NCAA Ball Handling Directive

The NCAA Women's Volleyball Rules Committee clarified the 2008 Ball Handling Directive at their annual meeting this past January. This will be published in the 2009 NCAA Women's Volleyball Rules Book. Since this wasn't a rules change, it did not get distributed with the Comment Period communication and is not subject to PROP approval. [Click here to read the directive as a PDF on the AVCA website.]

The MGVCA is a statewide organization for high school coaches of girls volleyball. Begun in the 1970's, this organization has annually held clinics, chosen a coaches All State Team, and maintained an active presence regarding issues which impact our sport. The primary goal of this organization is to serve as a resource for its constituents, currently 254 in number. We generally meet twice per year (pre- and post-season) in addition to our March clinic. Currently, we have one voting member on the MIAA Volleyball Committee.
