One of the few volleyball apps that covers 9-player, soft volleyball and coed formats. "Am I tracking the rotation correctly?" "Did I lose count of the substitutions?" "It's my turn to officiate, but I've never done it before." V-Ref is built for assistant referees who want to stop worrying. No officiating experience needed - you can use it the first day you're asked. ■ Supported formats 6-player (official rules) / 6-player coed / 9-player / soft volleyball (4-player) / beach (2-player) Very few apps cover 9-player, soft volleyball and coed formats in one place. It works as-is for recreational leagues, club teams and local tournaments. ■ Key features · Real-time rotation tracking Enter jersey numbers and see the court layout at a glance. Catch rotation errors before they happen. · Score & set management Tap to track both teams. Always know the current set and match status. · Auto-counted substitutions & timeouts Remaining counts are tracked for you - no more mental math mid-match. · Automatic set & match end detection Score conditions are checked automatically so you never miss an end-of-set moment. · Pre-serve lineup warnings (6-player & coed) Warns when the libero is in the front row or serving position, or when the male/female alternation breaks in coed. · Libero handling Substitution limits and front-row / serving-position warnings are covered. · Match history & score sheet sharing Matches are recorded automatically. Review them later and share as a PDF. · Achievements & stats The more you use it, the more you unlock. ■ More features · Save and reuse teams Team names and jersey numbers are saved when a match starts. Load them back with one tap next time - no more retyping. Mark the teams you use often as favorites and reorder them freely. · Sanction records (warning, penalty, expulsion, disqualification) Record the cards shown by the first referee. The set and score at the time are kept with each entry and printed on the PDF score sheet. · App display language Switch between 12 languages from Appearance in settings. It follows your device language by default, so nothing changes unless you want it to. ■ Free to use All core features are free. A one-time Remove Ads purchase is available if you prefer no ads. You can mark 10 saved teams as favorites. Watch a video ad to add more slots, or raise the limit to 20 with the one-time Additional Favorite Slots purchase. ■ Please note This app assists the assistant referee's judgement and keeps your own record. It is not a replacement for an official score sheet. When submitting records for a tournament, follow the format required by the organizer. Available in 12 languages. For everyone who wants to referee with confidence.

RufioStats is live volleyball analytics without a trained statistician. A few taps per rally and the app keeps score, tracks rotations, and builds the stat sheet as the match happens. For anyone who cares about the numbers: coaches, club directors, statkeepers, players, and parents in the stands. If you can watch a rally, you can track it. **Capture the whole rally** - Serves, passes, sets, attacks, blocks, digs, and where on the court each one happened - Drag each attack's path on the court, with attack types as you call them: hard, placed, tip, dump - On iPad, draw the path while the ball is in the air. Attacks and serve errors log straight off the drawing - Or tap zones instead of drawing: a phone taps the zone while another device draws paths in the same match - Read the court in 6 zones or 9, your choice per team. Every map, zone card and report follows it - Tap Cover to credit whoever saved a blocked ball, and Block Assist to pick the whole wall - Draw their attack with nobody selected and it records as their kill or error, with where it landed - Optional detail: serve types, blockers faced, pancakes, and attack tempo from the set that was called - No full roster yet? Track by position, run the game with placeholders, or log team stats only - Save a default lineup and who plays in each rotation; live sub and libero prompts follow it **Beach doubles, in beta** - Set a team to Beach and track a pair: a two-slot serving order, 21/21/15 and AVP League scoring, and side switches - Pair stats: serve targeting, side-out by receiver, and a row per pair when you run several **Track together** - Split the match across devices, one on serve receive, another on attacks, and every rally merges into one live stat sheet - A helper can track on their own phone, even offline, and the statkeeper merges it in afterward - Coach view for the bench tablet: current run, serve targeting, who is hot or cold - Works offline; devices reconcile when the signal comes back - Switch sides for leagues that swap ends **Watch film while you track** - Attach a video file or a YouTube link and it plays beside the court on iPad, with rally flags and speed control - Stats you log remember where in the video they happened, and Film review opens the same film **Dashboards built from widgets** - Widgets you show, hide, resize and arrange: shot maps, dig, block and cover maps, tendencies - Save named dashboards to your account, share one with your team or by link - The same widgets run live and afterward: side-out and break-point by rotation, hitting efficiency, passer ratings - Rotations: a comparison table, an on-court map, and a Why this rotation card that explains your weakest one - Double-tap any card to save it as a branded image, ready to post **After the game** - Film review: step through the match and fix anything you missed, or run a film pass on any set and merge it - Export Center: print or share player handouts, a team or match report with court maps and insights, box scores, or CSVs - Player handouts open with strengths and things to work on, for a career, season, game or set - Import DataVolley (.dvw) scout files, one match or a whole league **Scout the other side** - Track an opponent, then read their rotation tendencies, serve targets, shot mix and pass quality - Export a scouting report, with the sample size behind every percentage **For college and club programs** - A college-style terminology option: Exc%, Pos%, Eff%, break point % - Coach view never enters stats and never signals a player on the court - Organizations with several teams: shared rosters, club admins, org-wide stat summaries **For families and fans** - Make the team public and share one link.
