Net violation

[oldsetter]

Of course I was discussing USAV rules. It was discussed by a couple of National Officials at the Big South Qualifier in the break room.

I like the way you discussed the logic of your rule interpretation.

Further discussion on 'distraction'. Some would argue that making the net move is a distraction to the other team...but considering that the net moves - sometimes a lot - when the ball hits the tape and goes over, I don't think that making the net move even by a large amount could be considered 'distracting' the other team. Like a ball rolling behind the end line of the receiving team causing the serving team to serve into the net.
