What is Volleyball?
Welcome to the exciting world of volleyball! From the Olympics to beach tournaments, volleyball is a dynamic team sport that involves aerobic endurance, power, speed, flexibility, and agility. The main goal is to send the ball over the net in a way that the opposing team can’t return it, securing a point for your team.
Types of Volleyball
1. Indoor Volleyball
Indoor volleyball is played in a gym and can be part of select/club teams or recreational leagues.
– Select/Club Teams: These high-level teams are for players with advanced skills. Think of them as the travel teams in soccer or lacrosse.
– House/Recreation Leagues: These leagues focus on teaching the game’s rules, basic skills, and techniques in a non-competitive and fun environment. It’s open to everyone, regardless of skill level.
2. Beach Volleyball
Beach volleyball is an outdoor variant of the sport, typically played on sandy courts. The rules are similar to indoor volleyball but with the added challenge of playing in the sand.
Whether your child is keen on diving into competitive play or just wants to have fun while learning a new sport, volleyball offers a range of options to suit every interest and skill level. So grab a ball, hit the court, and let the games begin!
