In soccer (Association football), it is usually a foul to deliberately handle the ball, that is, to control or touch the ball with any part of the hand or arm. Ball-to-hand is a determination by the Referee that the ball's contact with a player's hand or arm was not deliberate because the ball moved to the player's naturally-positioned arm, as opposed to the hand or arm moving to contact the ball, or is otherwise incidental to normal play and should not constitute a foul.
It is worth noting that many players (and coaches!) often call on the referee to stop play for a handling offence in ball-to-hand situations. This annoys referees, because it is not the proper interpretation of the Laws of the Game. However, this happens a lot, probably because so many people incorrectly call the infraction "hand-ball", which leads to confusion about what constitutes commission of the foul.

Service line in volleyball?
I have played Volley Ball for three years on varsity. When you serve this ball, it means that your team has possesion of the ball. you stand behind the service line and you wither do a over-hand or under-hand service. the ball goes over to the other team. they will then get a chance to pump the ball to the setter. and the setter will set the ball to one of the opposite hitters or back row attackers to get a point on the other team. . . . . . . . . . . hope this helped =)
