CONT

Change of position (rotation). Rotation must be clockwise. In the back row, the player in the right-hand corner moves to the center and the player in the center moves to the left-hand corner. This means that the player on the right in front moves to the right-hand corner in the back and serves. In this way, each player occupies each of the six positions in succession.

OBS

The six players in a team line up with three at the front of the court and three at the back for each service. When a team regains service, they must rotate positions. Each player moves one position clockwise. Once the ball is in play, the players may move about the court as they like.

Changement de position (rotation).

Comme résultat de cette rotation, l'avant droit devra occuper la position de l'arrière droit et effectuer le service.
