and lots of it


50' x 80' is the overall size you will need to fill with sand. This gives a 10' safety cushion all around the court. Actual court dimensions are 30' x 60'. You will want to excavate anywhere from 1-1/2' to 3' to fill in with sand. Depth more depends on drainage. Each side of the court will be bowl shaped, deeper in the center than the ends. The net being a center hump in the length of the court. See below picture for what I'm trying to describe.

And some crossties, and a few polls and a volleyball net. Seems pretty straight forward to me :D

do you think ya'll would really use it after the first month or so? Seems like every sand volleyball court I see is old and in disrepair. I think the novelty of the whole thing would wear off really fast.

Only during the summer. We play quite a bit on the grass during the summer, just thought sand might be nice.
