Pioneerball rules
Pioneerball is a ball sport in which teams compete on a court divided by a net.
The game appeared in the 30s of the last century as a backyard version of volleyball, and its name comes from the word " pioneer"- a member of the children's communist organization of the USSR.
Game history
The game appeared in 1930s during the Soviet era. A game for children that was played, often not on special sites and sometimes even without a net, simply marked the boundaries of the field with something. Now it is played mainly on a volleyball field, with a volleyball or basketball. The rest of the rules remain the same.
There are several varieties of pioneer ball, for example, a pioneer ball with two balls. In this variant, after the start of the game, the goal of the players is to prevent both balls from being in their half of the court. Pioneerball for the blind is also known.

2. The rules of the game of pioneer ball and the organization of the lesson
Scoring Rules:
- A team is awarded points if the ball touches the court in the opponent's half. Moreover, it does not matter if the opponents could not catch the ball after the serve or dropped it during the pass.
- If the ball after the opponent's serve went out of bounds without touching the players of the receiving team. Otherwise, the opponent earns a point.
- If, after an opponent's serve, the ball flew under the net or hit the net and remained in the opponent's half. If the ball touched the net, but flew over to the side of the receiving team, by prior agreement between the teams there may be such options: re-serve, transfer of service or accrual of a winning point to the receiving team.
- If a team has made more than the number of passes allowed by the rules, then a point is awarded to the opposing team.
- If the player in possession of the ball has taken more than three steps on the court, a point is also awarded to the opponents.
- In addition, points are awarded to the opposing team if: the player catches the ball thrown by him (makes a candle”), touches the ball with his feet, touches the net.
Submission transition rules:
This rule until recently existed in volleyball. It has now been cancelled. The meaning of the rule is that the serving team, in case of any mistake made, loses only the right to serve.
No points are awarded to the opponent. Those. points can only be awarded to the serving team. It must be borne in mind that this rule significantly increases the duration of each game.
There are numerous variants of volleyball that have branched off from the main type - beach volleyball ( olympic look since 1996), mini-volleyball, pioneer ball, park volleyball.
Pioneerball
The game is played with a volleyball on a volleyball court. Each team usually has 6 people. The site is conditionally divided into 6 zones according to the number of players.The back row player, being within the court in the far right corner, makes a throw through the net into the half of the field of the opposing team. One of the players of the opposing team must catch the ball and, having made no more than three steps or one pass of the ball and two steps in their own half of the court, throw it over the net back to the half of the field of the first team. One of the players of the first team must also catch the ball and, having made no more than three steps or one transfer of the ball and two steps, transfer it to the opponent's half of the field. And so on until the ball hits the ground - then the team that threw the ball gets one point.
The ball is considered lost by the receiving team, and the serving team loses the service if:
- the ball touched the floor;
- the player took more than three steps with the ball in attack;
- the ball touched the player's body below the belt or rolled over the body;
- the player touched the net;
- the player touches the ball twice in a row;
- the player has crossed the middle line;
- the ball flew over the net, but landed behind the lines limiting the area;
- the ball flew under the net or touched objects outside the court.
The right of the first serve in the match is determined by a lottery, after each game there is a change of sides and the opposite team serves first. In the middle of the decisive (third) set, the sides are changed, the same player makes the serve after the change.
Options
Sometimes the "rule of three passes" applies, in which case the players of the same team must throw the ball between themselves twice, and the third throw must be made to the opponent's half of the field. In addition, the “lost serve” rule that previously existed in volleyball may apply. In this case, the team that conceded the ball, which was serving, only loses the serve, but does not give points to the opponents. Thus, for one serve, only the serving team can be awarded points.There is a variant of the pioneer ball with two balls. Two teams of 6-8 players each play. Players standing closer to the corners of the court receive the ball and prepare to serve (throw the ball to the opponent's half of the field) on the referee's whistle. After the whistle, the task of each team is to ensure that both balls do not simultaneously end up in its half of the field, but touch the hands or the ground in the opponent's half of the field. In this case, the game stops and the team with two balls on the court loses the point. Balls that collided in the air are returned for a new serve. The rest of the rules are similar to the main version of the pioneer ball.
Volleyball court and ball
For the game, an 18 by 9 meter field is used, divided in half by a grid having a height of 243 centimeters for male teams and 224 centimeters for women.The site for one team is conditionally divided into 6 zones of activity of the participants. The transition between them is done clockwise. The serving player is in the first zone, he moves to the fifth, bypassing the middle defender - the libero. This player cannot block or attack because he is always on the back line. He does not make transitions and his kit must be different in color from the rest of the team.
The volleyball is usually tri-colored. Competition rules regulate its weight (260-280 grams) and diameter (65-67 centimeters).
