I believe…

I believe that volleyball is the only sport we can never play by ourselves. Today, I would like to prove that from a side of a rule and the special quality of volleyball.

But at the first, I want to speak the time that I have begun volleyball. 7 years ago, when I was a junior high school student, I began to play volleyball. the trigger was that I was invited the volleyball club by head coach in those days. Now I think head coach would invite me because I was height 165cm. When I had just begun, I could play nothing. Still, it was fun to get a point and to connect a ball, and all right. Therefore, I continue to play volleyball for 7 years.

From here, I would like to advance a main subject. As I told by the beginning, I believe that volleyball is the only sport we can never play by ourselves. Firstly, I try to prove it from the angle of the rule.

According to the rule book published by Japan Volleyball Association, “It is said that the biggest feature of the volleyball is  the sport which should not drop a ball only in the ball game. Volleyball is performed by 2 teams on the court chosen as a net. 2 teams return the ball to a partner court each other within 3 times without dropping a ball in a court”. the parts I want you to pay attention in particular are “We are not supposed to drop a ball in the court.” and “We have to return a ball to a partner within 3 times of touch.”. And of course, we must not touch a ball continuously twice by ourselves. But by other ball games, even if only 1 person touches a ball, it’s possible to make a score. However, in volleyball, there is tying of a rule and it’s difficult work to get a score by the first time of touch. When these are considered, we would find out that we can never play volleyball by ourselves.

Secondly, I try to talk about the theme I showed from the special quality of volleyball. In volleyball games, there are 5 positions. The positions are Wing spiker, Opposite, Middle blocker, Setter, and Libero. Wing spiker and Opposite’s role is an attack mainly. Middle blocker’s role is a block mainly. Setter’s role is to make a toss mainly. Libero’s role is receiving mainly.  As the above mentioned, the role is various. In other words, it can be said that a volleyball game is formed by the role’s of everything functioning. Even if only 1 position functions, we can’t win the games. Conversely, even if 1 position is lacked, we can’t win. In this point, it can be said that we can never play volleyball by ourselves.

In conclusion, we can never play volleyball by ourselves. I learned from volleyball that it’s an important thing to cooperate with my company and make up with something. Therefore, I’d like to continue to play volleyball from now on while feeling delight in the feeling of achievement by cooperating with my team mate.
