Pe Line Judging
When a ball lands on or close to the sideline or end line that is closest to it,
line judges are supposed to help the referee call it.
It's crucial to focus on the ball and not the line. You run the risk
of making the incorrect call if you are focused on the ball rather
than the line. This is due to the fact that as the ball reaches the
ground, you won't have much time to concentrate on the line.
1. You should signal "IN" each time the ball comes down
close to a line that you are in charge of. You will signal "IN"
by extending two hands in front of your body at about waist
level, palms down, when the ball touches the ground inside
the court.
Watching where the ball crosses the net's plane is another duty of the
volleyball line judge.
If the ball goes outside of, or over, either antenna, it is considered "out."
Additionally, if the ball makes contact with the antenna or the outside of the net.
Hold your other hand over your head while signaling out while pointing with
one hand at the antenna.
This will let the referee know that the ball broke the net lawfully.
1. Throughout the game, the referee will be turning to you for assistance. Always
be willing to lend a hand.
2. No matter how obvious something may seem, call anything you observe. Do
not forget that a referee cannot always see everything. Due to being screened
from the play, a referee could miss a ball that lands three feet in the court.
3. Always send out excellent signals, and sell your calls hard. Have self-confidence
and be prepared to provide an authoritative signal. When you make the call, be
sure to make eye contact with the referee.
4. Don't panic if the referee decides differently than you. This will occur because
the referee occasionally has a different perspective. The likelihood of getting
overturned decreases significantly if you are making an effort and paying close
attention at all times.
5. Be prepared for the start of the next set. Know when the teams enter the court
for the upcoming set. When the second referee checks the lineups, you should
be prepared to play.
6. Get out of a player's path. Be sure to move out of the way when a player
approaches you to make a play so you don't obstruct the game.
