I don't know what this means (again, sorry, but I don't have a rulebook yet).

It means that there are six rotations in volleyball...the libero may serve in one of those rotations, but no more than one.

Even from the back row?  So the libero can't ever spike a ball that's above the height of the net?

That is correct. The libero is intended to be a defensive player, not an offensive player.

My only question here is "Why?"

The libero isn't intended to serve as a permanent setter. The libero's role is to be a defensive player, not to aid in getting kills.

So the libero can just go out of the game and come right back in to be the next server whenever he/she wants? You could just have the libero serve every time.
|
No, the libero may serve in only one of the six rotations.

Obviously, I just don't get the whole concept of the libero. Can you explain in simple terms what the libero's purpose is? It doesn't make a lot of sense to me yet.

See above. You also indicated that you're using NCAA rules, and you don't have a rulebook, but the 2006 rulebook is available
here. Read the book and come back with any questions you might have.
