Forearm Pass/bump - Method of passing the ball by bouncing it simultaneously off of both forearms.
Set/Overhead pass - Overhand technique of putting the ball into the air close to the net for the spike. Usually the second hit after the forearm pass.
Spike - Striking of the ball with the hand above net height to send the ball forcefully downward into the opponent’s court. This is the ideal third hit in a series. “BUMP, SET, and SPIKE” is the ideal offense attack.
Serve - Method of putting the ball in play (from behind the end line of the court). The serve must be made from within a service area from right side line to the left side line.
Block - A defensive play by one or more of the front row players meant to intercept a spiked ball. The block does not count as a hit.
Dig – Passing of a powerfully spiked or hit ball. The back row players are responsible for digging the ball and keeping it in play.
