Best Answer

The 10ft line is commonly known as the attack line. This line separates back court from front court. No back court player may be in the front court and attack the ball when it is completely above the net. They may jump from behind this line as long as no part of their foot is in contact with the line and attack the ball.

If you are playing same sex (ie. men's or women's) then no there is not. However, if you are playing a coed format where there are men and women both playing on the same team, then yes, a 10 foot line may be used for the men to hit behind on a women's height net.

It is a line that is 10 feet from the net. It is a marker for where backrow players can hit from. They cannot cross the plane of the net when they are past the ten foot line
