Volleyball Court
A team sport featuring two teams of six players. Each team aims to score points by striking a ball over the net and grounding it on their opponent’s side of the court.
Volleyball has featured at the Summer Olympics since 1964 and medals have been very evenly distributed in the event’s history. The Soviet Union still lead the overall medal table, with 12, whilst Brazil and the United States are just behind on 10 apiece.
One of the teams begins a ‘rally’ by serving the ball – which is done by tossing, or releasing it and then hitting it with a hand or arm. The opposing team are then allowed a maximum of three ‘touches’ to return the ball over the net and play continues.
