JV matches in MA

We use a similar format for our high school JV matches. Always play 3 sets, coin toss if necessary, set to 15, no changing of sides at mid-point. If the third set is a deciding set, the home team gets the call at the coin toss with choice of side, serve, or receive. We are in Berks County, Pennsylvania

Our Middle School volleyball does similar - except that there is only a coin toss if the 3rd game determines the outcome.

They also have a 45 min. play rule which means if the 3rd game ends before 45 minutes of total play time has expired, we go to a 4th game as well.

Extra pay?

Here in NYS, which generally goes by NCAA , our 6th/7th/8th grade level is called 'modiifed', and used to be just a straight 3 sets, no decider or anything.

Last year, to save on traveling, they went locally to a different format of having each two teams play each other only once, and then have that be a double 3 set match. Again, no deciders, and we get a touch under a double match fee.

I can see refs slowing the pace down at 42 minutes. Official time out! I think the score is wrong.
