They are always back row and they always get the deep balls.They have to have a lot of control because they usually hit it when the other team spikes the ball deep (so they have to get it to their setter) and she/he gets it when someone else on their team shanks it. They usually get most of the serves. They have to be a good judge of whether the ball is out or not from the other team.

How long is a volley ball game?

"Game" can refer to a volleyball set, or to the whole match.

Volleyball sets are normally played to 25 points (30 in some mens' tournaments). Whoever reaches to 25 first, but by a point difference of 2, wins. A set can thus be extended, i.e. it may finish 33-31. A match is played best of 5 sets, i.e. 3 sets must be won, or especially with youth, best of 3 sets. When a last, decisive set is needed (fifth/third) it is played until 15 points. When time is an issue, a set may start on 7-7 or 10-10 to shorten the game.

The length of a match in time depends highly on the difference in skill between both teams. A short match might be played in 30 min, but a match between two equal opponents can take more than 90 min. Tie-break issues are resolved by scoring on every ball, not only balls by own serve as before 1999.

In tournements playing "best of 3", 45 min is often allocated for each match, and it usually works out in the end.

Between sets, a 3 min rest is allowed (often 10 min "half-time pause" before set 3), and two 30 sec time-outs per team and set are allowed. If a match must be interrupted, it should be continued later counting the finished set, and starting interrupted set from 0-0. In cases even from 0-0 in set.

Where does a middle back volleyball player go after serving?

The positions go from 1-6 in a counter clockwise position, starting 1 at serving position in right back. However, you rotate in a clockwise direction (confusing I know!). So from serving, you rotate to middle back, then to left back, then to left front, to middle front, to right front, and back to right back where you serve again. I hope this helps!
