Touch
Hands on the ball
Bright
The heat of the summer sun isn't even on their minds.
Stretch
Reach with all your might. Every point counts.
Vertical
Send the ball straight up and let your teammates take care of the rest.
Assistance
After coming down from an attempted block, the playe rin white sees the ball is about to come right back his way.
Early Jump
I don't think the ball will come down as fast as this player thinks it will.
Over the Top
An errant shot soars far above the net.
Ooops
Players helplessly watch the point slip away.
Penalty Two
The shot is fired, will it go in?
Serve in the Sun
The incredibly bright sunlight didn't make it easy to serve without sunglasses on.
Penalty One
Even in friendly games there are still occasions for penalty shots.
