For beach volleyball, there are only two players per team. However, indoor volleyball is a little bit more complicated. Each team has six players, with three at the front in the attack zone and three in the back in the defence zone.
Outside hitter: As you face the net, this player stands at the front-left of the court in the attack zone. Sometimes called the wing spiker, they often attack the ball a setter has prepared for them. While the ball is in play they can often work across the front and back row. Right side hitter: This player has similar responsibilities to the outside hitter, but they focus on the right-hand side of the court. Opposite hitter: This is the player who scores the most points in the game.
Their position is usually in the back left corner of the court. Setter: Often called the playmaker, this player is like the quarterback of the team.
They run the offensive strategies and set the ball up for the attackers to score. Libero: This is a back row player, who can only work at the rear of the court.
They usually wear a different colour top to the rest of the team and can enter and exit the game without substitution. They also can replace any other player and often swaps places with the middle blocker.
