SKILLS IN VOLLEYBALL

PASS Also called reception, is the attempt by a team to properly handle the opponent's serve, or any form of attack.SET is usually the second contact that a team makes with the ball. The main goal of setting is to put the ball in the air in such a way that it can be driven by an attack into the opponent's court. ATTACK OR SPIKE is usually the third contact a team makes with the ball. The object of attacking is to handle the ball so that it lands on the opponent's court and cannot be defended. A player makes a series of steps (the "approach"), jumps, and swings at the ball.BLOCKING refers to the actions taken by players standing at the net to stop or alter an opponent's attack.

DIGGING is the ability to prevent the ball from touching one's court after a spike or attack, particularly a ball that is nearly touching the ground. In many aspects, this skill is similar to passing, or bumping: overhand dig and bumSETTERS have the task for orchestrating the offense of the team. They aim for second touch and their main responsibility is to place the ball in the air where the attackers can place the ball into the opponents' court for a point.LIBEROS are defensive players who are responsible for receiving the attack or serve. They are usually the players on the court with the quickest reaction time and best passing skills.

Their primary responsibilities are to put up a well formed block against the opponents' Outside Hitters and serve as a backup setter.TOSS a quick hit of the ball using the fingers if the hit is over head.
