SAUDI TURF TEAM Beach Volleyball Basics
Beach volleyball is very similar to the indoor style of volleyball. Basically, you have two teams on each side of the net. These teams consist of two or more players.
The biggest difference between beach volleyball and regular volleyball is the setting. Obviously, beach volleyball is played on a beach. This makes for a big difference in the attire you wear while playing. Often, people who play beach volleyball play in their bathing suits, shorts, tank tops or other common beach attire. Also, in beach volleyball, players don't wear tennis or athletic shoes, they usually were nothing on their feet. In regular volleyball, you must have shoes on while playing or the hard and probably hot pavement or court surface could hurt your feet. In beach volleyball, the court is also slightly smaller than indoor volleyball, where the court is 8 x 8 meters on each side, as opposed to the 9 x 9 meters in indoor volleyball. In addition, the beach volleyball is softer and slightly larger than an indoor volleyball. You can also cross under the net to hit a ball as long as you don't interfere with the opponents attempt at hitting the ball. In beach volleyball, the block also always counts as the first contact of the ball. In beach volleyball, players are not actually required to rotate or change positions during play. Also, the standard for double hitting while employing overhead or overhand finger passes or hand sets is stricter than in the rules of indoor volleyball. These are the major differences between indoor and beach volleyball.
