Volleyball is played by two teams of six players on court at any one time. Players try to score points by grounding the ball on the opponent's court under specific rules. When the ball is served into play, a team can touch the ball three times (exclude blocking) on its side of the net. Volleyball games are played to 25 points. The first team to score 25 points (and be two points ahead) will be awarded the set. Matches are determined through the best of five sets and the fifth set (if necessary) is usually played to 15 points.
