How many divisions are in the NCAA?
There are three divisions, Division I, Division II and Division III.
Not all divisions sponsor all sports. For instance, ice hockey is not sponsored by the NCAA in Division II. Member institutions at the Division II level who sponsor the sport participate at the Division I or Division III level.
Division I is also subdivided in the sport of football. Previously known as Division I-A and Division I-AA, the subdivisions are now referred to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) and Football Championship Subdivision (FCS, respectively.
The two major differences between the subdivisions are scholarship levels (FBS allows a total of 85 players to receive any level of scholarship while the FCS allows 63 full scholarship equivalents that may be divided between more than 63 players) and championship sponsorship. In the FBS, the NCAA does not sponsor a championship. For instance, Florida State won the "national championship" following the 2013 season, but Florida State is not "NCAA champions" in football. In the FCS, the NCAA sponsors a tournament to determine the national champion. Following the 2013 season, North Dakota State won the tournament and can claim both the title of "national champion" and "NCAA champion."

It can really tire you out and you would be surprised how much energy it takes to play. Another thing is that it is very strategic. You need to plot every move of the other team, so you can know where the server is going to send it, when the spikes are coming so you can block them, and you need to work together as a team because the stakes are very high! All in all, volleyball is awesome!!

What does an official use to start a volleyball game?
The line judge's job is to backup the referee. if the ball is in or out and if there is a foot fault (that's my job on the Blizzards.
The up refs job is to tell the players when to serve.
The down refs job is to tell the up reff when there is a game point, when the scorers are ready to start the game, and what the team captains are.
The scorers keep the scores, timeouts, captains, foot faults, fouls and all.
On average how many times does a volleyball player jump in a match?
When serving, the server can only serve once. If the player misses the ball, the ball goes out of bounce or any mistake like that, it's automatically the other opponents turn.
But if you're talking about during the game play, one single player can only touch the volleyball once, a double-tap would be called by the ref and the other team would get the point and be handed the ball.
