Service Question
I had the following situation brought up to me and I have heard different interpretations as to how to handle it.
NFHS Rules - In both cases, the server has not been granted a re-serve.
S1 is serving. After the whistle she bounces the ball three times, then serves. All within the 5 second window.
The next time she is serving, she does the same thing, but on the third bounce, the ball bounces away from her. What's the ruling? Is it a 5 second violation, or does the R1 grant a re-serve? I have heard from two different trainers two different answers.
The only thing close I can find in the casebook (from 2016-2017), but I think the same situation is in the book is 8-1-6 Situation B (e). The player tosses the ball for serve, but does not swing and the ball hits her knee - ruling re-serve.
