Question

Explain the following term:

Carrying the ball

Answer 1

1. Carrying the ball in volleyball, also known as a lift, occurs when a player makes lengthy or uneven contact with the ball, causing it to rest or be "carried" in the hands or arms instead of being hit or struck cleanly.
2. This is considered a violation since the ball must be played swiftly and cleanly.
3. A carry often occurs while setting, passing, or digging, and if the referee calls it, a point is awarded to the other side.
