Volleyball

usually, the first referee (aka the up ref or R1) must: * controll the court in all aspects * call ball handling (top priority) * monitor teams working and teams they're officiating * organize and carry out pre-gam captains meeting

Serving with the heal of your hand gives you the most control and hurts the least.

The USA Volleyball rulebook states that the official measurements are 3/8" in diameter and 5'11" tall.

The USA Volleyball rulebook specifies that the antennae should measure 5 feet and 11 inches tall and 3/8 of an inch in diameter.

In indoor volleyball, the ball has to be touched at least once, but never more than 3 times before it has to be returned over the net. However, in serve receive (after your opponent serves the ball and it is coming to your side) the ball has to be touched at least twice, and is the ideal time for the first set up.

try testing serving ways....try at least 10 people and that should help!

A team is allowed to touch an incoming ball three times, a block (even with multiple touches) not counted, ideally in this way: reception (typically bump), set (typically overhand pass) and attack (spike).

Common terms related to hitting the ball:

serve: the first hit, to enter the opponents' court side

bump: reception of a hard or low incoming ball, hit with both hands together

overhand pass: most common to "set" the ball for an attack, ball hit with the fingertips

spike: an attack hit with one hand, above the head

backspike: attack by a back-row player, behind the 3 m line

kill: a spike hit that scores a point, e.g. touching the opponents court

tandem: two hitters jump together to deceive the blockers

off-speed hit: fooling defence by changing hitting speed

block: stopping an incoming ball after a spike hit

roof: a block that directs the ball towards the hitters floor

block-abuse: light hit to opponents block, causing it to fly away

dig: receiving a ball close to the floor after a spike hit

hitter: a player specialised in spike attacks

blocker: a defensor standing opposite the hitter, blocking the attack

setter: passes the ball to the hitter in order to prepare a perfect attack

You can hit a "down" ball which means hitting it hard in a downward motion.

Or, you can "tip" ("dip") the ball which is usually used to mess us the defense on the other side, or to get the ball over the blocker on the other side. When you tip the ball, you are using the tips of yours fingers to move the ball either up above the blocker and over the net, or you are pushing it down with your finger tips as close to the net as possible.

But, if you want to hit a down ball, you need a good set from the setter, and usually players will tip the ball when they get a bad set.

Reece Gabrielle was a very famous volleyball player. Not only did she play volleyball, but her good looks led her into modeling which eventually formed into a TV personality. Karch Kiraly is another where he's won 144 times and won over $3.1million

A volleyball block is when one or two members of the front row, usually the middle and the right side or left side jump up, arms extended, to block a spike from the opposing team. The intended result is for the ball to hit the two blockers' palms and ricochet back to the other side of the court, instigating either a point for the blocking team or a scramble to somehow recover the ball for the spiking team. However, there are many instances in which the ball goes through or over the block, or the blockers aren't close enough to the net so the ball ricochets off the block but still comes down on the blockers' side. In college and professional volleyball, however, a block is an effective way to get a point, though it is often recovered by the other team.

The timer is used in Basketball. it doesn't matter how many points you score in a game. you just want to score more than your opponent before the buzzer sounds. (timer runs out)

Holding is a football term, not volleyball. The volleyball equivalent of a holding is a lift, which is when you lift the ball up or push it away instead of bumping, setting, blocking, or attacking.

Yes

A rally is the complete number of hits between each team. It is when the teams hit the ball back and forth without the ball touching the ground or a breach of the rules. A rally is over when a team messes up, and cannot legally keep the ball in play. Rally scoring is when the team wins the point, they also win the serve.

Well, as a volleyball player myself, I've had my share of rallies. (they're the BEST!) It starts pretty normally. When this system repeats for awhile, without the ball touching the ground, that's when you have a nice rally :)

Yes and no. I have known many girls who have still injured their ankles playing while wearing braces. However that could possibly be because of the brand or quality. I personally don't wear them.

The most important thing about a Volleyball dig is that you can get the ball from anywhere on the court by sliding on your knee's and also just by having a simple technique.

The best technique is to squat when you are under the ball with your legs shoulder width apart, like your sat on the toilet and bounce up when you have contact with the ball. weave your fingers between each other or clench two fist's and line your thumbs on top.

The best contact with the ball for a accurate dig would be just above your wrists.

I hope this helped :)

I am fairly certain that the origin of American football can be traced back to none other than Canton, Ohio; home of the Professional Football Hall of Fame.

Ohio is known for historically great football, Canton-Mckinley, Ohio State, and The Cleveland Browns to name a few.

46 million Americans Play volleyball. I don't know, but I can tell you that this American does! :)

get 25 points in one game (highschool) or 30 points in one game (college and above) if the score is above 25 (or 30) than the first team that scores two points in a row wins, last if a forfeit.

Here are the numbered sets in volleyball:

Outside Hits:

Four (4) - Set inside the antenna but still high.

Five (5) - Very high set past the antenna.

Middle Hits:

Two (2) - High set right in front of the setter.

One (1) - Very low set right in front of the setter.

Three (3) - Low set about three to four feet from the setter between Outside and Middle hitter spots.

Right Side Hits:

Nine (9) - High back set to almost to the antenna.

Six (6) - Lower back set more towards the inside of the antenna than a nine.

Back Hits:

Pike - A set to the middle back position

"A" - A set to the right back position.

"D" - A set to the left book position.

Two. (By the way if you clap your hands and say it like this: so-ccer you can hear the beat and get in other words to!) Glad To Help! :)

Normal play resumes until the coach of the injured player substitutes the injured player off the field. If the team of the injured player has already used up its substitutions, the player must play for the remainder of the match.

However, if the injured player is a Libero, the player can just switch with another person on the bench without a substitution

A rotation in Vollyball is when you win the point back and swap positions. I know that sounded wrong.

For example:

If you served the ball over the net, and they, of course, hit it back over and you missed, they'd win the point back and rotate in a clock-wise direction.

If they served it over, and you hit it back, but they let the vollyball drop, you'd win the point and rotate.

you will obviously need a volleyball! and a volleyball net is needed. It depends on whether the court is outside or inside. if the court is inside, a gym at a school will most likely already have the lines painted on the floor. If the court is outside, a wire/rope can be spiked into the ground creating the playing area.

Net height for women, boys 14 and younger, and reversed mixed: 7 feet, 4-1/8 inches
