Volleyball games are a sport that involves the team. Two teams will face each other. The essence of this game is to drop volleyball into the plot of the opponent's field. Therefore each player has their respective roles to carry out the volleyball mission. While the task of each volleyball player is as follows.

In the volleyball, the server is the position in charge of starting the game. The server player will start the match by serving, which is hitting the ball towards the plot of the opponent's field area. The ball must also go through the net net. Game or rally can be if the ball can be welcomed by the opposing team and then returned to the server team. If the serve ball cannot be anticipated by the opponent, it means the server team gets a one-point win.

A server is required to master at least two techniques, namely top service and bottom serve.

The top service is hitting the volleyball with a swing from top to bottom with the palm of the hand. The ball had to be tilted up on the head and then hit before falling lower than the reach of the hand.
