If you are reading this, you or someone you know plays volleyball and wants to be better at it. First you must know the rules of the game and then work on you technical skills.
One thing that I have noticed is that any indoor player that practices by playing beach volleyball is a lot better than those that don't. Why is this you may ask? Well, when you play 2 on 2 in the sand you have to be faster and develop more skills and these will transfer over to indoor.
While it's good for indoor players to practice on the sand the same does not hold true for beach volleyball players to practice on a hard court. The whole point is to increase your speed by training in sand.
Being able to move quickly in sand means that you will be super fast on the hard court because of it's stability. Jumping in the sand is also a way to improve your game.
Jumping out of sand will be hard at first but your legs will get use to it and you will start jumping higher. Then when you go back to indoor you will be jumping a few inches higher with the greatest of ease because you will be use to jumping out of sand.
The form you use when jumping out of sand if much different than indoor jumping. You can't do your broad jump so you will be jumping up instead forward.
If you can learn to be a well rounded player you can play any position on the court that you desire. You may not always be playing the position you are at right now.
Doing plyometrics is another great way to increase you jump height whether in sand or on a hard court. Remember that you don't have to be born being able to jump high. You can always work on you hops and train your body to jump higher that it currently can with the proper jump training program.
