1. Ball
The standard volleyball is made of leather or synthetic leather, weighs
between 9 and 10 ounces and has a circumference of 25.6 to 26.4
inches.
2. Net and Court

The outdoor volleyball court measures 18 x 9 m, surrounded by a free zone that is 2

meters wide on all sides.

The minimum playing space for U.S. volleyball competitions is 7 meters.

The volleyball net is 32 feet long by 3 feet wide. For women, the net should be 7 feet, 4
1/8 inches high. For men, the net should be 7 feet, 11 5/8 inches high.

U.S. regulation volleyball playing surfaces must be flat and not present any hazards to the
players.

The playing court is marked by two sidelines and two end lines. All
lines must be 2 inches wide and must be created with a light color that is
easy to discern from the playing court.

Fun Fact:
An attack line should be placed three meters from the center line. The
center line divides the court into two 9 x 9 meter courts.
4. Antennae

Antenna are flexible rods that are 1.8 meters

long made of fiberglass, fastened at the outer
edge of each side band. Side bands are two
white bands attached vertically to the net and
placed above each sideline.
5. Knee-pads, Shoes, and Clothing
 Number of players

A volleyball team has six players.

Competitive volleyball is
traditionally divided into men's
teams and women's teams, though
recreational play can be coed.
Volleyball Playing Positions

AFTER A SERVE, PLAYERS ARE ALLOWED TO MOVE FROM THEIR

ROTATIONAL POSITIONS INTO THEIR PLAYING POSITIONS. THESE
POSITIONS ARE ALSO CALLED ZONES. COVERING THE TWO SIDES
OF THE COURT ARE THE OUTSIDE HITTER AND THE RIGHT-SIDE
HITTER, ALSO KNOWN AS THE WING SPIKERS.

IN BETWEEN THE WING SPIKERS IS THE CENTER OR MIDDLE

BLOCKER. OTHER POSITIONS INCLUDE THE OPPOSITE HITTER, THE
SETTER AND THE LIBERO. THE LIBERO OFTEN PLAYS LEFT BACK
POSITION AND IS ALLOWED TO PLAY BACKCOURT ONLY AND
CANNOT JUMP TO SPIKE THE BALL.
The libero always wears different
jersey color
 VOLLEYBALL BASIC SKILLS:
1. Serve

Used to put the ball in play. The action is done with

arm swing that sends the ball over the net into the
opponent's court

Types of serve:
a. Underhand Serve
b. Overhead Serve
Underhand Serve
How do you serve a volleyball underhand?

1. Use Your Non-Dominant Hand to Hold

The Ball

For the basic underhand serve, you are going to

use your dominant hand to strike the ball. You will
hold the ball in your opposite hand, cupping the
ball like on a golf tee.

2. Make A Serving Fist

Now you will make a fist with your hitting hand.

This isn’t a normal fist like if you’re punching
someone, you want to create as flat a surface as
you can with your fist so that the ball flies
straight. You’re going to contact the ball with the
palm side of your fist turned upward.
 Instructions for Executing the Ideal Overhand
Serve
Overhand Serve
To serve a volleyball overhand, you toss it with one hand and then
smash it into the air.

If you’re left-handed, this serve takes a little longer than

right-handed. Although many of the instructions will be
backward for you because Volleyball was designed for
right-handed players, If I explain a move that requires
you to use your right hand and right foot, you will
naturally adjust to using your left hand and right foot
instead.
 Volleyball Rotational Positions
The six players stand in two rows facing the net in what are
known as their rotational positions. The three players in the
front row form the attack zone, and the three players in the
back row form the defense zone.

The back player on the left is called the server. She begins
the rally to score a point. Players rotate clockwise on the
court after the team wins a rally on the opponent's serve.
 Step 1: Where to Put Your Feet
Toss the ball to your right hand. (You would toss the ball to your
left hand;) It will help if you position your right foot such that it is
slightly in front of your left foot.

Make sure your feet are far apart (about 12 inches). Maintain a
modest knee bend, but check that it doesn’t cause discomfort. My
preferred position involves lifting my left foot and bending my left
knee, but you may do whatever seems most comfortable.

Step 3: Toss, Step, Hit!

Get your feet ready (as in Step 1)- right in front of left
TOSS– Toss the ball (as in Step 2)- high and to the right
STEP-Step forward with your left foot as you …
HIT-Hit the ball when it reaches its highest point (as high as your arm
extends)
2. FOREARM PASS

Presentations are communication tools that can be Used to receive the ball from your
opponents, as in service, or as a technique to accurately control the ball in a way that eliminates
lifting or carrying the ball.

The fundamental action of passing is to rebound the ball off of the forearms (which are held
together tightly with the palms and thumbs positioned together) from a slightly squatted and
balanced position. used as demonstrations, and more.
3. Setting
Used to receive a teammate's pass in order that the play may
continue by passing the ball overhead to an attacker.

The fundamental action of setting is to contact the ball with the

finger pads momentarily at the forehead and following through
with arms fully extended to the hitting target.
4. Kill or Attack

Used to put the ball into the opponent's court in order to earn a
point or side out.

The fundamental action of attacking incorporates a quick approach

followed by a strong, full arm swing, and follow-thru.
5. Block
Used to stop the ball from crossing the net as a result of an opponent's attack. A
block is effective if it immediately places the ball back into the opponent's court
or if it temporarily slows down the ball in order for a defender to make a dig.

The fundamental action of blocking is to stand facing the net with feet shoulder
width apart, arms nearly extended above the head, ready to jump above the net
to deflect the ball back into the opponent's court.
 6. Floor Defense
Used to receive the opponent's attack. The key skills are digging and
sprawling. The dig resembles a forearm pass from a low ready position
and is used more for balls that are hit near the defender.

The sprawl is a result of an attempted dig for a ball that is hit further
away from the defender and resembles a dive.
 First referee calls the game from an elevated
referee stand while officiating the two teams
competing against each other.

2nd Referee: The 2nd Referee stands on the floor at the

end of the net, outside the playing area, closest to the
scorer’s table and opposite the 1st Referee. Because of
their physical location during the match, the 2nd Referee
is often called the “Down Ref”.
The scorer: The scorer operates seated at a
table across from the 1st Referee. The scorer
fills in the score sheet according to the rules
and co-operates with the 2nd Referee to
fulfill their duties.

LINE JUDGE: The line judge’s primary

responsibility is to make the call of whether a
ball is in or out of bounds when it lands near
the line and signal “in” or “out.”
