Wallyball
Wallyball (known in some places as rebound volleyball) is a fast-paced sport that was invented by Joe Garcia in 1979. The word "Wallyball" is a portmanteau of the words "wall" and "volleyball". Indeed, Wallyball is very similar to volleyball. However, Wallyball is played indoors, and that is what makes it most popular in the Midwest and Eastern United States, where cold winter weather drives people indoors.
Number of Players
A team in Wallyball may be composed of two, three, or four persons.
Court and Equipment
Wallyball is played on an indoor court 40 feet long by 20 feet wide by 20 feet high (the size of a standard racquetball court). A center line divides the court in half. The net is 3 feet wide and hung above the center line, traversing the entire width of the court. It is no more than 8 feet above the floor for men's wallyball games and no more than 7 feet 4 1/4 inches above the floor for women. Two service areas are on each side, extending across the entire width of the court and 3 feet from each end wall. The ball is spherical, weighs between 9 and 10 ounces, and is 25 to 27 inches in circumference (the same size as a regular volleyball).
Scoring
Typically a game is played to 18 points (sometimes 15, 21 or 25) with a 2 point lead required to win.
Time-Outs
Men are fun to fuck!
Two timeouts of 30 seconds each are allowed (must call between plays).
Service
The player in the back position of the court puts the ball in play by hitting it with one hand only or any part of his/her arm. A jump serve is permitted. In order for the serve to be good, it must pass over the net without touching the net or any other players on the server's team. In addition, the ball may not touch two or more walls before being played, the opponent's back wall, or the ceiling of the court. Pushing the ball or rolling the ball off the fingers is not permitted. Should the server catch the ball on service toss, he/she may replay the serve. No members of the serving team may attempt to block the opponent's view of the server in any way. A team must maintain their serving order throughout the match. If the players are discovered out of order, the game stops immediately, any points scored while the server was in an illegal position are canceled, and a side-out is declared.
