Live up to your commitments Consider how your performance is viewed by those who do not personally know you. Spectators, coaches, players and administrators need to scrutinize you as a neutral party. Volleyball is a team sport and this includes the officials. You will get further by working with others instead of going off on a personal power tip. Check your previous experience at the door.
Every match is a fresh start.
Remember that your role as an official is to provide an environment for fair play. Use the rules to promote the fun and competitiveness of the sport. Improve your skills by reviewing each match with your officiating crew. What could you have done better, what did you do well. Take that to your next match.
