    The objective in volleyball is to keep the ball from striking the floor on your
    side of the net and return it so that it strikes the floor on your opponents
    side, before they can return it.

    Play
    The ball is put into play by the right back position (1) from behind
    the rear boundary line using either an underhand or overhand serve.
    The serve must go over the net within the court boundaries on the
    other side. A serve that hits the net and still goes over to the other side
    is a good serve and referred to as a let serve.
    The ball can only be played with 3 touches, per team, per play, and
    then must be sent over the net. The ball can go over the net with less
    then 3 touches without penalty.
    The ball may not be hit 2 times in a row by any one player.
    Only front row players are allowed to contact the ball above the net
    with intention to attack. However, a back row player may attack the
    ball upon the net if they are behind the 10 ft. line.
    If the serving team loses the serve (ball lands on their own side or ball
    is hit out of bounds), the other team obtains service and a point. This
    is called a side out/point.
    A ball that lands on the boundary line is considered in.
    For every side out made, the team that is awarded the serve must
    rotate in a clockwise manner.
    If the ball hits the ceiling and goes over the net, it is a dead ball. If the
    ball hits the ceiling and falls back onto the original side, it is playable
    if there are still hits available.
    In rally scoring, a point is awarded at the end of every play no matter
    who is serving.
    Each game is played to 25 points and the winning team must win by at
    least 2 points.
    The match is a best of 5 contest.



    Court and equipment
    The court is 60 ft. long and 30 ft. wide
    The boundary lines are 2 inches wide.
    A 4 inch line divides the court at 30 ft.

    Volleyball Terminology
    1. Block: Defensive play by the player(s) in the front row who place
    their hands and arms above the net so that a spiked ball rebounds into
    the opponents court.
    2. Pass: The forearm pass made on balls below the waist.
    3. Game Point: The last point in any game.
    4. Set: The overhead pass using the fingertips of an open hand
    5. Rotation: The shifting of players, clockwise, just before a new person
    serves.
    6. Attack: An approach to the net, a vertical jump, and a forceful hit of
    the ball down onto the opponents court.
    7. Touch: When a player attempts to block the ball unsuccessfully and it
    continues onto their own side of the court. This does not count as one
    of the 3 hits allowed per side.
    8. Tip: Attempting to trick the defense by dumping the ball right over
    the net.
    9. Defensive specialist (DS): A player who only plays in the back row.
    10. Libero: A DS that wears a different color jersey from the rest of the
    team that can enter the back row ONLY for any player throughout the
    game. This does not count against the teams substitution count.
    11. Substitution: At a dead ball opportunity, the coach signals the
    referee that he/she would like to make a player change. In volleyball,
    once a player subs in for another player, they cannot return in the
    game for a different player. A total of 18 substitutions are allowed per
    game.
