Volleyball is a team sport played by two teams, each with six players, where the objective is to volley a ball over a net and score points by making the ball touch the opponent's court. The game has various positions such as outside hitter, setter, and libero, and is governed by specific rules regarding scoring, contacts, and player rotations. Different forms of volleyball exist, including beach, indoor, and sitting volleyball, each with unique rules tailored to their environments.

5. Background of Volleyball
- Is a game played by two teams, usually of six players on a
side, in which the players use their hands to bat a ball back and
forth over a high net, trying to make the ball touch the court
within the opponents’ playing area before it can be returned.
To prevent this, a player on the opposing team bats the ball up
toward a teammate before it touches the court surface—that
teammate may then volley it back across the net or bat it to a
third teammate who volleys it across the net.A team is
allowed only three touches of the ball before it must be
returned over the net.

6. -Volleyball was invented in 1895 by
William G. Morgan, physical director of the
Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA)
in Holyoke, Massachusetts. It was designed as
a less physically demanding alternative to
basketball.
History

7. - Alfred Halstead later renamed it to volleyball because the objective
of the game was to volley the ball back and forth over a net.
The name was changed to volleyball due to the nature of the game
involving volleying the ball back and forth over the net.The sport
quickly grew in popularity and was officially recognized by the
InternationalVolleyball Federation (FIVB) in 1947
Positions and Roles

18. Tactics inVolleyball

19. Defensive Tactics in Volleyball
- a defensive play that is accomplished by 1, 2, or 3 front-row
players jumping and pressing their arms over the net in an
effort to “block” the opposing hitter. Blocking is one of the most
worked-on skills out there. It's complex, demanding, and requires great
discipline to get good at.
Blocking
- the job of a defensive volleyball player is not to let the ball hit the
ground. If this happens for some reason the volleyball team will lose a
point. So, to prevent such a situation from happening, a volleyball player
must be able to dive, roll, and slide.
Diving, rolling and sliding

20. Passing Tactics in Volleyball
- the preparation for a volleyball attack starts with a dig.
Actually, a dig is an accurate and controlled volleyball
shot.A dig is also known as the first shot after an attack
of the opposite team is resisted.As previously
mentioned, a volleyball team has the right to make 3
shots only. So, dig is the first of 3 shots.
Digging

21. - an athlete needs to put hands together and arms straight. By
doing this, a volleyball player will be able to prepare for a dig
successfully. Finally, a volleyball player needs to hit the ball.The ball
should be hit on the player’s forearms.
Setting
is the final stage of preparing for an attack hit.You need to know that there
are two types of volleyball sets – an overhand shot as well as overhead shot.
Setting involves hitting the ball with palms. Obviously, a setter shouldn’t hit
the ball forcefully.Actually, the job of a setter is to make it easy for an
attacker to carry out the final third shot (an attack hit).That’s why it’s fair to
say that the success of an attacker depends a lot on setter’s job.

22. Attacking Tactics inVolleyball

23. - Serve is considered to be one of the most important shots in volleyball.
There are different types of serves in volleyball – float serve, jump serve
as well as topspin serve. Obviously, a server should aim to make it
difficult for the opposite team to dig and pass the ball. It’s important to
keep in mind that if a server does great job then he/she will be able to
put a lot of pressure on the opposite team.
Serving

24. - A spike is another type of an attack hit in volleyball.After the ball is
digged and set, it’s time for an attacker to carry out the attack hit.
And of course, an attacker should aim to land the ball on the
opposite side of the court to win a score for his/her team. So, if an
attacker does great job then he/she will be able either to win a point
for his/her team or create a lot of difficulties for the opposite team.

25. 6 Fundamental Skills inVolleyball

26. Serving
A properly executed serve provides the serving team with
a significant advantage over the receiving team. A serve
that is properly placed can cause players on the receiving
team to get out of position or attempt awkward returns.
The server must stand behind the service line at the end of
the court. There are three serving styles in volleyball. The
underhand serve, the overhand serve and the jump serve.
The underhand serve generally is a relatively slow serve
that travels high in the air toward the rear of the court.
Both the overhand serve and the jump serve are fast
serves frequently struck with top spin.

27. Passing
Passing also is known as "bumping" in an
offensive sequence and "digging" when used to
defend an offensive shot. Passing is executed by
interlocking your fingers, holding your arms
straight and away from your body. Make contact
with the ball on your forearms and follow
through to your target. The only allowable service
return is a pass, so it is frequently the first shot in
a three-shot sequence.

28. Setting
Setting, or overhead passing, typically is the
second shot in a three-shot sequence. A
properly executed set is placed close and above
the net. You want to place the ball about four
feet from the net so on the third shot, typically
a spike, your teammate won't hit the net on her
follow through.

29. Hitting
Generally, you want to hit the ball with the
greatest force possible on the third shot of a
sequence. When the ball is struck forcefully
downward, above the height of the net, it is
referred to as a "spike" or "kill" shot. To execute
a kill shot, a player may use either a two- or
three-step approach. Strike the ball at the top of
your vertical leap, using the heel of your palm,
followed by wrapping your hand on the ball with
your fingers and snapping your wrist.

30. Blocking
Blocking is a defensive play made close to the
net. The object of a block is to deflect an
offensive shot directly back toward your
opponent. Block attempts can be made by
individual players or pairs of players. Blocking
is not allowed on serves. Blocks often are
utilized as a defense against "kill" shots.
