VOLLEYBALL BASICS
Points, Sets, and Match Winning
This section highlights how the player wins rallies, matches and sets.
To Win A Match
The match is won by the team that wins the number of sets in the match.
To Win A Set
Depending on the set limit (15 for example), the winner is the first team to reach the set limit.
To Win A Rally
Whenever a team fails in its service or fails to return the ball, or commits any other fault, the opposing team wins the rally.
If the opposing team served, it scores a point and continues to serve. If the opposing team received the service, it gains the right to serve and also scores a point.
Preparation, Structure of Play
Positions
The players are free to position themselves within their court area. When the server hits the ball, each team must be within their own court (except the server).
Service Order
Service order must be maintained throughout the set. After the first service in a set, the player to serve is determined as follows:
•
When the serving team wins the rally, the player who served before, serves again.
•
When the receiving team wins the rally, the receiving team gains the right to serve and the player who did not serve last time will now serve.
Playing Actions
This section highlights the states of play in Beach Volleyball.
Ball "In"
The ball is "in" when it touches the ground of the playing court including the boundary lines marking out the court.
Ball "Out"
The ball is "out" when it:
•
Falls on the ground completely outside the boundary lines.
•
Touches an object outside of the court, or a person out of play.
•
Crosses the vertical plane of the net totally or even partly outside the crossing space during service or the third hit of the team.
Team Hits
Each team is entitled to a maximum of three hits for returning the ball over the net. These team hits include both intentional hits and unintentional hits such as blocks and shots against the player.
A player is not allowed to hit the ball two times in a row.
Serving
The service is the act of putting the ball into play.
The player may move freely within the service zone. The moment of the service hit or take-off for a jump service, the server must not touch the court. After the hit, the server may step or land outside the service zone, or inside the court.
If the ball, after having been tossed or released by the server, lands without being touched or caught by the server, it is considered a service.
Blocking
Blocking is the action of players close to the net to intercept the ball coming from the opponent by reaching higher than the top of the net. The first hit after the block may be executed by any player, including the one who has touched the ball at the block.
Net Play
While the ball is crossing the net, it may touch the net.
A ball driven into the net may be recovered within the limits of the three-team hits.
Movement
Position a player by pressing the directional buttons or left analog stick.
Serving
Players on a team rotate the serve. One player serves until he loses the serve. You can move the server anywhere parallel to the serving line to position your serve.
Next, press and hold the button(s) for the type of serve you want. The serve position becomes locked in, and the directional buttons or left analog stick now control the aiming target. Move the directional buttons or left analog stick to aim your serve, then release the serve button(s) to serve the ball.
POWER
The longer you hold the button(s) for a serve, the more power the serve will have. Remember to let go of the button before the player hits the ball or the serve will hit the net.
AFTERTOUCH
Aftertouch, or ball spin, gives a serve (or any hit) a degree of spinning movement which can make it harder to return. To impart aftertouch on the ball, press the left analog stick left or right before the serve is released.
SERVE STYLES
There are several types of serves:
•
Underhand Serve
•
▲ button
•
Fairly soft and slow
