Beach volleyball presents an excellent opportunity for vacationers to build camaraderie and enjoy outdoor recreation while visiting Hawaii's shores. This activity doubles as an effective team-building exercise for groups.
A Brief History
The sport traces its modern roots to Waikiki Beach in 1915, with the contemporary two-player format emerging in Santa Monica during the early 1920s. Olympic recognition came in 1996.
Game Format
The match features two teams of two players competing on a sand court. Similar to traditional indoor volleyball, players direct the ball across the net toward the opponent's side. Teams receive up to three contacts to return the ball, though individual players cannot touch it twice consecutively except following a block. Play begins with a serve and continues until the ball lands on the court, goes out of bounds, or a fault occurs.
The team that wins the rally scores a point and serves next.
