Set Includes

Setup

The GoSports® Splash Net® PRO brings exciting volleyball action to any pool day! Since all pool layouts are different, you will want to take into consideration the placement of the net so as to avoid playing in water that is too deep or too shallow, so choose the setup that works best for you (see examples below). The net has a maximum width of 25 feet and can be adjusted to be shorter to fit the width of your pool.

Depending on your pool, choose the net placement that works best for you. Above are just a few examples of how you might set up Splash Net PRO.

Assembly Instructions

Two person assembly is required.

First remove the Net Connector Straps (if any) from the Uprights before assembly.

1. Begin by assembling the two Bases at the edges of your pool. To assemble each base, insert the Upright through the bottom hole of the Base and ensure both parts are firmly secured. Then slide 1 bottom Net Connector Strap and 1 top Net Connector Strap onto each Upright as shown.

2. With each base set in the desired location opposite each other, fill the bases with water and seal them each with the Base Fill Cap. Note: Before filling, ensure the GoSports® logos on the bases are facing in towards the pool for maximum stability. Once filled, the bases will be heavy to move.

3. Spread the net out on the ground across the width of your pool and use the net Adjustment Straps to adjust the strap length to match your pool width. The straps are adjusted similar to backpack straps. Then walk both ends of the net to the bases and clip both ends of the net onto the upper and lower straps of the Uprights. Once connected, do final adjustments to get the net taught.

4. Pump up the volleyballs with the included pump and you are now ready to enjoy your Splash Net PRO!

Splash Net® PRO Care Instructions

• Never pull or hang on the net.
• It’s normal for the net to loosen over the course of a game. To tighten, slide the Uprights apart or tighten the Net Connectors Straps.
• The net should be unhooked and stored inside along with the volleyballs when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
• The plastics used are UV treated to increase their resistance to fading, but they will eventually fade if left out in direct sunlight. This should not affect gameplay, but to prolong the product’s lifespan, we recommend also storing the upright assembly inside if not playing for long periods of time. Ensure the base is drained and all parts are dry before storing.

Pool Volleyball Rules

The rules of pool volleyball are similar to the rules of traditional volleyball. The rules can also be adjusted for more recreational play. Teams are typically made up of 2, 4, or 6 players on each side. Depending on the swimming experience of each player and the depth of the pool, players can also play while using a floatation device for more comfortable and fun gameplay.

Splash Net® PRO Water Volleyball Gameplay

• Decide how many points each set will be played to (11, 15, or 25 points) and which team will begin with the service of the ball.
• Each set ends when the first team scores the decided amount.
• Best out of three sets wins (first team to win 2 sets).

The size of the “court” will depend on the available space in the pool. The ball is considered out of bounds when it hits the pool edges, or goes outside of the pool.

Serving

• Use an overhand, sidearm or underhand serve. The ball must go over the net in bounds to the other team.
• Serving is normally 8 feet from behind the net, but can vary depending on available pool space. After serving, the ball can only be hit 3 times before it has to cross the net to the opposing side. Consecutive hits by the same player are not allowed.
• The team that is awarded the point after a rally will then serve.

Scoring

Points are scored after a rally. Every serve will result in a score regardless of which team is serving. After points are awarded, a new serve begins the next rally.

A single point is scored when the following occurs during the game:

• When a player from the opposing team hits or crosses the net while the ball is in play
• When the ball is in possession of the opposing team and it touches the water
• The ball is not returned over the net
• The opposing team fails to return service
• The ball is hit out of bounds
• A player of the opposing team double-hits the ball
• The ball is hit at the same time by two players on the same team
• A player makes an illegal ball hit such as pushing, carrying, or catching the ball

The winning team must have a 2 point lead to end the set. If there is only 1 point separating the overall score of both teams, the teams must set an agreed upon total. Then the teams will play a set until one team has a 2-point advantage.
