What is Volleyball?
Volleyball is a team sport. Each team consists of six players and the teams are divided on the
court by a net. Three players stand near the net and three near the backline. The objective of
the game is to send the ball regularly over the net to the opposing team in an effort to ground
the ball on their side of the court.
History of Volleyball
In 1895, William G. Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men’s Christian

Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Massachusettes decided to blend
elements of basketball, baseball, tennis, and handball to create a game for
his classes of businessmen which would demand less physical contact than
basketball. He created the game of Volleyball (at that time
called, Mintonette). Morgan borrowed the net from tennis, and raised it 6
feet 6 inches above the floor, just above the average man’s head. During a
demonstration game, Alfred Halsted remarked to Morgan that the players
seemed to be volleying the ball back and forth over the net, and perhaps
“volleyball” would be a more descriptive name for the sport. Volleyball
was first played indoors, but it was brought out to the beach sometime in
the 1920's. There is some debate about where the first beach volleyball
game was played, but the two most likely theories are Santa Monica, CA
and The Outrigger Canoe Club in Hawaii. Organized beach tournaments
were played as early as 1948, but the Association of Volleyball
Professionals did not emerge until 1983.
Originally, a team could have as few as one player on a side to an unlimited number of
players. The players volleyed the ball back and forth across the net until one team missed and
a point scored. The first team to score 21 was declared winner.

B. differentiate the measurements of the equipment and facilities in volleyball; and
C. recognize the different equipment and facilities in volleyball.
Reading
Sporting equipment, also called sporting goods, has various forms depending on the sport,
but it is essential to complete the sport. The equipment ranges from balls, to nets, and to
protective gear like helmets. Sporting equipment can be used as protective gear or as tool used to
help the athletes play the sport.
Equipment and Facilities in Volleyball
1. The Playing Area

The playing area includes the playing court and the free zone. It shall be rectangular and
symmetrical.
The playing court is a rectangle measuring 18 x 9 m, surrounded by a free zone which is a
minimum of 3 m wide on all sides. The free playing space is the space above the playing area
which is free from any obstructions. The free playing space shall measure a minimum of 7 m in
height from the playing surface.
1.1 Lines in the Court

All lines are 5 cm wide. They must be of a light colour which is different from the colour
of the floor and from any other lines.
Boundary lines .Two side lines and two end lines mark the playing court. Both side lines
and end lines are drawn inside the dimensions of the playing court.
Centre line. The axis of the centre line divides the playing court into two equal courts
measuring 9 x 9 m each; however the entire width of the line is considered to belong to both
courts equally. This line extends beneath the net from side line to side line.
Attack line .On each court, an attack line, whose rear edge is drawn 3 m back from the
axis of the centre line, marks the front zone.
1.2 Zones and Areas
Front zone On each court the front zone is limited by the axis of the centre line and the
rear edge of the attack line. The front zone is considered to extend beyond the side lines to the
end of the free zone.
4|Page
Service zone The service zone is a 9 m wide area behind each end line. It is laterally
limited by two short lines, each 15 cm long, drawn 20 cm behind the end line as an extension of
the side lines. Both short lines are included in the width of the service zone.
Substitution zone The substitution zone is limited by the extension of both attack lines
up to the scorer's table.
Libero Replacement zone The Libero Replacement zone is part of the free zone on the
side of the team benches, limited by the extension of the attack line up to the end line.
Warm-up area the warm-up areas, sized approximately 3 x 3 m, are located in both of
the benchside corners, outside the free zone.

The Net
Placed vertically over the centre line there is a net whose top is set at the height of 2.43 m for
men and 2.24 m for women.
6|Page
Its height is measured from the centre of the playing court. The net height (over the two side
lines) must be exactly the same and must not exceed the official height by more than 2 cm.
The net is 1 m wide and 9.50 to 10 m long (with 25 to 50 cm on each side of the side bands),
made of 10 cm square black mesh.
The Side Bands

Two white bands are fastened vertically to the net and placed directly above each side line.
They are 5 cm wide and 1 m long and are considered as part of the net.
Antennae
An antenna is a flexible rod, 1.80 m long and 10 mm in diameter, made of fibreglass or
similar material.
An antenna is fastened at the outer edge of each side band. The antennae are placed on
opposite sides of the net.
The top 80 cm of each antenna extends above the net and is marked with 10 cm stripes of
contrasting colour, preferably red and white.
The antennae are considered as part of the net and laterally delimit the crossing space.
The Post
The posts supporting the net are placed at a distance of 0.50-1.00 m outside the side lines.
They are 2.55 m high and preferably adjustable.
The posts are rounded and smooth, fixed to the ground without wires. There shall be no
dangerous or obstructing devices.
The Ball
The ball shall be spherical, made of a flexible leather or synthetic leather case with a bladder
inside, made of rubber or a similar material.
Its colour may be a uniform light colour or a combination of colours.
Synthetic leather material and colour combinations of balls used in international official
competitions should comply with FIVB standards.
Its circumference is 65-67 cm and its weight is 260-280 g.
Its inside pressure shall be 0.30 to 0.325 kg/cm (4.26 to 4.61 psi) (294.3 to 318.82 mbar or
2
hPa).
All balls used in a match must have the same standards regarding circumference, weight,
pressure, type, colour, etc.

Lesson 3: Basic Skills in Volleyball
A. identify the different basic skills in volleyball;

B. value the importance physical fitness in playing volleyball; and
C. familiarize with the basic skills in volleyball through videos.
What to know…
As player skills improve, standards increase. This is key if you want to have highly
successful volleyball teams. As skill improves, the players’ expectation will increase. As a
player learns, they will start to expect to be more successful.
Learning is fun and as skill level improves, players will naturally try to improve their
skill level. This is a cycle that will never stop. As long as skill level is improving, players will
never become "burned out". It's natural to never be satisfied. As long as the athlete believes
and expects to improve, they will continue to always experience more success.
Reading I
Basic skills are the most important things in a certain sport. It helps you to develop to
become a good athlete. There are different basic skills in volleyball. Knowing one skill is not
enough to become a good player. You need to know everything.

Service
- The first contact that starts every rally is called a serve. The player who serves is
called the server. Usually a server uses one, open hand to swing overhead and
send the ball over the net from behind the end line. Less experienced players may
serve underhand with one closed fist.
Sooner or later, every player ends up in the right back position and gets to put the
ball in play. Your serving options are:
The Underhand Serve - Since this is the easiest serve to execute, don’t be
embarrassed to use it in novice or recreational situations. The goal of any serve is to get the
ball in play. Sure, we all like to hit an “ace” that rockets across the net, but the first obligation
is to maintain serve. The technique is to gently toss the ball up and in front of yourself while
bringing the other hand forward to make contact. A simple toss of several inches will suffice.
Make contact with the heel of the hand or the open
part of the palm along the index finger and the thumb. If you prefer to fold you fingers into
your palm for strength or control, keep your thumb out to
the side and avoid striking the ball with your knuckles. Such an irregular surface can make
the ball go in unpredictable directions. Stand outside
the court, anywhere along and behind the end line, about ten feet from the
right sideline. If you’re right-handed, hold the ball in you left hand and take a step forward
with your left foot while lobbing the ball ever so slightly in
front of yourself. All this time you bring your right arm back past your hip and then forward
to meet the ball just as it is coming down from the low toss. Never take your eyes off the ball.
Just before you start your serve make a mental picture of the opponent’s positions on the
court and decide where you’re going to attempt to put the ball.
9|Page
The Overhead Serve - This is the most popular serve in competitive volleyball. There are
many variations that you can master with practice. As in any serve, make sure you don’t
touch or cross the endline at any time during your serve. This type of serve offers speed and
deception.
When using the overhead serve, the ball passes over the net quickly and can be made to do a
number of different things including dropping quickly and floating erratically. Strike the ball
with either an open hand or a slightly cupped hand. A rigid wrist will allow you greatest
power. Toss the ball over your head about three feet and slightly to your left and take a step
forward with your weight shifting
from your right foot to your left foot. Arch your back slightly and bend your arm at the elbow
as the right arm comes behind your head and is brought forward to strike the ball. Finish with
a follow through to your hip. Once you know what open spot on the other side you will serve,
focus on the ball, from toss to contact.
The Floater - This ball flight has no stabilizing spin and will dart more like a knuckle ball in
baseball. The secret is to simply hit the ball in the center - in relation to its line of flight - so
very little or no spin occurs. Floaters work equally well with the underhand serve or the
overhand. The movement of the ball is very unpredictable to the opposing players.
The Top Spin - This ball flight results when the ball is struck on top using wrist snap and
moves very quickly over the net.
The beauty of this shot is that it drops suddenly, leaving little time for an opponent to react.
The Jump Serve (see right) - This ball flight requires a higher toss and a literal jump in the
air. Apply contact with the ball just as in the Top Spin serve, and the results can be even more
devastating given the added force of the jump. However, this is the hardest serve to master,
and without sufficient top spin, the ball will likely end up way out of bounds. It’s safest to
aim this serve at the middle of the court.
The Curve - This ball flight can be most effective outdoors in windy conditions. Approach
the shot just like a top spin serve until the moment of impact and then hit the ball left or right
of center. The ball will curve in the direction in which it is hit.

Guides/Instructions in practicing service:

1. Find an area you can play (backyards/playgrounds etc.) Volleyball
2. Make a court of Volleyball on that area probably the dimension of the court is
based on Lesson 2 9Learning Activity 1).
3. Provide a Volleyball ball (if none you can make use of any ball the same as
volleyball), and where your sports attire and go to an area where you can play.
Since most of you are beginners in this game, practice all the different services.

Passing
Forearm Pass
The forearm pass is also known as the bump pass. To use it correctly, you must join
your hands together and allow the ball to strike the fleshy part of your forearms
simultaneously. There many ways of joining your hands, we’ll touch on a couple here. But
the best way to learn yourself is to watch a few players and experiment. A common mistake
is to allow the ball to strike your wrists or hands, often resulting in an unpredictable pass or a
ball returned over the net, commonly called an overpass. The best way to avoid this problem
is to remind yourself to bend your wrists and hands down before impact to help cushion the
ball.
Pick the passing method that works best for you. Don’t be concerned about which method is
better than the other. It’s really about personal choice and effective control. Whichever you
choose, keep these five points in mind:
11 | P a g e
1. Keep the ball between your wrists and elbows in the fattest part of the forearm
2. Press the wrists and hands down to hyperextend the arms
3. Lock your elbows. This gives the ball the most area to hit, and helps you control the
direction of your pass.
4. Try to bend your knees before the ball gets to you so that you can both absorb the serve
and re-direct the pass.
5. Don’t swing at the ball, but do try to shrug your shoulders toward your target at the
moment of impact.
https://youtu.be/gOgfoEGUDCA
Overhead Pass
The setter runs the offense, and determines which hitter to set. Sometimes, a team has
two setters. The key to good setting is consistency. The basic premise of setting is to take a
bump pass and convert it to a well placed ball that can be effectively hit by another player to
the opponent’s court. The proper technique for setting is to raise your hands about five inches
above your head with your thumbs on the bottom and pointed towards your eyes. Your
fingers should be loose and slightly cupped. Don’t spread your hands any farther than
necessary to receive the ball. As a guide, you’ll have a two to three inch gap between both of
your thumbs and both of your forefingers.
Here are a few things to keep in mind about overhead pass:

1. Get to the ball.
2. Face your target (except when you’re deliberately making a back set).
3. Bend your elbows and your knees.
4. Look at the ball through the opening between your hands.
5. Bring both hands into contact with the ball simultaneously.
6. Don’t let the ball touch your palm. This is called a push, and is a violation. If the ball
comes to rest in you hand, or you strike the ball unevenly with either hand, you’ll be in
violation.
7. Receive the ball over your head, and let it snap out of your finger pads. Keep your hands
above your face or you’ll be whistled.

Blocking
The surest way to cripple your opponent’s attack is to take away a hitter’s spike. And
the surest way to do that is with a well coordinated blocking scheme. Blockers don’t need to
take a running start, but must stay close to the net and leap up. If you require a running start
to jump, you probably don’t belong in the block. Stand with your hands and fingers held fully
extended above the shoulders. Focus on the hitter in front of you and slide into the path of the
descending ball at the point where it will cross the net.
Your jump should occur just slightly after the hitter’s. Knees must be bent before
takeoff to jump straight up. As you jump, fully extend your arms and hands. Spread your
fingers, but keep them rigid, and bend your wrists as you rise above the net so that your hands
break the plane of the net. If you keep your arms just a few inches apart, you’ll avoid letting a
ball go through them.
If you’re a shorter player forced to block, bend your wrists back instead of forward
and don’t try to penetrate the net after the block which should put the ball in good position for
either you or another teammate to play it. This is called a soft block.
13 | P a g e
Volleyball techniques for blocking involves:
- Good court vision – having good court vision involves making good judgements while watching
the setter, the ball and the hitters.
- Identify the front row players – identify the setter as front row or back row to know if the setter
can legally attack the second ball
Steps that are used to move into optimal blocking position:

- Shuffle Step – the shuffle technique is probably easiest because the hips stay square to the net.
- Crossover Step – the crossover is better for when you have to travel far to get in position to
block because you can get there faster than shuffling.
- Wide fingers and thumbs up when blocking – keep the fingers spread wide and tight and thumbs
pointing up to prevent jamming your finger. Spreading your wide will also allow you to take up
mare space.
Volleyball techniques for your blocking hands

- Angle your hands to block the ball into your opponent’s court.
- The outside blocker should reach and penetrate a little more with the outside hand.
- This will give that outside hand a little better angle for blocking the ball into the court and
not out of bounds. If you’re confident you won’t block the ball back out of bounds, it’s
always a good idea to surround the ball with your hands when blocking.

Attacking
All balls coming from the opposite side of the court are considered an attack regardless of the
manner of execution (hard and soft) with the exemption of service and blocking. If there is
a moment of truth in volleyball, it is the perfectly hit spike. The spike combines power,
speed and athleticism to provide the excitement that is uniquely volleyball. The spike is
used to either put the ball down in a portion of the court where the opposition is not, or to
strike the ball so hard that the defenders are unable to deal with it effectively. Front row
14 | P a g e
players can attack the ball from anywhere on the court. Back row players can only attack
from behind the three meter line.
Spike Techniques:
1. Put the foot opposite striking arm forward.
2. Short step forward with opposite foot.
3. Long running step forward.
4. Bring left/right together to prepare for the jump.
5. Bend knees to 90 degree angle.
6. Swing arms backwards and then forward.
7. Use momentum from arms and force from legs to jump.
