Unbalanced forces are important in order to move anything. An object under balanced forces does not move. For example as you sit in your chair reading this, gravity is exerting a force on your body downwards but your chair balances this force by exerting a force upwards on you that is equal and opposite to the force of gravity. These two forces oppose each other and therefore you do not move. In tennis in order to change the direction of a tennis ball you need to exert a net force(an unbalanced force) in the direction you want the tennis ball to move. In tennis there are also unbalanced torques(a force acting at a distance from a pivot point) on the ball that cause the ball to spin. Hope that helps.

Unbalanced forces in volleyball occur when one team applies more force than the other, leading to the ball moving in the direction of the stronger force. This can happen during serves or spikes when one team exerts more power, causing the ball to be hit harder or faster towards the opposing side. Players need to anticipate and react to unbalanced forces to maintain control of the game.

When a volley ball hit by a player, the forces on the ball are not balanced, and the ball will accelerate in the direction of the force of the contact with the ball.

(Even when the ball is in midair, the forces are not balanced because of gravity. In this case, the ball will accelerate down.)
