A/GAces Per GameAces / Games Played The average number of aces acquired during a game over the season.
Ace %Aces/SAThe ace percentage is the total aces divided by the total service attempts. Ace Percentage is only counted when/if serve attempts are recorded.
SAService AttemptsTotal number of service attempts for the game (season). A service attempt is given any time a player attempts to serve the ball or when a player is given a Service Ace or Service Error. A service attempt should also be assigned to a player who - because they were out of rotation- did not serve, but should have served.
AAcesTotal number of service aces during the game (season). A service ace is awarded when a serve results directly in a point. An ace is also awarded if the receiving team is out of rotation or commits a lift or carry on the first touch.
SEService ErrorsTotal number of service errors during the game (season). A service error is given when the serve lands out of bounds, does not go over the net, or hits the antennea. A service error is also given if the server commits a foot fault, takes too much time or serves out of rotation (given to the player who should have been serving).
PTSRotation PointsTotal number of points scored by the team while this player was serving. This stat is used to measure a team's effectiveness in each rotation; however, it is not very insightful unless the rotation (line-up) remains consistent. A rotation point is awarded each time this player serves and the team wins the rally.
A/SAces Per SetThe average number of aces per set.

HeaderNameDescription
SRGServe Receptions / Games PlayedThe average number of serve receptions successfully completed per game.

HeaderNameDescription
B/GBlocks Per GameTotal Blocks / Games Played The average number of blocks during a game throughout the season.
BTotal BlocksSolo Blocks + Assisted Blocks This number is automatically calculated when solo and assisted blocks are assigned - or it may be manually entered if the coach/statistician does not record solo and assisted blocks seperately.
BSBlock SolosTotal number of solo blocks during the game (season). A solo block is awarded a single player blocks the ball into the opposing team's court leading directly to a point. The blocker must be the only blocker attempting to block the ball. Simply making ball contact that does not result directly in a point during a block attempt should NOT be recorded as any kind of block. This is commonly referred to as a "touch" and is not currently tracked by MaxPreps.
BABlock AssistsTotal number of assisted blocks during the game (season). An assisted block is awarded when two or three players block the ball back into the opponent's court for a point. Each player attempting to block receives an assist even if it is obvious that only one player actually makes contact with the ball. Simply making ball contact that does not result directly in a point during a block attempt should NOT be recorded as any kind of block. This is commonly referred to as a "touch" and is not currently tracked by MaxPreps.
BEBlock ErrorsTotal number of blocking errors during the game (season). A blocking error is assigned when a one of the players attempting to block is called for a violation by the referee during a blocking attempt. Generally this occurs when the blocker commits a net violation, crosses the center line, reaches over the net, lift/carries the ball or attempts to block from the back row.
