This is ensured by the two players standing across from each other. The server must serve to the designated receiver. Players may move around the net as needed to spike the ball off the net and toward the opposition. The team that is not receiving the serve must move 6 feet from the net.Īfter the serve, the net becomes a 360-degree playing field. Typically the team that scored the previous point serves, but at the start of the game teams play rock paper scissors to determine who will initiate the first point. Team members should be standing side-by-side and all preparing for the initial serve. Play commences with all players standing in a square around the net. When the net is secured, the ball should bounce off the net freely. The structure should be 36” across and 8” off the ground. The net used in Spike Ball is tightly and evenly pulled across a tiny trampoline structure. If the ball is overinflated, it tends to just bounce straight up in the air and strips the game of some important opportunity for strategy. The ball should be inflated until the ball has a 12” circumference for the optimum bounce. Spike Ball utilizes only two pieces of equipment - a lightweight bouncy ball and a small circular net.
The original name for this game was Roundnet, however after the brand Spike Ball began producing the game’s equipment, Spike Ball replaced Roundnet as the common moniker.
