In volleyball, points are scored when a team successfully lands the ball in the opposing team's court, or when the opposing team commits a fault. A team can also score a point if the opposing team fails to return the ball within three hits. The first team to reach 25 points (and leading by at least 2 points) wins a set, and the match is typically played as a best-of-five sets.
