Overview
EN 1271:2014 - published by CEN - is the European standard that defines functional and safety requirements plus test methods for indoor and outdoor volleyball equipment. It applies to two equipment types (posts with ground sockets or floor/base fixings) and five equipment classes (A–E) covering top-level competition, club, practice/school and sitting volleyball. This standard is not applicable to beach volleyball and does not cover the umpire stand.
Key topics and requirements
- Classification and dimensions
- Two equipment types: Type 1 (with ground sockets/fixings) and Type 2 (with floor/base fixings).
- Five classes (A–E) for intended sport level (top competition, club, practice, and sitting variants).
- Net geometry and equipment dimensions are specified (e.g., net mesh for classes A, B and D is 100 mm × 100 mm).
- Materials and construction
- Posts: corrosion-resistant metals (hot‑galvanized, powder-coated, painted) or equivalent.
- Net: suitable fibres with a top net line of synthetic or corrosion‑resistant steel wire (plastic-coated acceptable).
- Antennae: glass-fibre reinforced plastics or equivalent; for classes A, B, D marked with contrasting 100 mm stripes.

In summary, the SIST EN 1271:2014 standard is an essential and robust framework that provides critical functional and safety guidelines for volleyball equipment. Its clear scope, detailed classifications, and thorough safety requirements make it a cornerstone reference for ensuring the safe and functional use of volleyball gear across various settings.
Die SIST EN 1271:2014 ist eine umfassende europäische Norm, die sich mit den funktionalen und sicherheitstechnischen Anforderungen an Volleyballausrüstung befasst. Diese Norm ist von großer Bedeutung für Hersteller und Betreiber von Sporteinrichtungen, da sie klare Richtlinien für die Sicherheit und Funktionalität von Volleyballgeräten bereitstellt. Der Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm umfasst zwei Typen und fünf Klassen von Volleyballausrüstungen, die sowohl für Innen- als auch für Außensportplätze konzipiert sind. Diese spezifische Differenzierung ermöglicht es den Herstellern, die Anforderungen gezielt für verschiedene Einsatzorte und Spielbedingungen zu erfüllen. Die Norm bietet somit einen klaren Rahmen, der auf die unterschiedlichen Bedürfnisse im Volleyballsport eingeht. Einer der Stärken der SIST EN 1271:2014 ist der detaillierte Überblick über die funktionalen Anforderungen (siehe Abschnitt 3), die gewährleisten, dass alle Geräte die nötige Leistungsfähigkeit bieten. Diese Anforderungen sind für die Nutzer von zentraler Bedeutung, da sie die Spielqualität direkt beeinflussen. Darüber hinaus behandelt die Norm die Sicherheitsanforderungen (siehe Abschnitt 4), die sicherstellen, dass beim Spielen vor Verletzungen geschützt wird. Die Priorisierung von Sicherheit ist besonders wichtig, um sowohl Amateur- als auch Profispielern ein sicheres Umfeld zu bieten. In Anbetracht der Tatsache, dass diese Norm nicht auf Beachvolleyball anwendbar ist, but rather sich auf herkömmliche Volleyballumgebungen konzentriert, wird ihre Relevanz in Indoor- und Outdoor-Aktivitäten für diverse Nutzungsbedingungen untermauert. Diese eingeschränkte Anwendbarkeit gewährleistet, dass die Norm spezialisierte und präzise Vorgaben für die überwiegende Mehrheit der Volleyballpraxis liefert. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass die SIST EN 1271:2014 eine wertvolle Ressource ist, die sicherstellt, dass Volleyballausrüstung sowohl leistungsfähig als auch sicher ist. Ihre umfassenden Anforderungen bieten Herstellern und Anwendern einen klaren Standard, um die Qualität und Sicherheit im Volleyballsport kontinuierlich zu verbessern.
SIST EN 1271:2014는 배구 장비에 대한 표준으로, 해당 문서는 훈련 및 경기 환경에서 사용할 수 있는 배구 장비의 기능적 요구사항과 안전 요구사항을 명확히 규정하고 있습니다. 이 표준은 실내외에서 사용되는 두 가지 유형과 다섯 가지 클래스의 배구 장비에 적용되며, 이를 통해 다양한 환경에서도 일관된 품질과 안전성을 보장합니다. 표준의 강점 중 하나는 명확한 기능적 요구사항을 포함하여, 배구 장비의 성능이 어떻게 측정되고 평가되어야 하는지를 구체적으로 설명하고 있다는 점입니다. 또한, 안전 요구사항을 철저히 규정함으로써 선수들의 안전을 최우선으로 고려하고 있습니다. 특히, 표준 문서의 제 3조와 제 4조에서 배구 장비의 필수 성능 및 안전개념을 깊이 있게 다루고 있어, 설계자와 제조업체가 제품의 안전성과 기능성을 보장하는 데 큰 도움이 됩니다. SIST EN 1271:2014는 비치 배구 장비에 대한 내용을 포함하지 않지만, 실내 및 실외 환경에서의 배구 경기에서 필요한 모든 장비에 대한 포괄적인 지침을 제공하여, 다양한 사용자 요구를 충족시키고 있습니다. 이 표준은 특히 경기의 공정성과 안전을 강화하는 데 중요한 역할을 하고 있으며, 배구 장비의 품질을 아우르는 명확한 기준을 제공하고 있습니다. 따라서, 배구 장비의 기능적 및 안전 요구사항을 규정한 SIST EN 1271:2014는 스포츠 장비의 설계 및 생산에 있어 필수적인 기준이자, 선수들과 사용자들에게 신뢰할 수 있는 환경을 제공하는 중요한 요소라 할 수 있습니다.
