Volleyball

Yes. Hitting a volleyball with the palm of your hand is called spiking, hitting, or attacking the ball. It is when you do an approach, jump up, and hit the volleyball over the net to the other side of the court.

Well if your asking how much is the time that volleball lasts, IT HAS NO TIME! It is the first team to get to 25 points on 11-12 categories and up and 21 points from 1-2 categories until 9-10( talking about age) so yeah volleyball has no time :)hope this helped :D

It was invented in 1895 by a YMCA teacher, William G Morgan, in Massachusetts, USA.

With the same intention as basketball invented there a llittle earlier, he aspired a spectacular, physically demanding, non-violent team sport for the indoor sport season. He was also inspired by handball, baseball and tennis.

Initially it was called Mintonette, but renamed to Volleyball in 1896.

It has spawned many varieties, like Beach Volleyball from California, USA and Footvolley from Brazil, especially for outdoor playing. Kidsvolley and Volley 2000, are adapted to young players, allowing a ground bounce, very popular in Northern Europe. In the Netherlands "sitting volleyball" was created for disabled persons.

The modern Volleyball rules have evolved around the world, especially in 1900-1930, with the number of players, spiking and scoring.

Faustball has many similarities with volleyball, and was known in Europe already in the 16th century.

You change courts in volleyball when someone finishes the first set!! each set goes up to 25. and if the same team doesn't win both first sets you play a 3rd set which goes to 15. but before you play that set your team switches sides again.

A typical volleyball nets' height, can be anywhere from 5 feet to 5 and a half feet tall- FOR WOMEN. A typical volleyball nets' height for MEN would be about 6 to 6 and a half feet tall. It could be anywhere from 25 feet to 30 feet wide. (across)

A bump pass is when a player stretches their arms out in front of them and puts their hands together, one hand on top of the other, and thumbs next to each other. When a volleyball is thrown or hit, you use your forearms, just above your wrist, also known as your platform, to pass the volleyball up in the air.

Well if you bump the ball and it hits the ceiling and comes back to your side you can hit it and it can be fair but if you bump the ball and it hits the ceiling and goes to the other side that is a point for the other team.

no. if you touch the net the other team gets a point, and when the other team is serving you have to be in the court but after the ball is served you can step on and over it

In order to put in a substitute, two players must approach the area in front of the ten foot line, one from the court and one from the bench. The down referee tells the scorekeeper the change and then allows the substitution to be made.

Volleyball games are not measured in minutes, but in points and sets. But, a five-set game, with sets going to 25 points and then a final set of 15 points, will usually last for about an hour to an hour and a half.

Yes, 6th graders should definatley play sports only meant for 7th and 8th graders. Whats the big deal? Soon they will get faced with a bigger challenge in sports and this will help prepare them for it. Also the school can make more money from the games

Ideally, you want to get three hits. That is your limit. First, you want a controlled pass, either a bump or a set. Then your setter should move to the ball and set in 1 of 4 positions. Your setter should be off to the right side, up top. She should set to the far left top, the middle top, behind her (the right), or she could set any one in the back row if they are capable of a back row hit. The third step is your attempt to stop the rally. Your player either hits its (open palm) or they can tip it (a small push with the fingertips if the ball is really tight to the net). If the set is bad a free ball, (a bump over the net), is useful also, another set just to push it over the net works well but you have to have force.

You always ideally want to get the ball to your setter on the second hit. That way the setter can push the ball out to one of the hitters in hope of a kill. The setter should be standing at the top right of the court so that they can set both the outside left and the middle. The setter is the person you always want to give the second hit to. The setter should stand at the top right of the court, to the right of the middle and outside hitter. When they get a good pass they should set it either to the outside, middle, behind them, or in the back row if it is not really a good pass.

On a court playing, there must be 6 players. Depending on a team, you can have as many as you want, but it's hard to make substitutions with so many players. If you were a coach you would most likely want 10 players, to be on the safe side in case of injuries.

Inertia is an object's tendency to remain unchanged. Mass is one of the factors that determines an object's inertia. Obviously, a bowling ball is much heavier than a basketball, therefore harder to move by an external force.

Soccer. I know because I play both of these sports.

You should jump straight up when blocking in volleyball, so you don't end up jumping into the net. However when hitting, sometimes it is good to allow room to jump forward a bit to propel the ball forward and down.

I would have to say currently as of 2008 it would be the USA. Since they dominated both indoor and outdoor volleyball in both men's and women's divisions.

refers to whether the player strikes the ball at waist level, or first tosses the ball in the air and then hits it above shoulder level

Bump pass

Hitting, jumping, and sliding. I'm not sure on the last one but I'm pretty sure.

Volleyball is a complex game of simple skills. A purely rebound sport (you can't hold the ball), volleyball is a game of constant motion. A team can touch the ball three times on its side of the net. The usual pattern is a dig (an underarm pass made with the forearms) followed by a set (an overhead pass made with the hands) and followed by a spike (the overhead attacking shot). The ball is served into play. Teams can also try to block the opponent's spike as it crosses the net.

No. The serve should be returned by three different plays - that would be a dig (usually from the back row), then a set (by the setter), then the hit. A serve cannot be blocked. Once the serve is returned then the blocking may begin.

A volleyball hitter is usually positioned in the front row of the rotation. Also, possibly known as the blocker when playing defense the hitter's job is to jump in front of the opposing team's spike or tip to try and stop it from coming over onto their side of the court. When playing offense the hitter's job is to spike the ball to the other side of the court after it has been set up by the setter.

An ace is when Team 1 serves the ball and Team 2 is unable to return it. It hits the floor without anyone on Team 2 touching it.

Incorrect.. The real answer is when one team serves over the net and it cannot be returned regardless of the receiving team touching it or not. :)
