Indoor volleyball is played between two teams of six players separated by a net. Each team tries to land the ball in the opponent's court while preventing it from hitting the floor on its own side. Matches are decided in sets played under the rally-point scoring system.

Score more points than the opponent by grounding the ball in their court or forcing them into a fault. The match is won by winning a set number of sets.

• •Each team may touch the ball a maximum of 3 times before returning it (a block does not count as a touch).
• •A player may not contact the ball twice in a row (except immediately after a block).
• •The ball must cross over the net and land within the boundaries of the opponent's court.
• •The serve is made from behind the end line after the referee's whistle.
• •When a team wins the serve from the opponent, its players rotate one position (clockwise).
• •Touching the net or crossing the centre line under the net may be penalized depending on the situation.

A point is scored on every rally: the team that wins the rally earns the point and the right to serve. A set is generally won by the first team to reach 25 points with at least a 2-point lead. At 24-24 play continues until one team leads by 2 points.

A match is played as best of 5 sets. The first four sets go to 25 points (win by 2) and the deciding fifth set (tie-break) is played to 15 points (win by 2). Depending on the format or competition, some matches may be played as best of 3 sets.

The team that wins the majority of sets wins the match (for example 3 sets in a best-of-5 match). Each set must be won by a margin of at least 2 points.
