Answer 3

I'm going to help you with this and assume it's not for a school test:

1. A rally continues until the ball hits

A. The ground/floor



But technically, A rally continues until the ball is hit out of bounds and out of play, the ball the floor on either side of the net in bounds, or a referee blows the play dead.

2. The area between the net and the attack line is

C. The front court

Extra credit if you call the attack line the 10 foot line (American) or 3 meter line (International)

3. A powerful shot hit with the open hand directed down into the opponent's side of the court is a

B. Spike

4. How many seconds does the server get to serve?

B. 5 seconds

I selected B, even though it is incorrect as you don't provide a correct answer. USAV rules state that at 14 and below, the server gets 5 seconds to serve, but can let the ball drop without contact, and get another 5 seconds. e.g. a do-over. Ages 15 and Up get one chance to serve, with 8 seconds. In High School, you get 8 seconds and 1 chance.

5. The game of volleyball was invented in

B. The United States

More: It was invented by William Morgan in 1895 at the Holyoke Massachusetts YMCA. It was originally called Mintoinette.

6. If the ball touches the net on the serve, it

A. Is legal

This is called a let if the ball does cross over the net into the opponents court and must be played. If the ball hits the net and does not cross the net to the opponents court, it is a fault and the team loses serve and gives a point to the opposing team.
