I would suggest asking your P.E/Gym teacher. But, to start you off.
Make a fist with one hand and cover it with the other. make sure you have a strong, firm triangle. This is pretty much the upper body bumping position. The swing for a bump is from your belly button to your chest/shoulders. Just give it a little power.
Setting may be a little harder to tell you over the internet. Put both hands above your head, make sure they are open hand and thrust them up when the ball comes.
Spiking is a more aggreesive approach to the ball. Depending on whether you are right-handed and left-handed.. Hit the ball with your right hand if you are right handed and vice versa. Smack it down on the other teams side.
Serving is kindof tossing the ball over to the other side. You have to hold the ball with your left handed just even with your chest/stomach(I'm pretending your right-handed) and with your right hand, make a fist and bring it back behind you, kindof underhand,and come through into the ball. One of the biggest misktakes people make is throwing it up in the air and hitting it. Dont do that. I just taught you underhand serving. i wouldnt try overhand serving for a while!
Rules...hmm...Dont hit the ball out of bounds.
you have 6 people on your team. on the court at once. So you only get three hits on one side. at a time. so lets say the other team serves, you bump it to a teamate, your teamate bumps it to the setter ( or the person who lightly tosses the ball over the net) and the setter makes it over. Good job! But if you have to hit the ball 4 times or more, sorry youre out of luck. The other team gets a point. :( Also, you can not hit the ball twice in a row. If you bump the ball, step back and a teamate has to hit it if it didnt go over. Then you are free to hit it again.
Like I said, talk to your gym teacher. Volleyball is starting up again! Maybe you would have fun being on the team. :)
What happens if your boyfriend is to busy to talk to you or hang out with you?
make your serves count. This is very important put your serves over the net. Dont try to serve hard or fancy just put it in play. Secondly learn to pass the ball by utilizing 3 hits it allows the team to place the ball in spaces better or create an attack depending on the level of play. Experience is going to be your best learning aid.Good luck and have fun.
been playing REC volleyball for 12 years.
I'm the captain of my school volley ball tema and i need to think of as cheer? any suggestion?
I played volleyball all of my life. If you want to become a good player, start carrying your ball everywhere you go. When you are just sitting around watching TV, lay back against the couch and practice 'setting' the ball a few inches above your head. Also, find an outside wall and practice hitting the ball up against the wall or into the net. Also, good players need to be quick and be able to jump. Start jogging or running regularly. Have someone tall put a piece of tape really high on a wall and practice jumping up to reach the tape. VB is a great sport but it really is tough...good luck to you and your game!Does anyone have photos from the 6-man v-ball at Manhattan Beach?
Get knee pads and wear them. Expect to break long nails so it might be wise to trim your nails down a bit. Do not be afraid of the ball..attack it by always looking at where it is going and if you can not make the play, step aside..listen for someone to shout "Got It" and squat down to let the play be made. Practice jumping in place so that you can clear the floor with your toes pointed, keeping your balance with your arms up over your head. As for strong fingner-tips..find a sparring partner that you can set the ball to and have it returned because this practice is the only way to make them strong.And above all else..just enjoy the sport and ignore any player with a short fuse!
In volleyball how would the ref deal with a player touching the ball twice in succession?
yes this is my first game of volleybal and I need some tips for playing.I coached middle school volleyball for several years. Top couple of tips from then:
* Practice serving. You can't win if you don't serve in
* Go for the ball! Until someone else calls for it, it is your responsibility to get to the ball. If you aren't sure who should get the ball, the answer is *you*.
* Have fun :-) :-)
hey. yea ive been playing for 5 years now for my school team. We've been undefeated 2 years now and have won the divsion and state title. Some tips for some1 who is just starting..i remember when i first started i was sooo nervous but its soo much fun. thats a big tip. make sure your having fun. You do alot better if you are. With serving.1. make sure you get it in the court. missing your serves is the easiest way to give the other team points and it doesnt look good for you. Also just remember you basic training. bump set spike. make sure you hav a good serve return right to you setter and then get in you position. But once again just have fun! its a great game. Have Fun! and Good Luck!!
In your opinion, what are good volleyball camps/clinics/etc? anything.?
Take the time to listen to your coach, and older players as their advice will help a lot. Serves are very important, if you can't serve then it will be very hard for you to play. Even more important than serves are the pass. You can play volleyball if you can't set or spike or serve or dig, but if you can't make a good pass you're nothing to your team. Make sure you call the ball, and trust your team mates because volleyball is the most team oriented sport I've ever heard of. In basket ball, for example, you can take a hour dribbling the ball and setting up the play, but in volleyball you have control of the ball for a second at the most, so you have to make sure that you know what to do with it. Practice is very important, and make sure you're in shape not only physically but mentally also because you could be playing in a game that lasts for more than 2:00 depending on how good your team is. I could probably think of more, but for now this will have to do.Does anyone know a group of adults that play volleyball in the Marietta/Smyrna, GA area?
Here are some of the rules in simple words:1.) You may not touch the net, go over the net, or go under the net.
2.) You have to serve from a certain spot (determined by the referee), and may not go past it.
3.) You may not carry the ball (usually accidental when setting). Carrying means to hold the ball instead of hitting it, even if it is for 1/2 a second.
4.) Your team may only hit the ball three times before hitting it over the net.
5.) If when you serve the ball does not make it over the net, it is the other team's serve.
6.) If the ball lands on your side after your team served, it is the other team's serve (same other way around).
7.) If the ball lands on your side after the other team served, they get a point (same other way around).
There needs to be at least six people on a team to fill all of the positions. The game lasts until one team gets 25 points. To serve the ball you can use three different methods: overhand, underhand, and sidehand. For overhand, hold the ball in front of you on your non-dominant hand, bring your hand without the ball up as if you are grabbing your ponytail, throw the ball straight up, and hit the ball with the hand behind your head. Start swinging your hand when the ball is eye-level, and make sure it is not too high, or too low. If you mess up, let the ball drop without touching it and try again. Overhand is (in my opinion) the most challenging, so it would most likely be in your best interest to use sidehand or underhand, whichever you prefer. To serve sidehand, stand facing the left or right, and put your non-dominant hand in front of you with the ball on it. Put your dominant hand to the side , depending on which way you are facing. If it helps, you may throw the ball up a small ways. When you are ready to serve, swing your dominant hand straight into, and a little under, the ball. To serve underhand, hold the ball in front of you with your non-dominant hand, put your dominant hand in front of you, about half a foot below the ball, step forward, and it the ball.
