US Sideout Volleyball Association

International Federation
for Sideout Volleyball

This site is for volleyball enthusiasts worldwide who believe that sideout volleyball is more fun to play and more fun to watch.

We feel that adoption of full match rally scoring is the wrong way to increase interest and promote growth in the sport because in the long run the game is less interesting. Long a distinguishing feature of volleyball, sideout scoring adds drama and character to the game. Officials at FIVB have been working to promote volleyball through spectacle instead of spectator appeal. All rally scoring comes on the heels of rules requiring players to wear skimpy uniforms in sanctioned events and other gimics that detract from the appeal of the game itself. When USA Volleyball followed with all rally scoring, players and fans were left with little hope that any organization would stand as a voice of reason for longtime fans of the game. We, the simple players and fans of the game, are that voice.
