Lesson/Topic:  Volleyball, game played by two teams, usually of six players on a side, in which the players use their hands to bat a
ball back and forth over a high net, trying to make the ball touch the court within the opponents’ playing area before

TERMINOLOGIES, touches the court surface—that teammate may then volley it back across the net or bat it to a third teammate who
FACILITIES AND volleys it across the net. A team is allowed only three touches of the ball before it must be returned over the net.
EQUIPMENT  History, Volleyball was invented in 1895 by William G. Morgan, physical director of the Young Men’s Christian
Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Massachusetts. It was designed as an indoor sport for businessmen who found the
new game of basketball too vigorous. Morgan called the sport “mintonette,” until a professor from Springfield
College in Massachusetts noted the volleying nature of play and proposed the name of “volleyball.” The original rules
were written by Morgan and printed in the first edition of the Official Handbook of the Athletic League of the Young
Men’s Christian Associations of North America (1897). The game soon proved to have wide appeal for both sexes in
schools, playgrounds, the armed forces, and other organizations in the United States, and it was subsequently
introduced to other countries.
 Basic Volleyball Terminologies
ACE: A serve that no player of the opposition team touches before it hits the ground. It results in a point for the server.
ASSIST: Setting the ball up for a teammate who attacks the ball and then scores a point. An assist is counted only if the
very next shot results in a point.
ATTACK: The act of actually approaching the volleyball and hitting it, in order to gain a point.
ATTACKER: The person who attacks the ball. Also known as the HITTER or the SPIKER.
ATTACK LINE: Also known as the ’10 foot line’, it is 3 meters away from the net and is present on both sides of the court.
BACK ROW ATTACK: A move where a player behind the attack line hits the ball. At the moment when he jumps to hit the
ball he must be behind the attack line.
BLOCK: An action where a spiker’s move is deflected back into his court by blocking the ball.
BALL HANDLING ERROR: The referee may call this error, if he notices that there has been a double hit, or a ball is thrown
or lifted.
BUMP PASS: The action of clasping one’s fingers together and using the forearms to hit pass the ball to a teammate or
over the net.
CENTER LINE: The line under the net that divides the entire court into 2 equal parts.
DECOY: A move in which the actual spiker of the ball is disguised. This takes the opposing team by surprise.
DIG: The act of reaching a ball spiked by the opponents and passing it to a teammate.
DOUBLE HIT: An illegal move that implies that the same player has touched the ball twice in succession.
FLOATER: A serve that has often been mis-hit and its direction cannot be predicted as there is no spin or rotation on the
ball.
FOUL: Any illegal violation of the rules.
HIT: Act of jumping up and forcefully ‘spiking’ or hitting the ball to the opposing court.
JUMP SERVE: A method of service where the ball is flung in the air and the server jumps to strike it.
KILL: A move or a strike that results in the gaining of a point.
MINTONETTE: This is what volleyball was officially known as earlier. The name was created by William Morgan.
READY POSITION: The position and stance that any player takes just before hitting the ball.
RED CARD: A disqualification by the referee. This implies that either a player must leave the game, the team forfeits a
point, or a team forfeits a serve.
ROTATION: After a server has made his serve, all the players rotate in a clockwise movement.
SERVE: The game starts when one player serves the ball from the end line of his side of the court, into the opposing teams
half.
SERVICE ERROR: A wrong service. This occurs when the service hits the net, or does not cross the net, or the ball falls out-
of-bounds or the server’s foot crosses the line while serving.
SETTER: The person who has the crucial second touch of the ball. The third touch will be by a spiker, and the setter must
set up the ball in a nice way for the spiker. He is one of the most important offensive players in a volleyball team.
SIDE OUT: A situation where the receiving team wins the right to serve. This occurs either because they have won a point,
or because the serving team committed an error.
YELLOW CARD: A warning issued to any player. This does not accompany a loss

 Volleyball Rules
 Here are the fundamental, must-know rules of a volleyball game:
 Only 6 players on the floor at any given time: 3 in the front row and 3 in the back row.
 Points are made on every serve for the winning team of the rally (rally-point scoring).
 Players may not hit the ball twice in succession (a block is not considered a hit).
 Ball may be played off the net during a volley and on a serve.
 A ball hitting a boundary line is in.
 A ball is out if it hits an antennae, the floor completely outside the court, any of the net or cables outside the
antennae, the referee stand or pole, or the ceiling above a non-playable area.
 It is legal to contact the ball with any part of a player’s body.
 It is illegal to catch, hold or throw the ball.
 A player cannot block or attack a serve from on or inside the 10-foot line.
 After the serve, front-line players may switch positions at the net.
 Matches are made up of sets; the number depends on level of play.
 Volleyball Rule Violations
 Committing any of these volleyball rule violations results in a point for the opponent.
 Stepping on or across the service line when serving while making contact with the ball.
 Failure to serve the ball over the net successfully.
  Ball-handling errors and contacting the ball illegally (double touching, lifting, carrying, throwing, etc.)
 Touching the net with any part of the body while the ball is in play.
 Blocking a ball coming from the opponent’s court and contacting the ball when reaching over the net if your
opponent has not used 3 contacts AND has a player there to make a play on the ball.
 Attacking a ball coming from the opponent’s court and contacting the ball when reaching over the net when the
ball has not yet broken the vertical plane of the net.
 Crossing the court centerline with any part of your body, with the exception of a hand or foot. It is only
considered a violation if the entire hand or entire foot crosses the court centerline.
 Serving out of rotation or out of order.
 Back row player blocking (deflecting a ball coming from the opponent) when, at the moment of contact, the
back row player is near the net and has part of their body above the top of the net. This is an illegal block.
 Back row player attacking a ball inside the front zone (the area inside the 3M/10-foot line) when, at the
moment of contact, the ball is completely above the net. This is an illegal attack.

Lesson/Topic: 1. Forearm Passing or Bumping
By far one of the most basic skills in volleyball is passing, also known as bumping. This is when a player contacts the
 VOLLEYBALL volleyball with their forearms and redirects the ball to one of their teammates.
 Forearm  A good defensive stance when waiting to pass the ball is to have bent knees, body leaning forward at the waist
with the weight of the body slightly forward, and arms bent out in front but hands not clasped together. This
Passing or position makes it easier to move towards the ball. Try running with your hands clasped in front of you – not
very natural, is it?
Bumping Don’t just swing your arms at the ball – aim your pass by point your hands and shoulders in the direction you’d like the ball
 Volleying to go.
2. Volleying
 Setting
Many beginners think a volley and a set are the same thing, but they are actually two different terms. A volley is a more
 Attacking/ generic term that means contacting the ball as an overhead pass with your hands (mostly your fingers). A set is actually a
Spiking type of volley.
A volley can be used on your own side of the court, or it can be used as an offensive way of getting the ball back over the

Page 3 of 7
  Diving net. A set, on the other hand, is generally a pass between players on the same team. Setting the other team happens
occasionally as an error, but really, you want to try to avoid setting up the other team to hit the ball back at you!
 Blocking  Put your hands up over your head, with your index fingers almost touching your forehead and your thumbs and
 Serving index fingers shaping into almost a diamond – that’s the starting point for an overhead pass. Don’t contact the
ball with your arms fully extended, otherwise the only strength you’ll have behind your volley will be from your
wrists. You’ll want to bend your arms, as well as your knees, and extend them both as you’re contacting the
ball. Now you can actually get some distance to your volley!
3. Setting
A set is a specialized type of volley. It’s usually the second hit, and it’s intended to set up one of your teammates to attack
the ball. So, it’s basically volleying the ball in a way that means the attacker can hit the ball over the net. The difference
between a set and a regular volley is that you are aiming your set in a very specific way. Getting it on target is the most
important factor when setting the ball. You’ll also need to volley it high enough that the hitter has time to do their full
approach. But not so high that they’re just waiting and waiting… which also give the blockers on the other team lots of
time to get in place!
A good set is actually about a foot away from the net. This gives the hitter enough room to follow through with their whole
arm swing, and gives them enough room to land without touching the net.
4. Attacking
Hitting or spiking is when a player jumps up and hits the ball with a one-armed overhead swinging motion, contacting the
ball squarely with their slightly open hand. The intent of a hit is pure power – jumping helps generate more power and
momentum. A skilled player also aims the ball around the block and targets the area of the opposing team’s playing area
that they think has the weakest defense coverage.
 The basic technique for delivering a hit actually begins with your feet, known as the hitting approach. Start by
taking a big step with your non-dominate foot (for right-handed hitters, this is usually your left foot), then a big
second step with your right foot. Then, plant your left foot beside your right foot, and jump. Taking those first
two big steps helps give your jump more power and height.
5. Diving
Diving is basically crashing to the floor in an all-out attempt to keep the ball from touching the floor. Okay, it’s not really
about crashing to the floor… using a good technique will not only help you save your body some aches and pains, but using
some skill and coordination means you have a better chance of actually keeping the ball in play.
 To break it down in slow motion, you basically forearm pass the ball, then commit to hitting the floor by
bringing the side of your knee down to the floor (most likely your dominate side), followed by the side of your
hip, then your chest. You want to avoid all parts of your body hitting the floor simultaneously, as this causes the
most amount of impact (and pain!)
6. Blocking
Probably one of the most straight-forward named skills, a block is a defensive play when a player jumps at the net to block
the hit from coming onto their team’s side of the net. The key secret to blocking is timing.
 There are, of course, other factors related to a great block. You want to keep your fingers splayed as wide as
possible to cover as much space as you can. And since the hitter is trying their hardest to hit around or above
your block, you want to keep an eye on their shoulder to try to determine where they’re aiming. This way you
can adjust your hands to put them in front of the ball more accurately.
7. Serving
Every play in volleyball starts with a serve. Serving is the only time in the game that you start with full control of the ball.
This is why you’ll often see a lot of strategy used by servers. A player can choose to serve over or underhand. An
underhand serve is often seen as more of a beginner or recreational type of serve; however, I’ve seen some pretty
aggressive underhand serves. There are many different techniques and strategies for each, so it’s really about which the
player prefers. Factors related to a good serve include targeting, speed, and spin. A good server takes a second or two to
identify any areas of weakness in the opposing side’s serve receive setup, and then targets their serve to that area of
weakness.
 Obviously the faster a ball travels from a serve, the harder it is for the other team to react to. The trick to
serving a ball fast is your arm swing when you contact the ball. Whether you’re serving over or underhand,
remember to follow through with your swing, even after you’ve contacted the ball. This gives your swing a little
more speed.

Lesson/Topic: OFFICIATING
 VOLLEYBALL OFFICIATING A sport officiating is that phase of competitive sports management which deals directly with the
 QUALITIES OF proper conduct of the game. Its primary function is to cause the game to progress with as little
GAME OFFICIALS interference as possible. It also allows the officials to judge infractions in a correct manner.
 OFFICIATING QUALITIES OF GAME OFFICIALS
VOLLEYBALL 1. They should possess knowledge of the rules of the games. The approved body of rule is the
GAMES basis for their decision. The officials should know the rules thoroughly and the intention or the
spirit behind them.
2. They should be equipped with first-hand experience in the games. Having played the games is a
great factor. Participation provides the officials a better understanding of the fundamentals and
strategies and the practical applications of the rules in actual game situations. This will enable
them to anticipate and follow the participants and the game situations more closely.
3. The officials should be physically fit enable them to:
 be where they should be
 maintain their alertness and good judgement
 hold up their end of the teamwork with their fellow officials
