Rules & format

Four male-identifying and two female-identifying players must be on the court at all times.

You can briefly play five males during a half rotation — this covers the window when your female-identifying libero is subbed out for a serving male-identifying player.

  • Every team is assigned working-match duties at some point during the tournament.
  • Players must be 18 or older by the day of the tournament.
  • A team's spot is locked in once every rostered player has confirmed and paid their registration fee.
  • Jerseys aren't required, but liberos should wear a shirt that contrasts with the rest of the team.
  • Each player signs up and pays their own registration — captains don't cover teammates.
  • Only standard legal substitutions are permitted (no full-time liberos, middles, or similar).
