Volleyball Background
Volleyball first started in 1895 in Holyoke, Massachusetts. This sport consits of six members on one team. It can be played indoors and outdoors. The purpose of the sport is to hit the volleyball onto the other team's side of the court without them hitting it back, giving them a point. A team can only hit the ball three times to get it over the net and only twice for a single person. For more information click on the link below:
Spike
A spike is when you jump up in the air to hit the ball towards the ground on the other side of the net. The other team puts up their hands to block the spike.
Set
When the volleyball is above your head players will hit it with a set. A set is when your hands form a diamond above your head and hit it up.
Bump
A bump is when you bend your knees and make contact with the ball with your forearms. You make a fist with one hand and the other hand wraps around it.
