To have a nice tournament for everyone there are some rules to obey.

• The committee will deny participants who are under 18 access to the tournament.
• Listen to the organisation members. You can recognize them by the colourful t-shirts or hoodies. If you do not find an organisation member, feel free to go up to one of our volunteers in the yellow t-shirts, who are always ready to help out! You can also go to them with questions.
• Please clean up if you make a mess and keep the sports halls tidy.
• Bringing your own alcohol is NOT allowed and we have a zero tolerance drugs policy.
• ABSOLUTELY NO SMOKING INSIDE OR ON CAMPUS!
• We are not responsible for loss and damage to your belongings.
• Last but not least, be kind to each other, and together we will make it a MEMORABLE tournament.

We want to make this weekend as enjoyable as possible for everyone who participates. That’s why it is important that we set some ground rules.

• Each team must have at least 5 people in the field, including at least 3 ladies at all times.
• Except for the final, all matches are based on time.
• The rally point system will be used in all matches of the tournament. A serve that touches (the top of) the net is correct.
• The away team has the first service.
• Beginning and ending of the match is announced centrally.
• When you hear the sign to end the set, you can finish the rally you are playing at that moment. Afterwards, the match is finished.
• In case of a tie during the finals, you will play until there is a difference of 2 points or a team reaches 30 points (or 20 in the third set).
• Each match starts with a 0-0 score and does not end at 25 points because the match will be played on time.
• If a team is more than 5 minutes late for a match, that team loses the match by 25-0.
• 1 time-out is allowed per match per team, during the final 2 time-outs are allowed per set per team.
• The final consists of normal sets up to 25 points (with the Rally Point System and a 2-point difference) and best of three sets. In the third set, 15 points must be scored.
• With the exception of the rules above, standard FIVB rules apply.
• Decisions of the referees and the committee cannot be contested. The referee will not allow rude play.
• In case of doubt not captured by the rules above, the Committee makes a final decision.
• Every team receives a ball which must be given back at the end of the tournament. You are responsible to hold onto your own ball. When we do not receive your ball back at the end of the tournament, you will have to pay €60 as a compensation for the costs of our ball.

For those who sleep at Erasmus Sport, breakfast will be provided. We also provide a sleeping mat and a chair to lay out your stuff. Please note that you have to bring your own sleeping bag and pillow if you don’t want to be cold at night 😉. Also we kindly ask you to clean up your mess every morning, since you play where you sleep. During the tournament you can leave your stuff at the tribune. For those who don’t sleep at Campus, you must be in the Sports Center at 9:30 latest, since the matches start by then.
