Well first of all they make me feel like i am young again. They symbolize, for me, the togetherness you feel with you communicate without speaking and Volleyball would be completely different wthout the signals. Sometimes i feel regret when i ponder about volleyball because i had to stop playing volleyball due to an injury i received and even thought I am 18 my bones aren't as strong as they should be.

Whether you are a player, coach, scorekeeper, or spectator, learning the hand signals for volleyball is significant because you know what is called on the court, whether a ball is in or out, who receives each point. Also, there are often penalties to the respective teams, such as out of rotation or a foot fault.

They only use a little flag. They just use hand signals to show that it was out, in, or the server stepped over the line when serving!
it's where you smack the volleyball really hard with one hand.
There are many signals that are too many to list out. I used to watch my sister play volleyball and it took me a very long time to learn what I thought was all of them. I think I still have more to learn( and I play volleyball now)!
