volleyball

volleyball
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 it can be returned
 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.”
POSITION IN
VOLLEYBALL
setter
The main offensive producer on the volleyball
team is the setter. The setter needs to be
sensitive in touch in order to set the ball
effectively for an attacking player.
Communication is essential because the setter
has to work with the other players to get
everyone on the same page. Without the
setter, there would be no hard spikes or
technical ball movement
outside Hitter
The outside hitter in the offensive plan is the
outside hitter, sometimes referred to as the
left-side batter. A effective outside hitter must
to be able to jump high, move quickly, and
adjust to various circumstances. They must be
ready for hits from a range of locations
because the outside hitter won't always place
the volleyball where they would like
opposite hitter
Often referred to as right-side hitters, these
players must possess the ideal mix of
offensive and defensive skills. They will also
have several of chances to hit the volleyball,
therefore much like an outside hitter, they
must be able to jump. The opposing hitter is
distinguished mostly by their defensive
accountability. Among the various
qualifications for this particular role is the
ability to receive the serve from the other
team
 the middle
blocker
The tallest player on the volleyball team is the
middle blocker, also referred to as the middle
hitter. Being the team's first line of defense
against the hits of the opposition is their
primary responsibility. In order to promptly lift
his or her arms over the net in an attempt to
block, the middle blocker must read the
attackers on the other team. But this is more
than just a defensive posture. Throughout the
set, the middle blocker will have opportunities
for fast points.
 libero
It can be confusing for non-volleyball players
to understand the libero. Since they are
limited to playing in the back row of the court,
they are the perfect target for a hit from the
opposing team. The libero must abide by a
number of regulations, including avoiding
attacking the ball at the net and playing a set
for an attacker from the front. A libero's jersey
is always distinct from the rest of the team's,
so you can always tell them apart
 equipment
Volleyball requires a minimum of equipment and space
and can be played indoors or outdoors. The game is
played on a smooth-surfaced court 9 metres (30 feet)
wide by 18 metres (60 feet) long, divided by a centre line
into two equal areas, one of which is selected by or
assigned to each of the two competing teams
regular size of ball
A regulation volleyball should be 65-67
centimeters in circumference and weigh
260-280 grams (9-10 oz
Court diameter
Volleyball courts are regulated at 59’ (18
m) in length with a width of 29.5' (9 m).
Attack lines dividing the front and back
rows are marked 9’10” (3 m) parallel to
the net. Free zones at a minimum of
9’10” (3 m) are required around the
entirety of the court with generous
clearances up to 16’5” (5 m) on the sides
and 21’4” (6.5 m) in the back
11 violation in
volleyball

contact with the net
Contact with the net is only a fault if contact is made
during the action of playing the ball or if it interferes
with play
 blocking within the
opponents
A blocker may place his/her hands beyond the net provided
this action doesn't interfere with the opponents play. It's legal
to block beyond the net, provided...

The ball would have crossed the net if not touched by a player
and no member of the attacking team was in position to make
a play.
The ball is falling near the net and no member of the attacking
team is in position to make a play.
 attacking faults
A back row player completes an attack hit from the front zone,
if at the moment of contact, the ball is entirely above the top of
the net.

An opponent completes an attack hit on a served ball, when

the ball is in the front zone and the ball is entirely above the
top of the net.

The libero completes an attack hit, if at the moment of contact,

the ball is entirely above the top of the net
violation card
 yellow card violation
receiving a yellow card is the second stage
of a formal warning for a player(s)/coach
for minor misconduct, the first being a
verbal one given through the team captain.
 red card violation
a red card can be issued by the referee for
the first instance of Rude Conduct. It is
recorded on the scoresheet and results in
loss of service (if applicable) and a penalty
point to the opposition.
6 basic skills
in volleyball
 serving
.In a volleyball match, the serve is the first point of contact and a crucial
chance to get an advantage over the other team. Every player needs to
be proficient in this technique since it can both stop your opponent's
momentum and give your team the upper hand

There are several kinds of serves, including the jump serve, the overhand
serve, and the underhand serve. A few more sophisticated serves serves
include the floater and the topspin. No matter which type of serve you decide
to do, the key to a good serve is accuracy and consistency, which requires
practice to master.
 passing
Also known as the bump, is used to receive the ball from
the opposing team's serve or hit. The goal of passing is to
keep the ball in play and set up an offensive play. To pass
effectively, the player should get in position, keep their
arms straight and feet parallel, extend their knees forward,
and make contact with the ball using their forearms.
 setting
Setting or overhead passing is the most important
step in an offensive play as it determines which
player gets to spike or attack. This is normally done
by the team’s setter and is the second step in the
pass-set-spike sequence
 attacking
Attacking, also known as hitting, is the final step in the pass-set-
spike sequence and is used to score points. There are a variety
of different ways to attack a ball, but the most common and
consistently effective way to do so is by spiking. Spiking is a
combination of jumping with powerful arm swings in order to
smash the ball onto the opponent’s side of the court.
 blocking
Blocking is a defensive skill used to stop the opposing team's
attack and can also be used to potentially score points. Blockers
must focus on stopping the opposing team’s offensive attacks,
while also paying attention to the opposing setter so that they
can better predict the opposing team’s attack strategy. It is
important for blockers to be able to react to an attack quickly
and be in position before the attack is completed
 digging
Digging is a defensive skill used to save the ball from hitting the
ground. It is often done when the ball does not come directly at the
player, and a standard underhand pass would be impossible or
extremely difficult to get. To get into a digging position, the player
must sink their hips low to the floor with their heels slightly raised
in order to be light on their feet. They must then stretch out their
arms into the underhand pass position. In order to dig for the ball,
the player must push off their toes and use their lower body to
move their upper body. Players must also be ready to dive for the
ball, but that’s often not necessary if you’re already positioned to
where the ball might be going.
 scoring system in
volleyball
Matches are played best of five sets. The first four sets
are played to 25 points, with the final set being played to
15 points. A team must win a set by two points. There is
no ceiling, so a set continues until one of the teams
gains a two-point advantage
