1. Volleyball is a team sports with six players in each
side of the court with a 9x18 meters dimension.
The object of the game is to send the ball over the
net and avoid it from grounding into your own court.
A ball, net and a court are needed to play the
game. Scoring follows a rally point system. A game
is won in a two out of three sets. A set is won by
reaching a score of 25.
2. In case of a deuce, a team should have a two-
point advantage over the other. Players need
skills like service, volleying, setting, spiking and
blocking to enjoy much of the game and gain its
fitness benefits. Volleyball on the other hand
strengthens the upper body, arms and the lower
extremities when you serve, pass, set, spike
and block when in play.
