1. Nets will be available at 5:45. As per the league president, nets not picked-up by 6:30 will be put back in the trailer, and the home team will forfeit. So, get there early.
2. Return your nets as soon as your match is complete, or you will incur the wrath of Mr. Gifford. And trust me, you do not want that.
3. Match results must be submitted by the Friday after your match (two days later). Failure to do so will result in entry of 0 wins - 5 losses.
4. Any disrespect shown toward NPS officials, especially those responsible for protecting the Plover, will be rewarded with banishment from the league.
5. Be aware, while smoking the ganja is legal in NYC, it is illegal on federal land.
6. Finally, clean-up after yourselves.

See the rules concerning forfeits, as stated in the RBVL Rulebook:

1. Teams consist of 6 players with a minimum of 2 female players (Exception - Game 1 may be played with 5 players with a minimum of 2 female players).
2. All volleyball matches will be played at Riis Park on Wednesday nights. Nets will be available for setup at 6:00 PM. It is the home team’s responsibility to set up the net. However, if both teams help out, the process will go faster. If the net is not ready for the first game to start at 6:45 PM, then the home team will forfeit game 1. Both teams are required to field legal teams by 6:45 PM. If they do not, a forfeit will be declared (If both teams do not, a double forfeit occurs.).

   If Game 1 has been forfeited:

   • Game 2 will have a forfeit time of 7:00 p.m.
   • Game 3 will have a forfeit time of 7:15 p.m.
   • Game 4 will have a forfeit time of 7:30 p.m.
   • Game 5 will have a forfeit time of 7:45 p.m.

   If a legal game has been played, the next game shall be deemed to start immediately following (There is no additional 15-minute waiting period, once play has begun).

   Should a player become injured during the match and unable to continue playing, the team will be considered incomplete unless there is a substitute on the sidelines. In this instance, the substitute may enter onto the court regardless of the position. The injured player may not substitute in that game but must wait for a subsequent game to return.

3. If a team forfeits an entire match they will be penalized $50. This fee must be paid by the following week or the team will not be allowed to play.
4. Any team that forfeits three matches during the season, or two consecutive weeks, will face expulsion from the league, the following season.
