The line judge, when they see a handling call, should run toward the center of the court to give a informal signal, since the R1 may not see them from their normal position.

Maybe this information is where the evaluator was coming from???


NCAA/USAV rules comparison:

1. First/Second referee duties



NCAA

�. First referee controls player conduct during the pre-match warm-ups. Second referee times the warm-ups.

�. Either referee should call net faults; first referee hesitates briefly to avoid double whistles on net faults.

�. Second referee calls (whistles) antenna faults on either antenna

�. Referees do not check scoresheet for accuracy after the match is completed.



USAV

�. First referee controls player conduct during the pre-match warm-ups. First referee also times the warm-ups.

�. First referee has primary responsibility for net faults on the upper part of the net, but can whistle any net fault. Second referee can whistle any net fault.

�. Second referee calls (whistles) antenna faults on his/her side of the court.

�. Referees review the scoresheet for accuracy at the end of the match, and the first referee signs the scoresheet.

The evaluator is primarily a coach but is a registered NFHS official. I really doubt that she has ever officiated a USAV or NCAA match.

Each district in Pa has a person in charge of finding evalators for district championship and inter-district matches. Many districts use the same person(s) year after year. It really doesn't matter if they are competent, it just matters if they are available.

THAT explains everything!
