There are 3 types of passes in volleyball. They are called forearm pass, overhead pass, and hit.Illegal hits in volleyball are called a carry, a carry can be an open handed pass or bringing the ball behind your head to set.Volleyball uses rally scoring and was created in the United States. A game is done when the score of 25 is reached, but the team must win by 2 points. In an official game there are 6 players on the court at once and they rotate in a clockwise rotation.The two most important skills in volleyball are the forearm pass and the serve.A server has only 1 attempt to serve the ball and is not allowed to cross the line on a serve. The ball may touch the net and be played on a serve or play.A team is allowed 3 hits per play, but a player may not hit the ball 2 times consecutively.A player may not touch the net during a game, but the ball can be played off of the net.A volleyball can be blocked but not on the serve.The setters job is to try and get the second pass to create an opportunity for a hit (spike). A player may not spike the serve.The term volleying is used to describe successful passes back and forth between the two teams.
