The rules

the basic rules of volleyball:
There are 6 players on the court, 3 in the front row and three in the back row and three in the front row. The game starts with a serve from the person in the right back position. Once on the other side of the net the team is only allowed three touches on the ball before sending it back over the net, but one player cannot hit the ball two times in a row. A player is not allowed to touch the net, or step underneath the net during a point. The players must be in a specific rotation until the person serving has contacted the ball, and then the players can move to their position, or else they will be called out of rotation and the other team will receive a point. Each time a team wins a point on serve-receive (the other team is serving) the team rotates over one position. During the game, each team is allowed two time-outs and a certain number of substitutions. A match is played best 2 out of three and each game goes to 25 points, but the team must win by 2 points. A point is given when the ball hits the floor on the other team's side or when a ball is hit out of bounds.
