A pass (aka bump, forearm pass, underhand move) is used in volleyball on almost every play. When someone serves it and it is about at your stomach, you want to pass, to lift the ball. If a ball is at your face, you can set without a pass. If it's in the middle, step back to make a pass. You pass on a hit, too.

When the ball comes over the net, then the person who bumps, bumps it to the setter and then the setter sets it to the spiker and then the spiker spikes it down to the other side or to the opposite team.

A bump (or a pass) is used either to get it to another teammate, or to get it over the net to the other side. Here are some more:

Bump-two arms in a v shape with the thumbs over hands

Pass-same position as a bump

Set- hands above head, space shaped like a triangle, using fingertips to hit the ball

Spike/Hit-Teammate steps up, jumps, and hits the ball with force over the net. Should hit the ground with a hard force.

Rotate-every teammate rotate to the right

Serve (underhand)-hand held up with ball in it, other hand behind. The hand swings up to drive the ball over the net.

Serve (overhand)- This is for older players. (this is what I do in games) Hand throws up the ball and the other hand swings upward and hits the ball over. (also known as a power serve)

A bump is an under hand pass using only the flat platform you make with your forearms while playing volleyball.
