VOLLYBALL PLAYERS UNIFORMS

Question

I notice womens olympic vollyball uniforms are the same except for one on the floor, why?

Answer 1

OMG SO MANY PPL ASK THIS QUESTION. OK LISTEN THEY ARE CALLED THE LIBERO! NOT A TEAM CAPTAIN. WHOEVER SAID LIBERO IS RIGHT.

The libero specializes in the back row as a defense player. They're the ones who dive and dig to get the ball to the setter to set up the offense. Mostly all liberos wear a different color jersey than the rest of their team members.

Answer 2

usually tha libero (backrow player, main chaser) is tha one with a different jersey on

Answer 3

It's the libero. they are like a defensive specialist. Their job is to only play the back row.

It is a position.

Here is information from wikipedia.

"The Libero

In 1998 the libero player was introduced internationally, the term meaning free in Italian is pronounced LEE-beh-ro (rather than lih-BEAR-oh); the NCAA introduced the libero in 2002.[15] The libero is a player specialized in defensive skills: the libero must wear a contrasting jersey color from his or her teammates and cannot block or attack the ball when it is entirely above net height. When the ball is not in play, the libero can replace any back-row player, without prior notice to the officials. This replacement does not count against the substitution limit each team is allowed per set, although the libero may be replaced only by the player whom they replaced. The libero may function as a setter only under certain restrictions. If she/he makes an overhand set, she/he must be standing behind (and not stepping on) the 3-meter line; otherwise, the ball cannot be attacked above the net in front of the 3-meter line. An underhand pass is allowed from any part of the court.

The libero is, generally, the most skilled defensive player on the team. There is also a libero tracking sheet, where the referees or officiating team must keep track of who the libero subs in and out for. There may only be one libero per set (game), although there may be a different libero in the beginning of any new set (game).

Furthermore, a libero is not allowed to serve, according to international rules, with the exception of the NCAA women's volleyball games, where a 2004 rule change allows the libero to serve, but only in a specific rotation. That is, the libero can only serve for one person, not for all of the people for whom she goes in. That rule change was also applied to high school play soon after."

Answer 4

that is the labereo they are back row only they cannot cross the ten foot line they are usually the best defensivley on the team

Answer 5

It's a position called libero. The libero is a designated back-row player and generally the most skilled defensive player on the team. Not allowed to serve or block.

The color of the libero's uniform must contrast from the color of her teammates uniforms, and the shorts must be the same as her teammates.
