Always play as a team and always try harder❤️

Two teams of six players  compete against each other on opposite sides of a court. Everytime the ball hits your floor it's a point for the other team (vise-versa). You rotate positions on the court counter clockwise, passing, setting, and spiking in rallies. First team to 21 points wins the set!

•You can't touch the net or cross the line underneath.

•You play on volleyball court. A standard court has an outside border of 59 feet long and 29.5 feet wide with a net on the center line and two lines on either side of the net ten feet away from center line (ten foot line).

•A volley is when you get a bump(pass), set, and then a spike(hit).

•You must serve behind the back out line
