Page "Volleyball" Paragraph 36

When the ball contacts the floor within the court boundaries or an error is made, the team that did not make the error is awarded a point, whether they served the ball or not.

If the ball hits the line, the ball is counted as in.

The team that won the point serves for the next point.

If the team that won the point served in the previous point, the same player serves again.

If the team that won the point did not serve the previous point, the players of the team rotate their position on the court in a clockwise manner.

The game continues, with the first team to score 25 points by a two-point margin is awarded the set.

Matches are best-of-five sets and the fifth set, if necessary, is usually played to 15 points.

( Scoring differs between leagues, tournaments, and levels ; high schools sometimes play best-of-three to 25 ; in the NCAA games are played best-of-five to 25 as of the 2008 season.
