Volleyball is a team sport from the group of rebound games that originated in the USA and is now played worldwide.
In volleyball, two teams of six players face each other on a court divided by a net.
The aim of the game is to pass the ball over the net to the floor of the opposing half of the court using only one's own body and hitting the ball, and to prevent the opponent from doing the same. A team is allowed to touch the ball three times in a row (plus block contact) in order to return it.
