• Determine which team will "serve" the ball first. Toss a coin or form an
agreement to find out who will begin the game.
• Serve the ball from behind the line at the back of the court. If you serve from in
front of the line it will be a point for the other team. This is known as a foot
fault. The ball has to go over the net (but it can touch), and it has to land within
the court for the serve to be good.
• Return the ball if you're on the receiving team. Thus the rally has begun! A
typical play will be bump, set, spike -- but as long as it goes over within three
hits, it's good.
• Continue hitting the ball back and forth across the net until a fault
happens. This could be because of any one of the following:
i. If the ball hits the ground on the side of the serving team, then the other team has
the opportunity to serve.
ii. If the ball hits the ground on the side of the receiving team, then the serving team
can serve again.
iii. The point is awarded to the team that did not allow the ball to hit the ground.
• Serve the ball again. The team that won the last point gets to serve the ball. If
you're rotating, rotate now.
• Continue playing until you reach a threshold. You can decide how many
points you will allow for each game.
