JAMES W asked:
Volleyball rule: A ball is served to your team but the ball hits the top of the net and continues over to you. A person may not attack the ball that clears the net but what is the rule when the ball hits the net on the serve? Can a player return the ball in that situation? I was told that the net makes the served ball a dead ball for a serve and can be returned as a normal ball sent over the net.

It is still a served ball, and should be treated the same as the one that cleared the net.

you still have to return it as a serve, so no you can not attack it.

I think the idea of being able to attack the serve because it hit the net is another one of those word of mouth rules. I looked through the book and I can not find anything in the book to back up that idea.

It depends on the rules your playing by. Rally score you play it normal, so no attacking, but its playable. Side out scoring, its a side out. Your own rules and scoring… priceless.
