Slammo Playing rules
Rules:
Hitting the Ball: The Slammo
Ball can be hit, slapped, slammed or spiked, but
never held, palmed, double hit or thrown (volleyball rules).
Double Bouncing: For a shot to score, the ball must clear the net on its 2nd
bounce (2nd bounce on net is a sideout)
Player Interference: Players are allowed to move freely around the net, but
when one team is volleying, the other team must make an effort to get out of
the way. Accidental contact results in a do-over.
Pipe Hits: If a spiked ball hits the perimeter pipe around the net, it is a sideout.
Game Setup:
Slammo™ is played 2-on-2 and borrows many rules from volleyball, but unlike volleyball, there is no court or assigned
positions for Slammo™. Once your Slammo is assembled (see reverse side for instructions) and teams are picked, find a
wide open space, preferably on grass or sand, and place Slammo™ in the center. Teammates start opposite each other
for the serve (see diagram), but once the ball is in play, players are free to move anywhere around the net to make a play
on the ball. There is also no ‘out of bounds’ for Slammo™, so watch out for Slammo™ Spikes that send the ball into the next
neighborhood.
Playing The Game:
Serving: To serve, stand several feet from the net and hit the ball down onto the net at the opposing team. Serves must be
returnable, so no slamming on serves.
Volleying: Once the ball is served, the receiving team has up to 3 total hits to return the ball to the net.
Players on the
same team must alternate hits, but they are not required to make all 3 hits.
Scoring: Points are only awarded to the serving team. A team scores when the opposing team is unable to return
the ball to the net in 3 hits or less. If the non-serving team wins the turn, it is a sideout and they serve next.
Winning: The first team to 21 points wins and you must win by 2 points.
