Pregame Rule Question |
Lead | |
|
Today we played in the AZ 16's Regional Championships. Our team played music during the pregame warmups before the first three matches. Before the finals a
coach from the opposing club said it was against USAV rules and got a region representative to support his posistion. A coach that overheard the discussion
said they have never heard of this rule(plus a few I asked).

My initial thoughts are: I don't remember anything in the USAV rule book about this, but there could be some kind of region policy...or perhaps the other
coach got away with one.

I don't know about the rule. But our team does play warm up music a lot of the time.

Music during prematch | ||
|
There is nothing in the USAV DCR that specifically says that music cannot be played during pre-match warm-ups. The only problem would arise if the players on
the court were wearing Ipods or Walkmen while they were warming up. If we are talking about music being played while the team warms up, there may be a
regional policy, but if someone said it was against the rules, I would ask them to "show me the rule."

Pregame warmup music | ||

I have to ask...is there a possibility that the music was somehow offensive or otherwise bothersome to others who could hear it? There are so many variety of
tastes out there that maybe he just got annoyed by either the lyrics or music itself? Or the parents did? I'm just trying to figure this out.

Music Was Not Offensive
Current dance music all clean version(itunes) hand selected with parental approval and the boom box was barely audible beyond our side of the court(no parent could even hear the lyrics just hear a little bass) This week I will attempt to determine if it could be a AZ region rule. Thanks for the posts to date |

First you need to learn not to be rude on the board. When you can do this then people will care what you say.
I think if this was to happen again I sure would ask to see it in writing that it is a rule. I dont think it is but would want to see it. Plus sounds like to me the coach of the other team was trying to get to your team. I think it might have worked since you lost. But if a team has to point out something that small then they must be scared of your team. Only the weak look for things to yell about. This music thing was a small thing why not yell about the Dad using a flash on his camera when in play. I hate that person come on you know that flash is blinding the player for few seconds. I all so hate when people raze the server when she is going to hit the ball. But I do thank you for coming to site and asking if it was a rule or not.... |

Well I found out that it there is no specific rule against warm-up music in the AZ region. However it is up to the discretion of the region site facilitator
and the lead referee of the site. So once the site director sided with the long time coach the issue was settled. The coach that complained was not our
opposing coach, but he is a founder/ coach of that club( 28 years) that we were going to play. Their victory really had nothing to do with the music(we have
National bid they have American). They clearly won that day.
BTW BigtexBro I didn't understand your post" First you need to learn not to be rude.......". I can't imagine that you were speaking to me, my posts are generally questions and always positive . Thanks for the info/thoughts |
