What is Volleyball?
• A popular team sport played with a ball
and a net.
• Played both indoors and on beaches.
• Objective: Send the ball over the net to
land in the opponent's court.
History of Volleyball
• The beginning of volleyball can be traced from the ingenuity of
WILLIAM J. MORGAN in 1895 at Holyoke Massachusetts. Initially, the
game called “MINTONETTE” but in its first exhibition game
demonstration, Alfred Halstead suggested the name “Volleyball” due to
the volleying characteristics of the game. In 1910, the game was brought to
the Philippines by ELWOOD S. BROWN. The
Filipinos are credited in the changes of the game with the addition of the
skill called “SPIKE OR KILL” In 1964, volleyball had its first summer
Olympics exposure as a MEDAL SPORT.
• VOLLEYBALL is a team sports with six players in each side of the
court with a 9 x 18 meters dimension. The object of the game
is to send the ball over the net and avoid it from grounding into your
own court. A ball, net, and a court are needed to play the
game. Scoring follows a rally point system. A game is
won in a two out of three sets. A set is won by reaching a score of
25. In case of a deuce, a team should have a two-point
advantage over the other. Players need skills like service,
volleying, setting, spiking, and blocking to enjoy much
of the game and gain its fitness benefits.
Rules of the Game
Team Composition:
• 6 players per team in indoor volleyball.
• Beach volleyball: 2 players per team.

Basic Rules:
• Each team gets a maximum of 3 touches to
return the ball.
• A point is scored when the ball hits the floor in
the opponent's court.
• The game is played in sets, with 25 points
required to win a set (must win by 2).
Basic Techniques
Serving
• Overhand Serve: Common serve; tosses ball overhead for accuracy
and power.
• Underhand Serve: Beginner-friendly; strikes ball below waist for an
easier play.
• Jump Serve: Advanced technique; involves toss, jump, and hit for
added speed and force.

Passing
• Forearm Pass (Bump): Used to receive serves or spikes by forming a
platform with forearms to direct the ball to a teammate.
• Key Focus: Stay low, keep arms straight, and use legs to position the
ball instead of swinging arms.
Basic Techniques
Setting
• Overhead Pass (Set): Using the fingertips to push the ball upwards into
the air, allowing a teammate to spike it. This is typically done near the
net.
• Technique: Form a triangular window with the hands, contact the ball
above the forehead, and use a quick, controlled movement to send it
up.

Spiking
• Spike: A forceful downward hit aimed at the opponent’s court. It is
usually done from a jump, giving it more power and a steep angle.
• Approach: A common 3-step or 4-step approach to gain momentum,
followed by a jump and a powerful arm swing to strike the ball.
Basic Techniques
Blocking
• Block: A defensive move to stop or deflect a spike from the opposing
team by jumping near the net with arms extended upward.
• Focus: Time the jump to meet the ball at its peak and keep hands
angled to direct the ball back into the opponent’s court.

Digging
• Dig: A defensive technique to prevent the ball from hitting the floor after
an opponent’s spike.
• Technique: Similar to passing, but usually involves more reactive
movements. Players get low, extend arms, and use forearms to pop the
ball up to a teammate.
