the Volleyball 

This term (term 2) I’m playing VOLLEYBALL🏐!!! Volleyball is so intense! You have to try and get the ball over the net or over to a teammate so they can get it over the net! 

There are 3 different ways to get the ball over the net. 

1. The ‘Spike’ When you come close to the net and use one hand to hit it over the net. 
2. The ‘Set’ When you use both hands to push the ball into the air so one of your teammates can get  it over.
3. And the ‘Dig’ The dig is hard to master but when you get it, it’s easy! You hit the ball with your forearm to get it over. Here is a picture of how to dig.

So far my team have won all our games. In Volleyball you can’t be afraid to use your voice to call for the ball. If you don’t, you could end up in a collision. You always have to be paying attention and making sure you know where your teammates are and where the ball is. 

If you ask me what I need to work on, I would say my serving and digging. I really need to make my serves deeper (more into the oppositions court) so we don’t loose that point. With my digging I think I just need to be more confident. 

Volleyball is a fun sport for all. Even if you have never played it before you will love it! Give it a try and tell me what you think. See ya!

What is your favourite sport?
