VOLLEYBALL｜3 TIPS ON HOW TO CHOOSE A VOLLEYBALL (2024)
Foam, polyurethane, synthetic leather: there are plenty of materials and complicated words to be found in this sport. We tell you everything you need to know!
Beginner: Volleyballs coated in soft foam are ideal for beginners. Why is that? When you start playing the game, you have to get used to your forearms striking the ball. It goes without saying that a ball coated in soft foam is not going to hurt your arms. You might also want to wear sleeves for added protection.
Intermediates: Synthetic leather is the ideal coating for more experienced players. Harder to the touch, these balls help you perfect your game. We can't promise you'll be smashing it on every attack, but ball trajectory will be considerably better.
Advanced: For advanced and pro players a microfibre coating is ideal. Boasting a dimpled surface, this is a ball that delivers a perfect trajectory and accuracy, worthy of your skills. Yes, our volleyballs have dimples!
And there you have it, you've got everything you need to find the right ball for you! Different materials come with a different price, you can choose the most suitable one for yourself.

The best of three games will win matches. Each non-deciding game will be won by the team that first scores 25 points with a minimum two-point advantage (no scoring cap). If there is a deciding game, it will be won by the team that first scores 15 points with a minimum two-point advantage (no scoring cap).
If your team sends the ball over the net and the defending team fail to return the ball, you score a point.You can also win a point if the other team hit the ball out of the designated court boundary. If a player on the other team makes a fault, it's also possible for your team to win a point.
Players ages 8-12 should use an official size lightweight ball. At age 8, kids graduate from an oversized to an official size ball because of their developed hand/eye coordination and knowledge for the game.
Scoring can vary by format or variation of play, but typically all volleyball is played at a minimum of best of three sets. In indoor volleyball at the collegiate and international level, matches are played best of five sets.
If you hit a ball out or shank a pass, try to stay positive. Just move on and focus on the next serve. Volleyball is a mental sport and by getting down, you will greatly impact your game in a negative way. Stay focused and intent on winning.
3: A 3 (also referred to as a 32 or 33) is a shoot set between the outside and middle hitters. Much like a combination of a 1 and a shoot. 1: A 1 (also referred to as a quick) is a low set that is set about 1' above the tape of the net for the middle attacker.
Teams need to score 25 points (with a two-point advantage) to win a set. Indoor volleyball matches are played best-of-five at the high school, collegiate and professional level, which means the first team to win three sets wins the match.
How much does a good volleyball cost? An official competition volleyball can cost anywhere from $20 to under $100, depending on the quality of the volleyball, and its materials.
The ball is out of bounds when it touches any surface, object, or ground outside the court. A BALL TOUCHING THE BOUNDARY LINE IS GOOD! The ball must pass over or between the side boundary lines as it crosses the net.
