Why Play Beach Volleyball?
Doubles Beach Volleyball provides the best environment for learning the game and refining every skill in the game. Two-on-two results in random, game-like volleyball experiences coupled with an outstanding number of contacts per person. The more your players touch the volleyball, the better they will become. As we like to say, "The game teaches the game."
In Beach Doubles, if I cannot set very well, I am going to become a better setter because the other team will serve my partner forcing me to set every time. This is true for all other volleyball skills as well (hitting, passing, etc.).
Each player must improve and master every skill of the game, as opposed to mastering one skill. Both players on a team must pass, set, attack, serve, block, and dig. This makes us better all around volleyball players.
For example, Karch Kiraly, Kerri Walsh, and Misty May were all incredible indoor players because they played doubles beach volleyball early in their volleyball careers.
