COURT POSITIONS
Basics of volleyball positions on the
court
There are three players in each zone.
• Front row players are players who are allowed to
block the opponent and attack the ball in the attack
zone.
• Back row players are players who play defense by
digging the opponent’s attacks and attacking the ball
behind the attack line (3-meter line, 10 feet line).
• Players are rotating clockwise on the court after
winning the rally after the opponent’s serve.

Setters
• They aim for the second touch and their main
responsibility is to place the ball in the air where
the attackers can place the ball into the opponent’s
court for a point. Setters need to have a swift and
skillful appraisal and tactical accuracy and must be
quick at moving around the court.
