The basics of the game:
Catch´n serve is a team ball game resembling volleyball. It is played by two teams of 6 players in a volleyball court with a volleyball net. The object of the game is to pass the ball over the net to ground it on the opponent's court, and to prevent the same effort by the opponent.
The main difference between Catchball and Volleyball is that in Catchball players must catch the ball with both hands before they can pass it on. The ball is put in play with a serve, thrown over the net to the opponents. The rally continues until the ball is grounded on the playing court, goes "out" or a team fails to return it properly.
Catchball uses a rallypoint scoring system. Teams score a point on every rally, regardless of the serving team. The team winning a rally scores a point. A team can touch the ball up to three times on its side of the net, before returning it to the opponent's court. All matches are played as a "Winning Sets" system. A team wins the match if it wins in two sets. The first two sets are scored up to 25 points, while the third set (if played) is scored up to 15 points
