Volleyball is a team sport played between two teams of six players, where the objective is to score points by having the ball touch the opponent's court, while preventing it from landing on your own. The game involves hitting a ball back and forth over a net using hands and arms, with each team allowed a limited number of touches before the ball must be returned.
