Volleyball is a vastly popular sport played by men and women alike. Not only is it played in high schools and colleges, it is also an Olympic sport.
indoor volleyball, which is played by two teams of six players each, divided by a net. A volleyball court is a rectangular, flat surface divided by a net. For men, the net height is 7 feet, 11 inches, while for women it is 7 feet, 4 inches.
There are two rows of players, three in the front row and three in the back. Matches are scored by rally points. In other words, if the ball becomes dead on your side of the net, the other team gets the point as well as possession of the ball.
If a serve does not go over the net, the other team gets the point and possession of the ball. Matches are played best three out of five sets or best two out of three sets; sets are to 25 points and must be won by at least two points.
The third or fifth set is only played to 15 points.In regulation volleyball, there are two referees, one on each of the court, right next to the net. One is on the floor and one is on a ladder. Additionally, there are two line judges, one on the back line of each side of the net. Line judges determine whether a ball lands inside or outside the boundary lines, and they also call "foot falls" on the back line during service.
