when there is prolonged contact with the ball, or it comes to rest momentarily in the player's

- Double Hit: A player is not permitted to contact the ball twice in succession, except during a
block. This violation occurs when the ball is hit twice by the same player without another

over the service line before making contact with the ball. This violation leads to a point for
the opposing team.
