LESSON 1: VOLLEYBALL AS A TEAM SPORTS AND ITS BACKGROUND
A team sport includes any sport which involves players working together
towards a shared objective. A team sport is an activity in which a group of
individuals, on the same team, work together to accomplish an ultimate goal which
is usually to win.
Football, basketball, volleyball, baseball, and other team sports provide
amazing personal development opportunities that every student – regardless of his
age – can benefit from. The importance of teamwork is huge in every possible social
environment you can think of, and it shouldn’t be neglected.

Volleyball is a team sports played with a ball and a net. There are teams on
each side of the net. One team hits the ball over the net and into the other team's
court, the other team must then hit the ball back over the net and in bounds within
three tries without letting the ball touch the ground.

There are two main kinds of competitive volleyball played in the world right
now. They are team volleyball and beach volleyball. Both are Olympic sports and
have competitive leagues. Team volleyball is played indoors on a hard court with 6
people per team. Beach volleyball is played outdoors on the sand with 2 players per
team. The rules, strategy, and discussion here will focus on team volleyball.

Volleyball can be a lot of fun to play. To play with friends you can play with
any number of people and most anyone can join in. To be a competitive player
takes lot of practice. Good height and jumping ability helps a lot.

History of Volleyball

Volleyball was originally invented by William Morgan in 1985. He was an


athletic director at the Young Men Christians Association (YMCA) and was trying to
come up with a game that would be fun, like basketball, but less taxing. Of course
the rules have changed some since then, but it quickly became a popular sport at
the YMCA. The name volleyball came about when a man named Alfred Halstead
noticed how the game had a volleying nature. People started calling it volley ball
and the name stuck.
Volleyball was first played as an official Olympic sport in the 1964 Olympics.
Japan won the first gold medal in women's volleyball and the USSR won the first
gold for men's volleyball.

Volleyball Equipment and Court

An indoor volleyball is typically white, but may have some other colors as
well. It's round with 8 or 16 panels and is usually made of leather. The official indoor
volleyball is 25.5 -26.5 inches in circumference, weighs 9.2 - 9.9 ounces, and has
4.3-4.6 psi air pressure. A youth volley ball is slightly smaller. Beach volleyballs are
slightly bigger, weigh the same, but have much less air
pressure.

The volleyball court is 18 meters long and 9 meters wide. It is divided in sides
in the middle by the net. The net is 1-meter-wide and is set up so that the top of the
net is 7 feet 11 5/8 inches above the ground (right around 8 feet). The only other
key feature is a line that is drawn on each side 3 meters from the net and parallel to
the net. This line is called the attack line. It defines the front row and back row
areas.

VOLLEYBALL SKILLS

Volleyball is a sports that requires you to master a complex skill set. Because
you rotate from playing front line positions to back line positions, you constantly are
shifting from setting up offensive plays to completing offensive plays. You also must
shift quickly from offense to defense. During any given sequence in volleyball, a
player must be prepared to execute a variety of skills.

SERVICE

The volleyball serve is the first opportunity for a player to score a point. It
begins each rally. Once you toss the ball in the air you must contact the ball to send
it over the net to land inside the lines of the court. Each player gets only one chance
to serve. The serve can touch the net and continue into the opponent's court. When
the serving team loses a rally, it loses the right to serve. The receiving team then
rotates one position on the court.
DIG

The "dig" is a forearm pass that is used to control the ball and pass it to the
setter at the net. It is usually the first contact by the team and an effective shot to
use in defense, such as when receiving a spike. The "libero" handles much of the
team's serve reception and is pivotal in backcourt defense.
 clasp both hands together
 one palm inside the other
 pointing both thumbs to the ground
 bent knees

SET

The "set" is an overhead pass used to change the direction of the dig and put
the ball in a good position for the spiker.
The set is usually the second contact in a rally and the person who sets the
ball the most is called the setter.

The setter on a volleyball team is like a point guard on a basketball team who
runs the offense and calls the plays.
SPIKE

The "spike" is when the ball is hit or smashed across the net. It is the most
powerful shot in Volleyball – and the most effective way to win a rally.
BLOCK

A block is the first opportunity for a team on defense to keep the team on
offense from hitting into their court.
Once the whistle blows and your team serves the ball over the net, your team
is on defense, ready to defend your court.
