Before you become a serious player you should know the basic rules of volleyball.
a) score a point - if it hits the floor inside the opposing team's half court. Point for your team. Your team gets to serve again.
c) end the rally - because the ball hit the floor outside of the opposing team's half court. Point for the opposing team. Opposing team gets to serve.
a) completing an action, whether its with a
that results in the ball hitting the floor on the opposing team's half court before the opposing team can contact it to get it up and back into your team's court.
b) the opposing team committing a "fault" which is a mistake or an error like
A fault is a playing action that the rules of volleyball do not allow.
c) the opposing team getting a penalty, like a sanction from the referee
A rally always begins with a serve by the team on defense to the receiving team who gets three chances to contact the ball with the third contact having to go over the net.
Then the opposing team gets three contacts on the ball to get the ball, BACK over the net...this back and forth will continue until the ball hits the floor or goes out on someone's side.
This back and forth exchange between the two teams sending the ball back and forth over the net into each other's court is called a rally.
When the ball hits the floor, the rally is a completed rally and the team who won the rally is awarded a point.
What happens...

For each new rally, the team rotates so they have a new server.
If the serving team loses the rally...
