Assuming (once again) that Rotation 6 leaves players illegally aligned (trust me, there are times teams can line up in multiple rotations legally with pretty much the same player layout), that leaves us with A as the option here. Especially if Team the serving team can correctly point out they shouldn't lose the rally if the receiving team was not lined up legally. This also assumes the receiving team did NOT win the rally because of an illegal service of some variety.

Just my thoughts.
Exactly what we did yesterday. I was going to email the coach, but then I thought he might pick-up on / question the "opposing team" language -- I think it's just "normal english" to be applied to the specific case play, not a rules prescription.

Thanks,.
