Hi,

    Your best bet is to google "Volleyball Rules".  A good source is http://www.usavolleyball.org/RulesOffici...

Those are pretty detailed...

These are more basic:

Answer 4

Sirollerblader has a great answer.  The complete USA Volleyball rule book has everything you could want to know about the rules.  And then about 80 pages more than that.

If you download the book, jot down any questions and email me.  I will try to translate it from "rules" into English.  

I will give you some of the highlighs of the rules.

There are 3 hits on a side.  The block does not count as one of the team hits.

There is a player that wears a different colored shirt.  They are called the Libero.  (pronounced LEE' be ro)  They are a defensive specialist.  They can replace any back row player.  

There are 6 players on the court at a time.  There are 3 front row players and 3 back row players.  They may switch positions after the serve is contacted.  

In USAV and women's college rules, contact with the entire body is allowed.  Even kicking the ball.  In high school and junior high rules, the ball may only be contacted on the waist and above.  Those rules do not all any contact below the waist.  

A player will serve until their team loses a rally.  Then the other team serves until they lose a rally.  The the other team will rotate clockwise to get a new server.  

Feel free to email me with any rules that you do not understand.  I teach USAV refereeing and scorekeeping clinics in Texas.
