We calculate the virtually cyclic dimension of the mapping class group of a sphere with at most six punctures. As an immediate consequence, we obtain the virtually cyclic dimension of the mapping class group of the twice-holed torus and of the closed genus-two surface.

For spheres with an arbitrary number of punctures, we give a new upper bound for the virtually cyclic dimension of their mapping class group, improving the recent bound of Degrijse and Petrosyan (2015).
