Answer 5

volleyball referees basically do what any other referee does. They make calls whether there was a foot fault, someone stepped under the net. They can also give out yellow and red cards. Red cards mean you are thrown out of the game (these can be given to either players or coaches) Refs make calls if a player touches the net, if there are 4 touches (there are only suppose to be 3) they pretty much make sure its a fail game and goes by the rule book.

Answer 7

The first referee (R1) is the referee on the stand.  The R1 is in complete control of the match.  The R1 watches the serving team at the moment of serve and then follows the ball.  They are in charge of calling the ball handling calls.  The R1 is also in charge of the conduct of the team personnel.  They call back row attackers and blockers.  The R1 supervises all of the other officials including the R2, the line judges and the score table.  

The second referee (R2) is the referee on the floor.  They watch the receiving team at the moment of the serve.  They are responsible for everything on the R2 side of the net.  They are in control of the benches and the helps with the score table.  They control requests for time outs, line up checks and substitutions.  The R2 watches the net and the area inside the 3 meter line or the 10 foot line if you prefer.  

The umpire is the old name for the R2.  The R1 was called THE referee and the R2 was called THE umpire.  Now, they call them the first and second referee.
