A bump in volleyball is were you but your hands together do your arms are in a v shape and when the volleyball comes over the net you want to hit the volleyball with your forearm if you hit above the elbow you are not hitting it correctly. You also don't want to cross your fingers because if you go to bump the ball and the ball it's your fingers and they are crossed it could break tyour finger(s).

"Bump" means to pass the volleyball. It is more commonly referred to as passing now. You can either pass using your forearms (if the ball is coming at you low) or with your hands at your forehead (if the ball is higher).

A bump is an underhand pass. The ball is hit on the inner forearms between the wrist and the elbow.
