Beach Volleyball


Introduction
The same rules apply as in the indoor game - you've just got a ton of sand slowing you down.


Equipment
Volleyball
Net
Four players

Steps;
1.Bring an all-weather, outdoor volleyball and a net system of regulation size to the beach.
2.Gather a minimum of four players (two per side)
3.Set up your court away from sunbathers, in an area where the ball will not continually roll into the water.
4.Play games to 15 points,earning a point only when you win a rally when you serve
5.Serve only once per turn and within the court lines(draw a line in the sand to mark these), or  forfeit the ball to your opponents.
6.Hit the ball a maximum of three times before it must go over the net to your opponents.
7.Bump the ball to a setter, who sets the ball for the spiker, who spiked the ball over the net (see "How to Bump a Volleyball,' "How to Set a Volleyball' and "How to Spike a Volleyball'). Do this without grabbing the ball or allowing it to rest in your hands. The same person cannot contact the ball twice in a row unless the first touch is off a block at the net.
8.Avoid touching the net at all times or lose the ball, and possibly a point.
9.Rotate player positions clockwise whenever your team has won a change in possession (called a 'side out,' it's when it's your turn to serve).
10.Play a set of three or five games. The team that wins the most games in the set is Play a set of three or five games. The team that wins the most games in the set is the winner

Rules:not allowed to touch the net and the ball has to go over the net.Server must serve from behind the restraining line  end line until after contact.

Ball may be served underhand or overhand.

Ball must be clearly visible to opponents before serve.

Served ball may graze the net and drop to the other side for point.

First game serve is determined by a volley, each subsequent game shall be served by the previous game loser.

Tips & Warnings
The less advanced the participants, the more players you'll need to cover the ground and have long rallies. It's tough to get around on sand.
