volleyball
Beach court game
Volleyball is a sport in which two teams separated by a high net try to ground a ball on the opponent's court.
Players strike the ball with their hands or arms, passing among teammates before sending it over.
The ball itself is also called a volleyball—lighter and softer than a basketball, designed for repeated striking.
We played volleyball on the beach all afternoon.
