League Details

 

How Does It Work?

 

As with all of ZogSports' leagues, indoor volleyball is co-ed. It's 6 on 6, but a team is allowed to play with 4 to reduce forfeits. When you have 6 on the court, you must have at least 2 women. (If you have only 4 players, at least 1 must be a woman.) Each match consists of 3 games and we keep it exciting for everyone on the team through 4 of our divisions (Players, Sorta Players, Casual and Extremely Casual).

What's the Cost and What's Included?

 

Early/regular registration will open July 26th/August 6th and close August 5th/August 20th or earlier if the league sells out. League fees are $1075/1175 for a team of 10-12 players ($35 for each additional player over 12 - no limit to number of players on your roster) and $110/120 for individuals (we'll get everyone on a team). ZogSports donates a percentage of our profit to charity.

Fee includes:

  • 1 Scrimmage game
  • 8 regular season games
  • A heart-wrenching single elimination playoff tournament (50% of teams qualify)
  • Fun ZogSports referee for every game
  • One t-shirt per person on the roster
  • Gym fees
  • "Prize Money" from our sponsors donated to the winning team's charity of choice
  • Equipment
  • League administration
  • Organized Happy Hours at local bars after the games

When Does It Start and When Are the Games?

 

The season will begin September 7th. Every team will play approximately once a week with games on Monday-Thursday nights (about 1 game/week). Games start between 6:30pm - 10:30pm. Your division will not decide what night you play on.

Where Are We Playing?

All games will be in Manhattan at these great schools:

  • Washington Irving High School - 17th Street and Irving Place (10th Floor gym)
  • Murry Bergtraum High School - 411 Pearl Street (near Brooklyn Bridge and City Hall) (5th Floor gym)
  • PS 111 Adolf Ochs - 440 West 53rd (between 9th and 10th Avenue)
  • Park East High School - 230 E 105h (between 2nd and 3rd Avenue)

What Are the Rules?

 

This is a fun recreational league. So we want everyone to play, stay involved and stay safe. The key rules are:

  • 6 on 6, 4 men and 2 women (minimum). Teams may play as many as 6 women at a time.
  • It's volleyball, not Newcomb. No carrying, touching or hanging on the net and no taunting after you spike in your opponent's mug.
  • See above for the full set of rules

Levels of Play

 

  • Players Division - Think you're a jock? This division will be competitive, but still fun.
  • Sorta Players - Pretty good athletes, maybe played together before, but still social.
  • Casual Division - Played before? Not a bad athlete? This is the happy middle ground.
  • Extremely Casual Division - this is the pure fun division. It's for you if you're looking more for the social than the competition or consider yourself a beginner at the organized game.

ZogSports will try to accommodate all team and individual player requests for Division, but cannot guarantee all requests. We will not place a team or player more than 1 division (above or below) their original request.
