 NET
Net is strung 2.43 m for
men and 2..24 m for women
from the surface of the
center line. The net should
be stretched enough to
make it firm and steady.
 BALL
Ball has rubber bladder and cased
in flexible leather or synthetic
leather of the three colors. Ball
circumference must be 65-67 cm
and must weigh from 260-280
grams. Official competition ball
should be tri-colored.
A player stands behind the baseline and hits
the ball, in an attempt to drive it into the
opponent's court. Their main objective is to
make it land inside the court; it is also
desirable to set the ball's direction, speed and
acceleration so that it becomes difficult for the
receiver to handle it properly. A serve is called
an "ace" when the ball lands directly onto the
court or travels outside after being touched by
an opponent.
 refers to whether the player strikes the
ball from below, at waist level, or first
tosses the ball in the air and then hits it
above shoulder level. Underhand serve
is considered very easy to receive and is
not generally employed in international
competitions.

.
an overhand serve where
the ball is first tossed high
in the air, then the player
makes a timed approach
and jumps to make
contact with the ball.
There is usually much
topspin imparted on the
ball. This is the most
popular serve amongst
college and professional
teams.
an overhand serve
where the ball is hit
with no spin so that
its path becomes
unpredictable. Can
be administered
while jumping or
standing.
