My favourite sport is volleyball. I play it at school at my PE lessons and after school with my friends on the sport ground. Volleyball is a team sport in which two teams of six players are separated by a net. Each team tries to score points by grounding a ball on the other team's court. The game has strict rules. The ball is usually played with the hands or arms, but players can strike or push (short contact) the ball with any part of the body.
There are different techniques in volleyball blocking, passing, setting , specialized player positions and others. It is interesting to watch volleyball matches on TV when high class teams are playing. I would like to be a good volleyball player and take part in competitions
