This season the varsity volleyball team changed their positions and had to gain new positions. For this season of volleyball Jones is an “OH” (an outside hitter). An outside hitter is the player who hits and blocks on the front left side of the court for offense. The outside hitter gets a lot of swings at the ball in their matches. In a match, Jones best play in a match is when  she is hitting the ball on the outside of the court. This season Jones is planning to get scholarships for volleyball.

Volleyball usually has six players on the court at a time, in which a large ball is hit by hand over a high net. The aim being to score points by making the ball reach the ground on the opponent’s side of the court. The purpose of volleyball is to have exercise but also it will increase speed, attention and strength.
