More questions: 13. Is "team chemistry" a myth? The University of Georgia and University of Florida volleyball programs recently co-authored the white paper on this subject. A Bulldog or Gator may weigh in on this for you here.

Why do people not understand that approach touch matters more than physical height of a player? It does… ish. But most jumps that a player takes aren’t 100% of max jump. Even spike jumps are often in the 90% range and pretty common for blockers to have to react and jump from compromised positions. So jumps can fluctuate given how well the player read the play but height is always the same. And height makes timing easier because it’s constant, especially for blocking. Shorter players with big jumps are often great isolation blockers when they can release and max jump but can struggle in overload situations where you have to read and react in a less-than-full-jump situation. At an extreme example, many players in women’s college volleyball have a block touch over 9’6” but a 9’6” net would be impossible to spike on for most NCAA women.

Being small with a huge vert has that as a downside

Being small with a huge vert has that as a downside Yeah. And of course, you can probably assume the 5’10” big leaper is quicker and might be able to get their feet to some balls and so some things as an attacker that the bigger, slower player can’t. So there’s also an element of systems integration as well. For example, something that made Foluke an unstoppable slide hitter was not that she just high. She did, but not necessarily so much higher than other elite middles. But she was so quick off the ground it made her easy to set. A lot of times the best pipe hitters are undersized leapers because there’s a horizontal element that height doesn’t help (as much) with.

I have a dumb volleyball question. If in the course of hitting the players momentum or a stumble causes them to brush up against the referees platform, but not the net. Is that a net violation?

No. They can also touch the net outside of the antenna. Yes and No. In college and club/FIVB/USAV - yes, a player can touch the net, cables, Velcro straps, ropes,etc outside the antennas In HS/NFHS - No.

FIVB events pay less than $50/match. The premise is that you are there for the honor of working the event. Really? Does FIVB at least cover travel since most of the time you have to cross an ocean to get to the site assignment?

Don't know for sure, but based on my knowledge of some other sports, I am guessing the referee's national federation covers their travel costs.

Other support crew members are normally on their own, at least here in the states.

I have another set of questions:
1. If during Team A's attack, the ball goes over the net and a player on Team B gets her hand on the ball but the ball goes over the net to Team A's side and lands as a kill (and thus counts as a kill), does the player also get credit for the dig? (If "No," I'm assuming it's because a "dig" requires the ball to be playable by a teammate.)
2. If during Team A's serve, a player on Team B gets her hand on the ball but the ball goes over the net to Team A's side and lands as a kill, does the player get a pass rating? I'm assuming the answer is "YES" because it would be a "1" for an overpass. I'm just wondering if the fact that it landed as a kill makes a difference.

If there was an actual swing/attack by a Team A player, yes B player gets a dig and an unassisted kill. If it was an overpass/free ball, no dig, just an unassisted kill. 2. Can't answer for metrics/analytics stuff, but officially it's an unassisted kill for the B player. Counts as a reception but not a dig.

Another question.
In addition to the line in/out call, is the line judge also responsible for touch/no touch/antenna calls at the net?
(Note: I understand the up-ref usually makes these calls because he's standing right there. But I seem to remember many plays where the line judge also waved his flag frantically when a player hit the antenna.)
