It seems like they could play just as well in shorts and t-shirts!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17100746061554733157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751268222438366730.post-40969870202032868582008-08-16T16:48:00.000-07:002008-08-16T16:48:00.000-07:00Oh, I'm not even good at indoor volleyball!

It is WAY ...Have you ever played beach volleyball? It is WAY more difficult (at least for most people, namely ME) than indoor. That is why most beach players used to play for years indoor. It is harder to jump, harder to run and you have a much bigger area to cover. People who are good at beach volleyball are incredible athletes.<BR/><BR/>I do agree that it would seem much more "professional" if the uniforms were different. I am really not sure why they didn't try to change to something more athletic. <BR/><BR/>It took until 1996 to get it as an olympic sport. AVP tournaments are hugely popular (the attendance is much higher than indoor) and it is not just because of the bikinis. *wink*Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03902589811626771148noreply@blogger.com
