Volleyball is enjoyed all over the world on both a recreational and professional level. Played over a net, two teams of six players attempt to score points by grounding a ball on the opponent’s side of the court. The team to score 25 points with a 2-point margin wins a set on a best-of-five basis.
During a game, various skills are needed to both defend and attack successfully. These include serving from behind the baseline, passing accurately to a teammate, setting up a teammate to score and attacking with a shot into the opponent’s court. Blocking is another feature of volleyball used by defensive players standing close to the net, as well as ‘digging’ – a move displayed when the ball is close to touching the ground.
Because volleyball is usually played on an indoor court and is popular around the world, games can take place all throughout the year. There are many official tournaments licensed by the governing body – the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) – held on an annual basis.
