Basic Skills

of
Volleyball:
 The Serve
Title
• The volleyball serve is the first opportunity for a
player to score a point.

• Once the referee blows the whistle to start the rally

you have 8 seconds to complete your serve routine
and get the ball over the net.

• Once you toss the ball in the air you must contact
the ball to send it over the net or let the ball drop
without touching it again until it hits the floor first.

• If you let the ball drop to the floor, the referee will
blow the whistle again and this time you have five
seconds to serve the ball over the net.
 Passing

the forearm pass is a service reception
technique used to contact a ball that's entered
your court area when your team is on offense.

 Digging
Title
The dig is a slang term used to describe an
underhand technique made on the first contact of a
ball in a rally that's been sent over the net with an
attack hit.

You sink your hips low to the floor, below the

ball before it gets to you and you use your extended
arms clasped at the wrists to create a platform with
your forearms to "dig" or deflect the ball up in the air.

If you are the 'digger" or defender your job is to

dig the ball up high enough in the air and ideally to the
middle of the court close to the ten foot line, so that the
second contact in the rally can be made.
