Volleyball
Volleyball is a team sport, with six rotating players, separated from the other team by a high net. However a casual game can include any number of players. Players are set in 2-3 rows. Generally games will include 9 innigs, with 3 servers per team per inning. You can only score a point when it is your team's serve.
A volleyball court or play area must include boundary lines that mark out of bounds. The server will serve the ball from just outside the rear boundary line.
