Volleyball bruise?



today was my first day of volleyball training and i never played volleyball for more than an hour. because i am a beginner everytime the ball hits my platform it hurts and after practice today my arm got all purple w/ red dots...im guessing i bruised..i put ice on it but it still hurts alot i have practice tomorrow im not sure if i can play.im sure this happens to many beginner vollleyball players (well im hoping so im not the only one) soo wat do i do? how long will it last and will it still hurt that bad that i cant play tomorrow? please and thank you =]

it's totally normal to have sore arms after first really playing and practicing volleyball. the best thing to do is what you did: ice it. once you play more, you should get used to it, although you might get bruises every once in a while if you pass a really hard spike or serve. the best thing to do is suck it up. you should be fine and used to it very soon. good luck!

ur arms will get use after a just use ice and it will help a little bit
well it might be because u are not hitting it right so i hope u can play tomorrow
haha. maybe you should try to keep your arms straighter when you pass. but yes it's way totally normal. i play alot of leagues and i randomly get them everyone once in awhile. it will be sore for awhile but not like excruciating pain or anything of that sort. hah. but after your arms get use to it. passing will be amazingly easy.
when you first start it will sting or hurt and get red and itchy. after a while you start to get used to it and it wont irritate you. just ice it. i used to be like that when i first started but now im okay. so just keep practicing!
