Sand Volleyball Attire?



hey what should i wear/not wear when playing sand volleyball this summer?..... anyone else play much? what are the benefits of playing besides it being fun? I am 23, names max, Id like to get into more sports this summer and this sounds like fun. anyone wanna play any with me?

No shirt but if needed a tank - may want to start with a tank if not used to diving for saves. Short swim trunks. Good sunglasses with a band to secure them to your head. You need to be ready to move your legs and arms freely, and playing in the sand makes it more challenging because you don't have solid ground to jump from. If you haven't played in the sand before, I'd recommend doing a lot of lunges to strengthen your calves, hamstrings and quads. You'll need all you can get for blocking, hitting/going for the kill, and especially if you do a jump serve. Oh - also, if you haven't played before at all or on the beach, find games with players that are playing for fun.....some games going on are pretty competitive and they'll be ***($&# to you and kick you out!!

not proffessionally.. but when we all play

we wear light fitting close. nothing to really impress just shorts and a tshirt. Make sure your bring sunblock. we don't wear shoes. it makes it much more fun.

have fun
Do not wear shorts with many pockets. I learned that the hard way yesterday. I would recommend a tank top over a t-shirt. Benefits include a healthy workout if you play actively and also gives you time to mingle with people, always a good thing. My friends and i just played beach-style volleyball yesterday, so we'd totally play with you if you lived in vegas. Have a great time dude.
usually when your playing sand volleyball, you wear a bathing suit. no speedos =] but if you dont want to, or if its inside or something, then i would wear a t-shirt and a pair of athletic shorts
swim trunks...
If your a volleyball plater you'll notice your timing being way off till you get used to jumping in the sand. Beach volleyball works your legs, stomache and all around cardio. Especially if you play twos. Wear regular sports shorts and a t-shirt if your worried about the sun. i play without a shirt, you just get to sweaty wearing a shirt then when you dive your shirt gets covered, heavy and uncomfortable. where from?

Good luck
