2. Defensive Specialist, this person is similar to the Libero but the D.S is allowed to hit, serve and go into front court. But the manager of the team will sub him off when he/her reaches front court.
3. Middle Hitter, this person stays in front court and is subbed off when he reaches back-court. Either the D.S or the Libero can sub on for this person. The middle hitter stays in position 3. Usually, the middle hitter is the tallest hitter and the worst passer on the team.

At Springfield College on July 7, 1986, the first game of volleyball was played. Who the exact players were is uncertain.
All players can switch in and out. The Libero can switch with out disrupting the game.
There are the same positions throughout the game, so there's a goalie, defenders, middles, and forwards.
Some coaches need players to know positions and the name of those positions. Some coaches just want you to be able to play very well. To try out for volleyball, you need knee pads(Because you'll be diving for the ball), commitment, be a team player, friendly yet fierce and skill. You need to know the rules of the game and the regulations.
