Image Description: This first referee looks like he is in mid-blow of his whistle on the volleyball court. It is the first official who starts the play by blowing the whistle and signaling the starter to serve the ball. The first referee stands on a raised platform at net level across from the team benches, with different referees often subbing during games. It is important for the first and second officials to decide before the game which calls the second official can make, but the second referee is usually responsible for centerline and net violations, and server and serving order faults, but the first official is responsible for whistling any and all faults they see.
