What are the different types of volleyball referee exams. How do referees access and complete the required exams. What scores are needed for various certification levels.
Types of Volleyball Referee Exams
The Professional Association of Volleyball Officials (PAVO) develops several theoretical exams each year in coordination with the NCAA and USA Volleyball. These exams are a crucial part of the certification and recertification process for volleyball referees. Let’s explore the main types of exams:
Form A Exam
Who is it for? Form A is designed for more experienced referees. It tests both knowledge and application of volleyball rules.
- Required for Local, State, and National certified referees
- Must be taken online
- Tests both rules knowledge and practical application
Form B Exam
When is Form B used? Form B serves as a re-test option in certain situations:
- Some certification levels allow either Form A or Form B
- Used if a referee doesn’t achieve the required score on Form A
- Specifically required for National referees who don’t score 90% on Form A
- Must be taken online
Exam Requirements and Certification Levels
Different certification levels have varying exam requirements. Here’s a breakdown:
Annual Exam Requirement
Do all PAVO referees need to take an exam every year? Yes, all PAVO member-referees must take a theoretical exam annually to obtain or maintain their certification.
Certification-Specific Requirements
How do exam requirements differ by certification level?
- Local, State, and National certified referees: Must take Form A
- National referees: Required to score 90% or higher on Form A, or take Form B if they don’t reach that threshold
- Some local boards may have specific score requirements for either Form A or Form B
Accessing and Completing the Exams
How do referees access the required exams? The process is straightforward for PAVO members:
- Ensure current year PAVO dues are paid
- Access the NCAA Central Hub
- Select and complete either Form A or Form B online
- Submit answers upon completion
Immediate Feedback
What happens after a referee completes an exam? The online system provides instant results:
- Test-takers receive immediate feedback on their score
- Correct answers are provided for review
- This allows referees to quickly assess their performance and identify areas for improvement
The Importance of Theoretical Exams in Referee Development
Why are these exams crucial for volleyball referees? Theoretical exams serve several important purposes:
- Ensure referees maintain up-to-date knowledge of rules and their application
- Provide a standardized measure of competence across certification levels
- Encourage ongoing learning and professional development
- Help identify areas where additional training or focus may be needed
By requiring annual exams, PAVO maintains high standards for volleyball officiating and promotes continuous improvement among its members.
Preparing for Volleyball Referee Exams
How can referees best prepare for these exams? Here are some effective strategies:
- Thoroughly review the current NCAA Volleyball Rules Book
- Stay updated on any recent rule changes or interpretations
- Participate in local board meetings and training sessions
- Utilize online resources and practice quizzes when available
- Discuss rules scenarios with fellow referees to deepen understanding
Consistent study and practical application of rules knowledge are key to success on these exams and in on-court performance.
Beyond the Exam: Continuing Education for Volleyball Referees
While annual exams are crucial, what other forms of ongoing education should referees pursue? PAVO and local boards often provide additional opportunities:
- Attend regional or national clinics and workshops
- Participate in mentorship programs
- Review match videos to analyze and discuss difficult calls
- Stay engaged with rule interpretation bulletins and updates
- Seek feedback from assignors and evaluators
By combining theoretical knowledge with practical experience and ongoing education, referees can continually improve their skills and advance in their officiating careers.
The Role of Technology in Referee Exams and Development
How has technology impacted the referee examination and development process? The shift to online exams has brought several benefits:
- Increased accessibility for referees across different geographical areas
- Ability to incorporate multimedia elements like video clips into exam questions
- Faster grading and feedback processes
- Easier tracking of exam results and referee progress over time
- Potential for adaptive testing based on referee performance
As technology continues to evolve, we may see even more innovative approaches to referee testing and development in the future.
Challenges and Controversies in Referee Examination
Are there any ongoing debates or challenges related to volleyball referee exams? Like any assessment system, referee exams have their share of discussions:
- Balancing theoretical knowledge with practical on-court decision-making skills
- Ensuring exam questions accurately reflect real-game scenarios
- Addressing potential disparities in exam performance between experienced and newer referees
- Maintaining exam integrity in an online environment
- Continually updating exams to reflect evolving rules and interpretations
PAVO and other governing bodies work to address these challenges and improve the examination process over time.
From Exam to Court: Applying Theoretical Knowledge in Real Games
How do referees bridge the gap between exam performance and on-court officiating? Successfully translating theoretical knowledge into practical application involves several key elements:
- Mental preparation: Visualizing scenarios and potential calls before matches
- Pre-game conferences: Discussing key points and potential challenges with crew members
- In-game focus: Staying present and applying rules knowledge in real-time
- Post-game reflection: Analyzing decisions and identifying areas for improvement
- Continuous learning: Seeking feedback and studying game situations regularly
By consistently working to apply their exam knowledge in practical situations, referees can enhance their overall officiating performance and decision-making abilities.
The Future of Volleyball Referee Certification and Examination
What trends or changes might we see in volleyball referee certification and examination in the coming years? Several potential developments could shape the future:
- Integration of virtual reality or augmented reality training simulations
- More frequent, smaller assessments throughout the year instead of a single annual exam
- Increased emphasis on situational judgment and decision-making skills
- Greater collaboration between different volleyball governing bodies for standardized global certification
- Implementation of artificial intelligence to provide personalized learning paths for referees
As the sport of volleyball continues to evolve, referee certification and examination processes will likely adapt to meet new challenges and opportunities.
Volleyball refereeing is a complex and demanding role that requires a combination of theoretical knowledge, practical skills, and ongoing development. The examination process established by PAVO and other governing bodies plays a crucial role in maintaining high standards of officiating across all levels of the sport. By understanding the different types of exams, preparing effectively, and committing to continuous learning, referees can not only succeed in their annual assessments but also excel in their on-court performance. As technology and the sport itself continue to advance, the future of volleyball referee certification and examination promises to be an exciting and dynamic field, always striving to support and elevate the crucial role that officials play in the game.

REFEREE EXAMS
Annually, PAVO works in close coordination with the NCAA and USA Volleyball to develop a series of theoretical (written) exams for PAVO member-referees. All PAVO referees are required to take a theoretical exam yearly to obtain or maintain PAVO certification. The referee’s certification level determines which exam is taken and the minimum required score.
The exams developed include:
Form A – written for the more experienced referee and tests both knowledge and application of the rules. Local, State, and National certified referees are required to take the Form A exam. Form A must be taken online.
Form B – some certification levels and local boards require a particular exam score on EITHER Form A or Form B. If Form A is taken and the required score is not attained, Form B is used to re-test the referee. Specifically, National referees who do not score the required 90% on Form A must take Form B. Form B must be taken online.
PAVO members who have paid current year dues access the Form A or B exam via the NCAA Central Hub. Once the online Form A or B exam is completed and the answers are submitted, the test-taker receives immediate feedback on their score and the particular question(s) missed. Results and corrections can then be submitted to the appropriate Affiliated Board Chair and results can be forwarded to any number of selected assignors, conferences, etc. via the online exam site. The online exam will be available on the NCAA Central Hub website until October 15 each year; however, the NCAA has established a September 1 (11:59 pm Central Time) exam deadline for all referees who wish to be considered for post-season assignment (all NCAA Divisions). To be included in the post-season selection pool, a score of at least 90% on Form A or Form B must be attained. Also, by September 1 (11:59 pm Central Time), all PAVO National referees must complete the Form A (or B) exam and attain a score of at least 90%, as one of their annual maintenance requirements.
CLICK HERE to access the Form A/B Exams
Form C – Intended for entry-level referees, this exam can be used as a part of the certification process for new referees and/or recertification of Apprentice referees. Form C may be taken online, or a paper copy is available from your Affiliated Board Chair.
CLICK HERE to access the Form C Exams
Specific requirements for each PAVO certification level are:
- Apprentice referees – Apprentice referees may take the Form C exam, and required results are established by each PAVO Affiliated Board. Each board chair is provided a master copy of the Form C exam, which can then be used for training and testing. Form C is also available online in each member’s MY REF KIT tab after logging into the PAVO website. Each Apprentice referee may use the rulebook or other resources to correct the exam to 100%, noting the rule references on the answer sheet.
- Local and State referees – Referees seeking or currently holding a Local or State certification must take the Form A exam each year. The referee must correct any missed answers and may use the rulebook or other resources to obtain the correct answers. The appropriate rule reference(s) is noted. It is recommended that each referee or candidate take the exam closed-book, then have a member of the Affiliated Board’s exam committee correct the exam and discuss the questions that were missed with the referee or candidate. The rule book may then be used to correct the exam to 100%. The deadline for the Form A exam is October 15, and the exam is not available after that date.
- National referees & National referee candidates – National referees and those striving to become a National referee in the upcoming season must take the Form A exam online each year, closed-book (use of the rulebook, PAVO Women’s Volleyball Officiating Manual, or other materials is not permitted) and within a 90-minute time frame. A score of 90% must be attained to be eligible for a National Rating Team (NRT) site (if a candidate), or to maintain the National certification (if currently a National referee). If a score of 90% is not attained on Form A, the referee is allowed to review and discuss the questions that were missed, and then must take the Form B exam, closed-book. The PAVO NRT Director must receive examination results annually by September 1 (11:59 Central Time) for all National referees. If, after taking both Form A and Form B, a current National referee does not attain a score of 90%, the referee is ineligible to receive renewal points for that season. Failure to meet this requirement twice during the same certification term will result in the referee losing the National certification. National referees must also complete the current-year online line judge exam (see below) by September 1 as a maintenance requirement.
LINE JUDGE EXAMS
PAVO develops an annual written exam for line judges as part of the certification materials. The line judge exam is included with the current-year Line Judge Training Manual. To obtain a basic line judge certification, this exam is taken at the clinic and reviewed and corrected as part of the training process.
National line judges must take the online line judge exam annually by September 1 (11:59 PM Central Time) as a maintenance requirement. The exam can be accessed on the PAVO website, after login, from the member’s MY REF KIT tab.

SCORER EXAMS
PAVO develops an annual written exam for scorers as part of the certification materials. The scorer exam is included with the current-year Scorer Training Manual. To obtain a scorer certification, this exam is taken at the clinic and reviewed and corrected as part of the training process.

2013-2014 USA Volleyball REFEREE EXAM – Form C Although USA Volleyball (USAV) and PAVO collaborate in developing the referee examinations, for clarity and simplification, the Form A and Form B examinations are specific to each rules code. However, the Form C exam is utilized by USA Volleyball for entry-level referees, junior players and coaches, and adult player/team referees, as well as for training and educational purposes. This is the USAV Form C examination. If a person taking this written exam needs testing accommodations, that person should approach the test administrator to report those needs and provide documentation to support the requirement for those testing accommodations. Exam Instructions and Information: Read each question thoroughly and answer each question on the attached answer sheet using current USA Volleyball Domestic Competition Regulations (DCR). Any USAV clarification boxes in the DCR take precedence over the corresponding FIVB rule, and the clarifications, if applicable, should be used when considering each answer. Important rules clarifications and points of emphasis are also included in the DCR, under the “Techniques, Mechanics & Procedures” section. “Team S” refers to the serving team, and “Team R” refers to the receiving team. When a team’s serve or receive status is not relevant to the question, “Team A” or “Team B” is used to differentiate the teams. The following assumptions pertain to each question unless other conditions are specifically noted: Rule 10.1.2 (“Pursuit Rule”) is in effect. Do not consider special rules used in “Open” competition or “14 and Under” competition unless specifically noted in the question. No sanctions (team or individual) have been assessed other than those specifically described in the question. The penalty area is not being used. Requests for interruptions (time-outs, substitutions) or line-up checks have not been acknowledged (whistled) by the referees. Unless otherwise noted, the referees’ signal sequence is not relevant when answering the question. Exam questions cover USAV Case Book material.

USA Volleyball – Exam Answer Sheet
Form C 2013
2013-2014 USA VOLLEYBALL REFEREE EXAM FORM C For the purpose of this test use the following information: R = RECEIVING TEAM R1 = RIGHT BACK R2 = RIGHT FRONT R3 = CENTER FRONT R4 = LEFT FRONT R5 = LEFT BACK R6 = CENTER BACK
S = SERVING TEAM S1 = RIGHT BACK S2 = RIGHT FRONT S3 = CENTER FRONT S4 = LEFT FRONT S5 = LEFT BACK S6 = CENTER BACK
DIRECTIONS: Read each situation carefully. Decide whether the statement is true (T) or false (F). Write either “T” or “F” in the space provided on the answer sheet. Assume no other conditions exist except those specifically mentioned in the question. 1.
The Libero, who is in the front zone near the net, reaches higher than the top of the net in an attempt to block the ball coming from the opponent, but the Libero does not touch the ball. The referees should allow play to continue.
2.
Team B wears black shorts. The shorts are the same style and length, but some have 4” white stripes down the side and some do not. This team is considered to have legal uniforms.
3.
At the moment of service contact, S1 has one foot in contact with the sideline extension. S1’s foot is not touching the playing surface beyond the sideline, therefore there is no service fault.
4.
During time-outs, teams may warm up with practice balls anywhere in the free zone surrounding their court.
5.
The second referee may whistle to stop play when the ball contacts the floor if the first referee is not in position to see the ball land.
6.
If simultaneous contact with the ball above the net by two opponents leads to extended contact (joust), a double fault has occurred and the rally is replayed.
7.
After the third team hit by Team S, R4 reaches over the net and attacks the ball before it enters the vertical plane of the net. Since the attack took place after Team S’s third team hit, no violation has occurred.
8.
R6 is in the front zone near the net and jumps to try to make the team’s second contact. The ball enters the plane of the net where both R6 and S2 simultaneously touch the ball above the top of the net. R6’s action is an illegal block.
9.
One assistant coach at a time may stand and give instructions to players on the court but cannot otherwise intervene in the match.
