According to Wikipedia, Volleyball is an olympic team sport in which two teams of six active players (five normal players and one 'libero'), are separated by a high net. Each team tries to score points against one another by grounding a ball on the other team's court under organized rules. The complete rules of volleyball are extensive, and points are awarded as follows: If the ball touches the ground outside the court area, the team which made contact with it last loses the point. If the ball touches the ground on team A's side of the net, team B is awarded a point, and vice-versa. The ball must be hit over the net to get a point.The team who wins the point then serves. The first team to reach 25 points wins the set and the first team to win three sets wins the match. Teams can contact the ball only three times before the ball crosses the net, and consecutive contacts must be made by different players. The ball is usually played with the hands or arms, but players can legally strike or push the ball with any part of the body.

Volleyball is a very exhilarating sport, and I always enjoy playing it. It is a fun sport to either play as a high school team, intramural, or even just for fun with a bunch of friends. Before practice somedays our cross country team will go in the gym and play. It is a very easy sport to learn how to play, and I would advise that everyone try it.
