# Volleyball

A game of Volleyball can be played with up to 6 people, each team can have up to 3 players. Your aim is to win the game, points can go up to 25, however if a game reaches at a tie at 24-24, the game will continue until one team has reached a 2-point lead, e.g. 26-24.

## How to play

### Receiving

It's important to have good defence for your team, as by having this you can keep the enemy team for scoring a point. To receive the ball, simply **SHIFT + LEFT-CLICK** the ball.

### Spiking

#### With a team

When you've got a team mate playing Setter, you'll have to wait until after they've set the ball for you. Once it's been set, **SPACE + LEFT-CLICK**.

#### Alone

If you're playing a 1 vs 1 game, you'll have to spike and set on your own. To do this, **SHIFT + LEFT- CLICK** to set the ball, and **JUMP + LEFT-CLICK** immediately after.

### Setting

If you're in a team, you may have to play Setter at some point. Doing so is quite simple, you'll just have to get the in correct position around the ball as it lands within the 10 foot line, and **SHIFT + LEFT-CLICK** so that the ball is set for the Spiker.

### Blocking

Another offensive play you can make is blocking the ball. To do this, you just need to **LEFT-CLICK** the ball at the correct time to get it over the net whilst insuring it'll land in the opponents side of the court.

## Court Positions

In competitive volleyball which many of the Sports Teams partake in, there are set positions which you can player, those positions are **Setter**, **Spiker**, and **Libero**.

* A **Libero** is in-charge of defence, and will receive and pass the ball to the Setter and Spiker to make a play.
* A **Setter** sets the ball strategically, communicating with the Spiker as to when they should spike the ball.
* **A Spiker** is in-charge of attacking, and will spike the ball into an open position whereever a gap is available in hopes to score a point.
