Why gym doesn't fix it for volleyball 05:19am on 23 Aug 2008 I agree. Beach Volley seems more technical to me. Players use the whole court with a mixture of spikes and dinks.

Rarely do you see dinks in indoor volleyball, or effective ones at that since for the most part the libero gets his hands to it and once that happens the advantage switches completely. Hence players are reduced to spikes nearly every shot.

I also hate the cuddling after every point and perhaps worst of all the unsportsmanship. I guess its just the nature of the game but most of the time both teams start celebrating after the point, with one quite clearly trying to con the ref into thinking it hadnt clearly touched their finger from an opposition spike. This isnt so much so in the beach version.

Ideally id have 3 players on a beach court since there does seem a bit too much space at times. But the indoor version is way too overcrowded.
