    REFLECTION

    Volleyball is a team sport in which two teams of six players are separated by a net. Each
    team tries to score points by grounding a ball on the other team's court under organized
    rules. It has been a part of the official program of this Summer Olympic Games since
    Tokyo 1964. Volleyball is a team game which has six players that play on either side of
    the net. A set of rules decide the score that each team is able to make against the other
    team. The game begins with a player from one team throwing the ball using hand or
    arm over the net so that the opposite team can receive it on their court. The basic rule is
    to prevent the received ball from hitting the ground so that it can be thrown back to the
    other team with up to 3 touches from the team. A foul happens if one person from the
    team touches the ball more than twice (double-hit) while it’s on their side of the net.
    Also, a team scores a point by throwing the call across the net to the other team’s side
    such that it hits the ground directly or the player fails to send it back over the net.

    Thus there are basically two ways to score a point-a) one is by throwing the ball on the
    ground of the opponent team passing over the net b) another is if the opponent team is
    unable to render the ball back into the court of serving team. Volleyball is played in
    different variations in different parts. There are some rules for the serve in the game of
    volleyball. 1) The ball has to be served underhand or overhand. 2) The player who serves
    the ball must stand behind the end line on his/her side of the court while making the
    serve.3) the served ball must cross the net and reach the opponent side. 4) The ball has
    to be clearly visible to the opponent team. Similarly there are rules for rotation. 1)
    Teams change sides as the other team wins the serve.2) Clockwise rotation of the
    players happens. The minimum number of players on each side for a game is 4 while the
    maximum is 6. Indoor and outdoor are two variations of volleyball game. Outdoor
    volleyball is also played as beach volleyball on the beach. Indoor volleyball has six
    players in each team while beach volleyball has even two persons in each team.

    Spiking, blocking, passing, setting and positions of the players for defense are some
    techniques used while playing the game of volleyball. There are disputes over the origin
    of the game. While the game evolved in 1900, the rules were set first in Philippines in
    1916. In order to promote this game, the American Expeditionary Forces distributed
    close to 16000 volleyballs in 1919 amongst their troops and allies. Canada was the first
    country after United States to adopt this game. Summer Olympics included the Beach
    Volleyball variation of volleyball played on sand with only two team members in either
    team in year 1964. Rules of the game also evolved with time. Score points changed from
    21 to 15 and also before 1999 only the team that served the ball could make a score.
    But later this changed to current scoring system where rally point system was adopted.
    Also the dimensions of the court are important for someone to know who is interested
    in the game of volleyball. The court is 18m long with a width of 9m. The net divides the
    court into two equal squares 9m X 9m in size. The net is placed such that the top of it is
    2.43 m above ground. At 3 m on either side of the court a line is drawn which separates
    the playing area of the team into front row and back row. Some recent rule changes to
    the game include the serves to be allowed wherein the ball enters the opponent’s court
    after touching the net. Expansion of the sidelines so that the player can move and serve
    from anywhere behind the end lines is another key change in the game rules. Multiple
    contacts are now allowed for a single player while trying to pass the ball to the
    opponent’s court instead of the double –hit rule that was followed previously.
