Feedback has been received and is encouraged to continue throughout the rest of the 2019 Spring Season. As requested, the ghost rule will be re-evaluated at the end of the season. Clarification on the rule and the expectation that the officials should enforce the rule has been discussed with AVOA.

Ghost Rule: Teams that are playing short will no longer be penalized a point when it is the ghost player's turn to serve, it will act only as a place holder in the lineup. The result of the ghost serve will still be a side-out and the opposing team will receive the ball to serve, but it will no longer result in a point for the opposing team.

Games scheduled for Super Bowl Sunday will be rescheduled to an alternate date at the end of the season. Coed C and Reverse B games will be moved to April 28th and Reverse C games will be moved to March 31st.
