2. 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.

3. Volleyball, invented in 1895 by William G. Morgan in Massachusetts as " Mintonette ," was created as a less strenuous alternative to basketball. It gained popularity quickly, with official rules established in 1896. The Volleyball Federation was formed in 1947 to standardize the sport and organize competitions. Volleyball debuted in the Olympics in 1964, followed by beach volleyball in 1996. Today, millions play both indoor and beach variations worldwide. History of Volleyball

4. 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.

5. 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.

6. 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.

7. Strategy and Formations Common Formations: 4-2, 5-1, and 6-2 (determines number of setters). Offensive Plays: Quick sets, back-row attacks, and combination plays. Defensive Plays: Double blocks, dig formations, and man-to-man coverage.

8. Ball: An indoor ball is heavier than a beach volleyball. Court: Indoor court size: 18m x 9m, beach court: slightly smaller at 16m x 8m. Net: Indoor height: 2.43m for men, 2.24m for women. Beach volleyball: similar height, same for both men and women. Knee pads, shoes, uniforms: the importance of proper gear for protection and performance. Volleyball Equipment
