The club is treated an obstruction. The ball is played as is and the obstruction may be moved.
What happens is the ball deforms which then flattens then returns to its normal shape which then makes it bounce. As for what happens rules-wise when the ball hits the ground, not a lot. The ball is on the ground for a fair portion of the game, which can lead to heavy contact when players vie for control of the ball.
No, it's not allowed, once the ball drops to the ground its over. unless the ball does a first bounce or second bounce.
The ball speeds up as it travels to the ground as gravity pulls it down to make it go fast.

In rugby, a loose scrum formed around the ball when it is on the ground .
The guy gets a headache!
The most important effect of gravity in hockey is that it keeps the ball on or close to the ground. For that matter it also keeps the players on the ground.
Who has dropped the ball? The referee?! If the referee drops the ball after he interrupted the game the ball is in play when the ball touches the ground. It isn't allowed to score a goal directly from a dropped ball, two players have to touch the ball before the goal counts.
It freezes into a ball of ice before it hits the ground.
The first baseman must "have control of the ball". If his hand is on it pinning it to the ground, the call is safe. If he picks it up or in any other way, shows he/she has "control" of the ball, the call is out.
Soccer players can effectively defend against free kicks by forming a wall, jumping to block the ball, and positioning themselves strategically. Lying down behind the wall can also be a useful technique to block low shots.
When a falling ball hits the ground, it experiences a sudden change in momentum and kinetic energy. The impact causes the ball to bounce back up due to the conservation of energy and momentum.
