Overlap check for rotation 4
At the moment of the serve, each front-row player must be closer to the net than the back-row player directly behind them (S2 ahead of OH2, MB1 ahead of MB2, OH1 ahead of S1), and each row must stay in order left to right (front: S2, MB1 and OH1; back: OH2, MB2 and S1). Every formation on this page follows these rules.
