Regulation court
The regulation volleyball court will be 9 meters wide by 18 meters long, which computes to
approximately 30 feet by 60 feet. There is a frontcourt and backcourt on each side, with the 10 foot long
frontcourt twice as small as the 20 foot long backcourt. The height of the net is different for men than it is
for women. The men will have the top of the net set at 2.43 meters, or 8 feet, while the women play with
the net set at 2.24 meters, or 7.4 feet. The volleyball net is supported by two posts that are 8 feet 3 inches
high. The net itself stretches for 31.5 feet across the court and is 3 feet from the top to the bottom.
Scoring
 Two types of scoring are used in volleyball. The sideout scoring system is quickly being replaced at
nearly all levels of volleyball by the rally point scoring system. In sideout scoring the team serving is the
only one that can score a point and the teams play to 15 points per game. Matches that go to best two of
three or to best three of five will see the scoring go to the rally point system in the tie-breaking deciding
contest. In the rally point scoring system a point is scored on every serve, or rally. Games go to 25 points
under this system with both systems requiring that the winner of a deciding contest win by at least two
points.
Basic serving rules
 The play begins when a player serves the ball from the back right-hand portion of the court. Volleyball
serves consist of throwing the ball up and then hitting it with one hand in an attempt to get it over the net.
The serve can be underhand or overhand, with overhand serves dominating the higher echelons of the
sport. A player gets one chance to serve and he or she may move about the service area and even jump
while trying to serve. The player cannot cross the end line of the court, however, before serving the ball. If
the serve hits the net and drops over onto the opposing court, the serve is legal and a point is scored for
the serving side. Serves that are not touched by the opposition and go out of bounds after crossing over
the net are not legal and the opposing side will garner a point under the rally scoring system. A player
serves until their side cannot successfully return the ball to the opposing side.
Volleying rules
 When a ball comes over the net, a team must try to return it to the other side before it hits the floor.
Players can hit the ball back to the other side but in most instances they will keep the ball alive on their
own side of the net so that another teammate can forcefully return it over the net. Balls that are hit by two
players at once from the same side cannot be touched by those players again until another teammate has
hit it. Balls hitting the net are in play and if a ball touches the floor on a boundary line of the court it is
ruled to be inbounds. Players cannot block serves at the net. Players are also not allowed to touch the net
while the ball is in play or reach over the net unless following through after hitting the ball or when
attempting to block a returned ball from the other team.
