About VolleyRoster
Free volleyball rotation tools for coaches, parents, and players.
What it does
VolleyRoster is a free volleyball rotation builder and live game tracker. Enter your roster once and it lays out all six rotations for your system: where everyone stands at serve, a legal serve-receive formation, and where they play once the ball is in play, with a printable card for every player. On match day, the game tracker keeps score, follows the rotation, and records quick per-player stats. It is free, with no paywall. Every tool works without an account, and signing in keeps your teams and matches on every device you use.
Why it exists
Coaching a youth or club team means keeping track of rotations and a few basic stats during a game while also, ideally, watching the game.
Tools for this exist, but most are built for programs with budgets: subscriptions carrying far more than a youth team needs, where the setup takes longer than the match. VolleyRoster is the small version. It does enough to run a rotation and track the handful of stats that actually tell you something, with nothing to sign up for first and no monthly fee.
How it works
You pick a system (5-1, 6-2, or 4-2), place your starters, and the builder shows base, serve-receive, and in-play views for all six rotations. Guides cite primary rule and education sources such as the FIVB Official Volleyball Rules, Volleyball Canada Rules & Guidelines, and USA Volleyball rulebooks where those sources apply. Each guide states the version or season checked. Your local league rulebook controls when it differs. Diagrams illustrate the product's teaching model, including seven adjacency checks at service-hit alignment. They do not adjudicate every substitution, libero, or federation-specific variation. See each guide's Rule basis panel and “How VolleyRoster models legality” note for sources and limits.
What it doesn't do
VolleyRoster is not a governing body, referee association, tournament organizer, school or club authority, or legal advisor. It is not a substitute for the current official rules of your competition. Sample rosters and demo matches in the product are labelled demos, not real clubs or games. If you find an inaccurate rule explanation or broken source link, use the contact page or email hello@doublem.ca. Substantive guide corrections receive an updated “last reviewed” date on the page.
