In volleyball, the scoring system is structured so that a team earns a point when they win a rally. The first team to reach 25 points (and be ahead by at least 2 points) wins a set. A match is typically best out of 5 sets.

A volleyball game typically lasts around 1 to 2 hours, depending on the level of play and the scoring system being used.
In volleyball, a point is scored when a team successfully lands the ball on the opposing team's court. The scoring system used in volleyball is rally scoring, where a point is awarded on every serve, regardless of which team served. The first team to reach 25 points (and be ahead by at least 2 points) wins the set.

The "old" volleyball scoring system is know as "side-out" scoring which essentially means that you can only score a point when you are serving. So for example, if the opposing team serves at you, and you win that play, then it is called a side-out, and it is your turn to serve for the next point. No points are given for side-outs, which lead to some very lengthy games (if teams are just siding-out back and forth). Side-out scoring was played to 15, win by 2. The "new" scoring system is known as "rally" scoring which means that points are given on every play, even side-outs. The change to this type of scoring was an attempt to speed up games, as well as give more weight to mistakes made by players. In almost all types of volleyball today (high school, club, international, and now even college volleyball), games are played to 25, win by 2. In beach volleyball however, games are played to 21.
Usually its to 25, but if you go into a third game its played to 15, but that is for youth, I'm not exactly sure how they score in college

generally a game is to 21 or to 25. Rally scoring means that each play a point will be awarded to the team that scores the point. This is the opposite of scorinng only on serves. Rally scoring is the more common scoring in volleyball.
You don't use bats in volleyball, and you don't use nets in softball. Teams are different sizes. Balls are different sizes. Scoring system is that. Volleyball courts are very different from softball fields in size and composition.Other than that they are practically the same game.
It depends on what level you are playing at. I play on my high school team and we use rally score. We go up to 25 points and you have to be at least two points ahead to win the game. For example if the score was 25-24 the game would not be over the winning team would have to get one more point to win the game. Rally scoring is when you win the volley [the ball hits the floor on the other teams side or out on your side etc.] you get a point whether or not your team served the ball. In 8th grade we used the original scoring way. We only went to 15 points then but you still had to win by two points. The original scoring is when you have to serve the ball and win the volley in order to get a point.
The scoring system originated by the numbers on a clock face and where the points are at each quarter. 0,15,30,40(for an unknown reason the 45 has been shortened to 40)
You help with the scoring and stats. You have to make sure everything is there when there is a game (such as volleyballs, med. kit etc.).
