Volleyball Fundamentals
- You have six players on the court.
- You have a total of three touches.
- You can't hit it twice in a row.
Some Rules!
There are three people in the front and three people in the back. The person on the right side serves first. They are in the number one spot. Everyone has to work together to accomplish three hits and to win the point. Not only can women play but men can also play. Most of the rules are the same.
Positions
Libero
They play only back row. They are specialized in passing the ball. They have to best footwork and lead their team in passing. They are the best. They are constantly on the ground diving for balls. They usually have bruises all over.
Setter
They have the second ball unless they call help. They set the ball so the hitter can get a kill. If the hitter gets the kill the setter gets an assist. The setter needs a perfect pass from the passer to be able to set the ball up.
Hitter
They get the third touch. There are left side hitters, middle hitters, and right side hitters. Most middle hitters don't pass the ball. Once they take their approach that ball is going down hard.
Always Having Fun!
Love the Game.
This is a very fun sport to play. Everyone loves to be able to jump and hit the ball down, slide on the floor to get a ball, and set the ball and feel in control of the game. But most importantly this team becomes your family and you stick together.
Volleyball
In this sport you need speed, endurance, strength, balance, vertical, and most importantly heart.
