01 / The Mission

Not a match.
A live show.

We're building the most entertaining family sports experience in America — through volleyball.

Rally scoring. Music that never stops. Tricks, stunts, glow balls and beach-ball chaos. A team that dances between every set and pulls the whole crowd into the action. JollyBall keeps the competition real — and makes the night unforgettable.

Meet the Austin Jackrabbits

Austin Jackrabbits primary crest

The Jackrabbits
don't walk.

Fast. Fearless. Always Hopping.

They don't stand still. They don't quit. They're constantly moving, jumping, dancing, celebrating and interacting with fans — explosive acceleration, massive vertical leaps, and relentless energy from the first serve to the final point.

Their fan section? The Stampede.

03 / The Show

The rules bend.
The crowd wins.

JollyBall plays rally scoring, best 3-of-5 to 21 — then breaks every expectation with rally twists nobody sees coming. Five poses, one Stampede.

The Stampede — Dig Deep, Jack Spike, High Hops, Jump Serve, Stampede Energy
20+ Second Rally

Point Boost

Survive a 20-second rally and the announcer screams "POINT BOOST!" — that rally is now worth double.

Ball Hits The Crowd

Fan Catch

A live ball flies into the stands? Catch it before it lands — your team wins the rally and you win a prize.

First Serve

Kid Serve

One lucky kid is chosen for the ceremonial opening serve, then sprints off as the players take over.

Mascot Interrupts

Giant Beach Ball

Jack stops play and tosses in a giant beach ball. Next rally is pure chaos — and worth 2 points.

Two Live Balls

Two-Ball Rally

A second ball joins the first, both in play at once. Both are now worth 2 points. Good luck.

Lights Out

Glow Rally

The arena dims, a glow ball enters, and everyone knows something special is happening. Worth 2 points.

Plus the stunts: Jump-off-the-back spike Front-flip serve Full-team net block Mini-trampoline rally Power-play serve Between-set dance routines

Meet Jack
05 / The Mascot

Mischief in
a jersey.

Jack the Jackrabbit is always up to something — and never, ever affects the score.

  • Constantly stealing volleyballs mid-game
  • Challenges kids to races down the sideline
  • Interrupts interviews and starts dances
  • Triggers the Giant Beach Ball & Two-Ball rallies
  • Leads the Stampede and gets the whole crowd loud
06 / The Cast

Everyone's a character

The refs have storylines. The line judges have egos. Even the rulebook is part of the entertainment.

Head Referee

The Sheriff

Dead serious about the rules — with a dramatic whistle and a secret love of dancing he keeps getting caught doing.

Junior Referee

The Deputy

Eager to impress the Sheriff, takes everything far too seriously, and is always one step behind the fun.

Energy Official

The Hype Ref

Has to stay composed but absolutely loses it over every great play. Spoiler: he never stays composed.

Line Judge

Eagle Eye

Confident, quick, and doesn't miss a thing. If the ball touched the line, Eagle Eye already knows.

Line Judge

The Professor

"According to my calculations…" — measures everything, takes notes, and over-analyzes every bounce.

Every Athlete

The Personalities

The Giant. The Firecracker. The Rocket. Each player brings a nickname, a walk-up song and a signature celebration.
