  1. the guy has a point but then also u NEVER EVER jump when ur bumping the ball ONLY when ur jump serving of spiking in the front row! when ur passing a ball its all about the footwork it a ball is comeing straight at you really hard or its a flotter then just stick your arms out and stand still and when ur spikeing do (right handed) left right left jump and the oppisite if ur a lefty and hit the ball w/ wat ever hand you use

    ps hit me up if u need to know how to serve

    is this worth 10 points?


  2. How to play volleyball: instructions on how to play... First of all, catching the ball or throwing the ball is against the rules. A team consists of three lines of players. To start a game, a team serves the ball. You serve by holding the ball in front of you to the side with one hand, and making  fist with the other and hitting it up in a vertical postion. If the ball hits the ground on the other teams side, your team gets a point. You get different amounts of points depending on where the ball lands. The point scoring goes like this(L-R)3,3,3, the middle is 2,1,2, and the front is 3,3,3. Ok, back to the basics; a team has three tries to get the ball over the net to score. A player can either hit the ball to a teammate or hit it over the ball over the net themselves. To hit the ball up, you overlap your fingers like you umm... put your fingers inbeetween each other, and hit it up and over to a teammate. You can also hit by setting, which is when you hit with you fingertips. That's it.

  3. the key to the game in volleyball is bump set spike, which youve probably heard.

    The ball is served over from the other team.

    serving is done by standing with all of your weight on your right foot, throwing the ball about 5 feet above you, and stepping into the ball as you hit it with your outstretched palm.

    One of the six players on your side will bump the ball to target. (the target is where the setter is)

    Bumping is done by clasping your hands in front of you and locking your elbows. Bend your knees as you make contact and you will have better control.

    The next step is for the setter to "set" the ball. The setter is the designated player to touch the second ball. The ball can only be touched three times while it is on your side. The first should be a good pass to target, the second should be a set, almost ALWAYS done by the setter, and the third touch should ideally be a spike to the other side.

    Setting is done by holding your arms outstretched above you like you are holding an invisible ball. make sure your thumbs are pointed at your eyes. Let the ball slide into your hands for no less than a second, and release the ball high into the air in front of the hitter you set to.

    Next, the spike. The set should be done well so that the ball is high and close to the net, allowing the spiker to hit as hard and as accurate as possible.

    Spiking is done by taking a large step with your left foot, then hopping onto your two feet in the order right then left, jumping into the air as high as possible, and hitting the ball with an outstretched palm to the other side of the court. Your left arm should be out infront of you, with your right arm cocked back with the back of your palm by your ears, then BAM!

    the other side will attempt to do the same thing, and you repeat over and over until somebody makes a mistake, either hitting it out, touchingthe net, going under the net, or hitting the ball four times.

    I hope that helped!
