Figure E: Volleyball Overhand Serve
3. Go Play!
 The first team scoring 25 points wins the Volleyball game.
 Only the serving team can score a point. For example, when the
opposing team hits the Volleyball out of bounds, or fails to get it over
the net without it hitting the ground first, the serving team gets a point.
If the serving team hits the ball and it lands within bounds in the
opponent’s court, the serving team gets the point.
 When the serving team hits the ball out of bounds or fails to get it over
the net without it hitting the ground first, the serving team loses their
serve. Now the opposing team has the serve.
 One player may not hit the ball twice in succession. It is considered a
foul and results in losing the point.
 If your team has the ball, your team has only three passes to make it
over the net.
 The ball can be played off the net during a volley, but not by the same
player who hit it into the net. This is considered a double hit.
 A ball hitting a boundary line is "in."
 A ball is "out" if it hits the ground completely outside the boundary lines.
 Players may not lift, carry, or throw the ball.
 When a team gains the serve, the team rotates positions moving in a
clockwise direction. This ensures that each player has a chance to
serve.
