The Libero Tracker tracks all Libero replacements and
all substitutions. For example, if Visitor requests a
substitution, #6 for #5, the libero tracker would record
that action by slashing the “5” and writing a “6”
immediately to the right of the of the slashed “5”.

Only #26 may re-enter the game for the libero; a proper
replacement results in the same number being entered
on both the left and right of the “L” on the tracking sheet.
The Libero Tracker must notify the second referee
immediately if an improper libero replacement occurs.

What if a team does not have a Libero?
No tracking will take place for that team
Note- A different libero can be designated for each set, but the designation must be made on the lineup sheet when it is submitted to the official scorer before the set.
During a time out, the Libero Tracker is to inform the R2 if the libero is ‘on’ of ‘off’ the court for each team when the time-out was requested.

The West libero replaces #23 to serve.
L
In addition to recording the libero exchanges, the libero tracker
must note the serving position of the libero to help ensure that
the libero only serves in one position in each set. When a
libero contacts the ball to serve, a triangle is drawn around the
corresponding Roman numeral in the “Serving Order” column
to note the libero service position. This will be the only service
position where the libero can serve for the remainder of the
current set.
Have a Great Volleyball Season!!!
