VOLLEYBALL RULESEXPLAINED

Welcome to the exciting world of volleyball! Whether you're just starting or want to brush up on the basics, this guide will make learning the rules fun and easy.

Positions and Roles of Players

Think of the court like a dance floor – everyone has a role, and the moves change as you rotate!

Front Row Players

Outside Hitter:The power hitter, ready to spike from the left side

Middle Blocker:The all-rounder in the middle, blocking and attacking!

Opposite Hitter:Another strong attacker, but they play on the right

Back Row Players

Left Back & Right Back:They guard the court and receive the opponent's attacks

Libero:The defensive hero in a different colored jersey – they dig up the ball and keep the play alive

Setter:The court's mastermind, setting up perfect balls for the hitters to spike

Basic Game Rules

Essential rules every volleyball player should know

Scoring System

Games are played in sets to 25 points (must win by 2). Best of 5 sets wins the match.

Bump, Set, Spike!

Teams have 3 touches to get the ball over the net. This classic sequence is volleyball's foundation.

Rotations

After winning the serve, all players rotate clockwise. This keeps everyone moving and trying different positions!

Serving Rules

Serve from behind the back line. You get one chance to get it over the net and in bounds.

Net Rules

Don't touch the net during play! The ball can touch the net on its way over, but players cannot.

Rally Scoring

Every rally results in a point for someone. No more side-out scoring - every play matters!
