How to set up the volleyball nets.
Just a reminder, NEVER, EVER, use the net from the Club Volleyball cabinet.
Here are the guidelines for setting up volleyball in the Marino Recreation Center:
Always check the facility schedule for open volleyball, club volleyball and IM volleyball scheduled times.
Always use the silver poles for open volleyball. The silver poles use a specific net, the net have chains at the end of it and is in a bag labeled (IM and Open Volleyball) and can be found inside the IM cabinet.
On some occasions, you may need to set up 2 nets for open volleyball, such as on Sundays this semester when we have open volleyball scheduled on 2 courts at the same time and Club and IM is scheduled right after both. In this case, you will need to use both the silver poles set and the black poles set, as follow:
- ALWAYS, when Club Volleyball is following open volleyball, make sure that you set up the silver poles/net on the assigned court, and make sure you take down the net after open volleyball is done (keep the poles is place), store it back in the bag, and lock it in the IM cabinet. DO NOT LEAVE IT OUT FOR CLUB USE, they have their own net and they will set it up. PLEASE make sure you use the pads from club volleyball cabinet
- On the court that IM is following open volleyball, make sure you set up the black poles (the net is in the IM cabinet), and the pads are also found in the IM cabinet.
- Do not mix the nets, the net that goes on the silver poles, have couple of chains attached at the end of it. The net for the black poles DOES NOT have any chains attached to it.
- DO NOT OPEN THE CLUB VOLLEYBALL cabinet unless you are retrieving the pads. We do not store anything in it that belongs to our programs.
Along with that, when we set up volleyball it’s always imperative to use pads on the polls. This is even more crucial when there are multiple volleyball setups at the same time. Along with the normal pads for volleyball setup, there is a scenario that we can use the club pads for open volleyball. Here are scenarios in which each set of pads should be used:
- Open volleyball prior to Club & IM: Use the club pads on the silver poles (from the club volleyball cabinet) and the regular pads on the black poles (found in the IM cabinet).
- Open volleyball at the same time as Club: use the regular pads (found in the IM cabinet) on silver poles, as club will use one set of the silver poles and we will use the other. If any issues with the second set of silver poles, please set up open volleyball using the black poles.
- Only Open volleyball with nothing following: Use the silver polls with the regular pads (found in the IM cabinet)..
- Only Open volleyball with Club following: Use the silver polls, the regular pads (found in the IM cabinet), and the net from IM cage, but make sure to remove the net and place it back in the IM cabinet as well as the pads. Club volleyball will set up their own net and pads.
