The Rules of Volleyball: A Comprehensive Guide

The objective of volleyball is for a team to win three sets faster than the opposing team.
A team consists of 12 players, with six players taking the court at any one time, including a libero and two setters in the back row and a left side, right side, and middle hitters in the front row.
To win a set, a team must score 25 points and be at least two points ahead.
The court is 18 meters long and 9 meters wide, with an attack line three meters away from the net.
The net is 8 feet for men and 7 foot 4 inches for women.
A team is only allowed up to three touches of the ball, including a pass or bump, a set, and an attack or spike.
A team can rotate clockwise to stand at a new position after winning a point.
The team that wins three sets first wins the game. If both teams have won two sets each, the fifth and final set only goes to 15 points.
