leave no blank boxes. If the set was lost, then the scorer will write “0”. If a set was won, then the scorer will write “1” in that box.
3.3. The first improper request for a game interruption made by each team is identified by the second referee and he/she will instruct the scorer to record the improper request in the improper request box on the score sheet. If the score sheet does not have the improper request box, then the scorer should write “Improper request, Team (A or B)” in the Remarks section of the score sheet.
3.4. VolleyballCanada: At the end of the match, the R1 will initial the Remarks section if information has been recorded in this section. R1’s initials are not required in the Sanctions section; it is recommended, however, that if an R1 expels or disqualifies a player or a coach, that he/she submit a separate report to his/her ROC regarding this expulsion/disqualification.
