A volleyball team has 6 players on the court at a time. These players take on specific roles and positions, such as setter, middle blocker, outside hitter, weakside hitter, and libero. The team is split into front and back rows with three players in each row, and they rotate positions as play continues. This is true for standard indoor volleyball. Beach volleyball differs, typically featuring teams of two players. The 6-player team format is the standard in competitive volleyball, including Olympic and professional levels.
