volleyball courts

Nets divide them

Volleyball courts are the rectangular playing surfaces used for volleyball, typically measuring 18 by 9 meters with a net dividing the center.

The term covers both indoor hardwood or synthetic floors and outdoor sand courts: The beach has several volleyball courts open to the public.

Like other court sports, the plural often refers to a facility: We reserved the volleyball courts for Saturday.
