Volleyball is a fast-paced, team-oriented sport that is typically played indoors but can also be played on sand. The objective of the game is to score points by hitting the ball over the net and into the opponent's court without letting it touch the ground on their own side, while also preventing the opposing team from doing the same. A team is allowed up to three touches to return the ball over the net, with the most common sequence of play being a bump (forearm pass), set (overhead pass), and spike (attack). The game is played in sets, with each set typically played to 25 points (rally scoring), and teams must win by a margin of two points. If a match goes to a deciding set, it is usually played to 15 points. Each team rotates positions clockwise after winning a rally and gaining the right to serve.
(2) Rules and Regulations in Volleyball:
Volleyball is governed by a set of rules and regulations established by the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) and other national or regional governing bodies. Some of the key rules and regulations in volleyball include:
a) Serving: The server must stand behind the end line and serve the ball over the net into the opponent's court. The server has one attempt, and if the serve goes out of bounds or results in a violation, it is considered a fault, and the opposing team earns a point and the right to serve.
b) Rotations: Players must rotate positions clockwise after winning a rally and gaining the right to serve. Each player must take turns serving, and players must maintain their rotational order throughout the set.
c) Three touches: A team is allowed up to three touches (in addition to the block) to return the ball over the net. The most common sequence of play is a bump (forearm pass), set (overhead pass), and spike (attack). No player can hit the ball twice consecutively, except for a block.
d) Attack lines: There are attack lines on the court that mark the limit for front-row players to attack. Back-row players are not allowed to attack in front of the attack line, except under specific circumstances.
e) Net play: Players are not allowed to touch the net with any part of their body or clothes while the ball is in play, and they are not allowed to interfere with an opponent's attempt to play the ball across the net.
f) Violations: Violations, such as illegal hits, carrying, double hits, foot faults, net violations, and antenna violations, result in a point or side-out for the opposing team.
g) Substitutions: Teams are allowed a limited number of substitutions per set, and substitutions must occur within specific substitution zones on the court.
h) Scoring: Points are awarded for winning rallies, and the team that reaches the set point total first with a margin of two points wins the set. If a match goes to a deciding set, it is typically played to 15 points.
These are just some of the basic rules and regulations in volleyball, and there may be additional rules depending on the level of play, competition rules, and specific league or tournament regulations. It's important for players, coaches, and officials to thoroughly understand and follow these rules to ensure fair play and a successful game.
1. Gameplay is the specific way in which players interact with a game, and in particular with video games. Gameplay is the pattern defined through the game rules, connection between player and the game, challenges and overcoming them, plot and player's connection with it. Video game gameplay is distinct from graphics and audio elements. In card games, the equivalent term is play.
2. Here are the fundamental, must-know rules of a volleyball game:
Only 6 players on the floor at any given time: 3 in the front row and 3 in the back row.
Points are made on every serve for the winning team of the rally (rally-point scoring).
Players may not hit the ball twice in succession (a block is not considered a hit).
Ball may be played off the net during a volley and on a serve.
A ball hitting a boundary line is in.
A ball is out if it hits an antennae, the floor completely outside the court, any of the net or cables outside the antennae, the referee stand or pole, or the ceiling above a non-playable area.
It is legal to contact the ball with any part of a player’s body.
It is illegal to catch, hold or throw the ball.
A player cannot block or attack a serve from on or inside the 10-foot line.
After the serve, front-line players may switch positions at the net.
Matches are made up of sets; the number depends on level of play.
Committing any of these volleyball rule violations results in a point for the opponent.
Stepping on or across the service line when serving while making contact with the ball.
Failure to serve the ball over the net successfully.
Ball-handling errors and contacting the ball illegally (double touching, lifting, carrying, throwing, etc.)
Touching the net with any part of the body while the ball is in play.
Blocking a ball coming from the opponent’s court and contacting the ball when reaching over the net if your opponent has not used 3 contacts AND has a player there to make a play on the ball.
Attacking a ball coming from the opponent’s court and contacting the ball when reaching over the net when the ball has not yet broken the vertical plane of the net.
Crossing the court centerline with any part of your body, with the exception of a hand or foot. It is only considered a violation if the entire hand or entire foot crosses the court centerline.
Serving out of rotation or out of order.
Back row player blocking (deflecting a ball coming from the opponent) when, at the moment of contact, the back row player is near the net and has part of their body above the top of the net. This is an illegal block.
Back row player attacking a ball inside the front zone (the area inside the 3M/10-foot line) when, at the moment of contact, the ball is completely above the net. This is an illegal attack.
