A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.
This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

If you can move around, try different perspectives. From behind each team, at the net between both teams from the side and look for the best angles. You are the photographer, so find the best shots.
You must use f-stop lenses at or below f2.8.
When I've shot volleyball I get maybe 50-60% of the shots are keepers. I try to get faces between plays when they are smiling at each other or high fiving. Action shots are much harder but the more games you shoot, the better you get at anticipating good action. Maybe 1 in 3 are good. And I've found that if you can't get faces, get butts. Your GF might not like that, but a spike from behind to me is easier to get and just as interesting as from the front...just saying.
