Question

Explain the following term:

Dead ball 

Answer 1

1. A dead ball in volleyball refers to when the ball is no longer in play. This occurs after a point is scored, a fault is committed, or the referee blows the whistle to stop the play.
2. At that point, the ball is declared "dead," which means the rally is over, and play will pause until the next serve.
3. A dead ball is most commonly caused by a ball landing out of bounds, a net violation, or an illegal hit by a player.
4. Play continues when the ball is served again following the dead ball situation.
