There's actually quite a few terms that i realized we only really use in mens volleyball or at least more commonly in mens volleyball.

From what I've noticed, outside is becoming more popular as of recently

We actually also use ace in club volleyball a lot 😇

I think the term "ace" for me definitely came from my own experience as a tennis player along with volleyball, so I used it in both; a lot of the terms that overlap gameplay-wise (as in services/serves, aces, the baseline, etc.) are sometimes really weird to think about because i have to remember which game i'm watching or playing.

This is the same for me, and sometimes when I was newer to volleyball I forgot that you only get one serve not two like in tennis

hell ya its coach Mara!

before 2000s (or a long time ago, not sure), "to side out" meant to get the right of serving. At the time you only could get points if you were serving. Now it just means to score a point when your team is passing, usually in the first spike. There's also the meaning you are used to probably because when you don't side out your opponent is getting points in a row and the coach calls a time out and asks the team to side out. At least that's how i understand it (in Brazil).

That's so interesting, I never knew that! From my experience, everyone understands these terms differently depending on where in the world they are (their environment) and who they learned it from (their cultural values/meanings). In Canada, it is normally used as an endearing term to get your team to focus before the serve. Thank you for telling me, I love to learn about stuff like this!

@@coachmara It’s a widely used term before they changed the rules. It only means one thing, the serving team didn’t score a point in the serve and the receiving team will now be serving. No points were rewarded. They changed the rules as the match could take forever and neither team getting a point. Just like languages, sports terminologies meaning can change overtime especially if the terms are considered passe. But you’re right, it can be an encouraging pep talk by the coach of the team that lose the serve. That even if they messed up, the other team didn’t score so it’s all good.

It's more simple than this. "Sideout" simply means to win the serve. Two main scoring systems have dominated volleyball. In the past, the majority of games used a Sideout scoring system which only awarded points to the serving team. In that system, Sideout was required before you would win points. The current state of the game uses what has historically been known as "Rally" scoring to contrast with Sideout scoring. Rally scoring means that both teams can earn points for each play, regardless of which team is serving. In the era of Sideout scoring, it was common to encounter a match that might require a final set using Rally scoring. It's much less common nowadays to find scenarios where Sideout scoring is used, but it is still considered in some cases. And while the majority of games no longer use the term Sideout in reference to the types of scoring, it's still assumed that the serving team holds the advantage. So for a coach to call for "Sideout", he or she simply wants the team to win back the serve. It's also just a useful term to use in context of service rotation and substitutions, since most occur on Sideout.

Thank you so much I was looking for a video explaining the term with volleyball and you explained it so great and I understand THANK YOU!!!

One point about middles from a fellow coach and yes, it is contentious but i would rather have a shorter yet quicker and more agile middle to move (shuffle) the front row than a taller but slower middle who just jumps for the hell of it

@coachmara

10 ай бұрын

I totally agree and would add it's more ideal if the shorter middle can jump and has good timing vs a taller middle who doesn't/can't, a hot-ish take

Is there a term for the sequence of play when the ball is on your team's side of the net? I was going to guess "posession", but I think that is used to refer to the half of each rotation when your team is serving.

@coachmara

Жыл бұрын

It's typical to say the phrase "when we have or gain possession..." when referring to play on your team's side of the net, it's not only used when referencing a change in serving possession.

correct me if i’m wrong but can you TECHNICALLY touch the ball 4 times? like if i block and it comes back to my side i can hit the ball again and do the regular bump set hit? i’m like 90% sure

Technically, yes you're completely right! A block is not considered a hit in volleyball so you can do a regular bump, set, and spike off of a block. Great question Ray!

You're right! A block isn't technically considered a hit so if you block the ball and it falls back onto your side, you can hit it once more. The only thing you can't do, in concern to blocking, is blocking a serve. Big no-no in the volleyball world.
