Why Play Beach Volleyball?
The beach game is GREAT for improving your indoor skills/game. Whatever the player weaknesses, they get to work on them a ton. Unlike the six-person game, players touch the ball every rally, and with just two players to cover the court, players learn to read and anticipate much better. Dealing with the sun and wind helps them to become more adaptable. Player height is less important outdoors - - ball control and skill are most important. It is a great way to improve players’ jumps. Communicating effectively is essential to the sport, and the game helps teammates to grow stronger together.
