Hitting:
|
Kill: A Kill is awarded to a player any time
an attack is unreturnable by the opposition or any time the attack leads
directly to a blocking error by the opposition. A Kill
leads directly to either a point or a side-out.
|
Attack Error: An Attack Error is charged to a player
whenever an attack is: Hit out of bounds, hit into the net leading to a
four hit or dead ball violation, or the ball is blocked down by the opposition
on to the same side as the attacker and cannot be kept in play. |
Hitting Efficiency: This is figured by taking the total number
of kills the attacker gets, subtracting the errors, then dividing by the
total number of attempts. These numbers are compared in a similar range
to a batting average. A player that hits over ".300" is considered good.
Hitting Efficiency = (Kills - Errors) / Total Attempts
