Wasn't LSU highly rated this year?



Their #1 pair was the best in the country. If ya'll are interested in seeing them play, they will be playing in what I think is their first time as "professionals" at the event I mentioned at Coconut Beach.

While I know OP is a troll I will respond and say yes, more in the past than now.

And for the OP, since you pretend to be a short fat dude, I played with a guy for years that was probably 5-9, btw 240-280 lbs depending on the year, but an amazing beach volleyball player. He had a great serve, was a decent hitter, and was the best digger and setter on the team. When we played co-ed the women loved playing with him because he would set them perfectly. He was in a relationship/married when we played and I saw him turn down some good-looking women we met while playing volleyball.

In summary, start playing beach, practice your setting and defense, and you should get better slowly, and maybe get laid to. Also if you are serious most complexes with leagues will have teams that need extra players, just start at the beginner nets and work your way up.

When i went to manoes, i was turned away. they didnt have extra partners. i need to work on my serve and return. I can get around the court pretty well. I can spike it decently. They do have pretty women but they dont seem friendly. idk


How can i pratcice myself? Hit a volleyball against a wall or net? I need to practice hitting it back in game situations. its like tennis.

If you are serious, sign up for the facebook pages for the courts in your area and ask about finding some people who need an extra for their pick up games and such.

The one in Denham would probably be a good place to start. You can contact Jacob Dale(he kind of runs the place) and see if he can help you.

Play in 4 or 6 person co-ed league, those are more fun anyway when you start off and suck, which I'm sure you will.

I dropped playing softball 26 years ago to play Beach Volleyball at Mango's and have never stopped. The sport is addictive, the vibe and participants are chill and cool and it's actually a good workout, plus it's a "Drinking Sport"

You see some good old timers out there that can place the ball anywhere on the court and have some deceptive shots. They rely on ball placement instead of speed and power.
