Ten Things To Avoid When Playing Sand Volleyball
1. Never ask if the scoring is rally or the old style where you have to serve to get a point. Nobody plays the old way anymore. It is always rally!
2. Never touch the net. It doesn't matter if you are blocking or hitting, you can not touch the net. The second people see someone hitting the net with no regards to the rule, they will not want to play with you. This rule keeps people safe. If you jump into the net chances are you will injure someone on the opposing team and/or yourself. Allowing people to touch the net is like allowing everyone to double dribble in basketball. It's a rule and needs to be followed both in indoor and sand volleyball.
3. Never bring your red, white and blue expensive indoor volleyball to play with in the sand. This automatically says you have no idea how to play beach volleyball. Also avoid buying the cheap volleyballs that feel like rocks. The only volleyball you should be using should be the wilson avp OFFICIAL game ball. Not the one that says replica on it. The ball is yellow and white and can be found online. Expect to pay anywhere from $35 to $50 bucks on it.
4. Never expect to play 3's or 4's or any other number when a sand court is being played on by people that are already there and playing 2 on 2. The unspoken rule is that whomever has sat the longest plays the next game. This is an important thing to follow when playing on public sand courts. Everyone should be allowed to play and everyone should wait until it's their turn. Always make sure you know the rules of beach volleyball
