What is the diff between an indoor volleyball and an outdoor volleyball?
825646
There are many differences between indoor and outdoor balls.  Mostly, it is the material used and how it reacts to the elements.\n\nUsing a leather indoor volleyball outside will cause it to become waterlogged - even on a dry day - due to the surroundings and the moisture (humidity) in the air.\n\nThe stitching/seams is a big difference as well - outdoor balls have stitched seams (the good ones), while the indoor balls are sealed seams.\n\nThe weight is also different.  Using an indoor ball outside on a day with just a little breeze will cause chaos - it will blow everywhere.  The outdoor balls are weighted slightly to allow for some breeze (though you can use the wind for your serve effectiveness).  \n\nUsing an outdoor ball indoors isn't really that huge a deal, but the play will be different.  Best bet is to use an indoor ball indoors.  You will get much better indoor play, and you will look like you know what's up.\n\nI own both, and I am glad of it.  Best outdoor ball is the Wilson AVP silver or gold series (very soft leather, and they are WONDERFUL in durability).  Best indoor ball (I think) is Tachikara is the way to go.  Mikasa has a good ball for indoors, too.  Go to a reputable sporting goods store and they can explain everything too you, and get you the best ball for the money (most expensive is not always the best).

Grass is the fastest surface.   The ball tends to slide on it and it favors big servers and serve and volleyers (since returning is so hard.)\n\nHard courts are somewhat fast.\n\nClay courts are very slow, leading to more rallys and making it almost impossible to serve and volley at the pro level since the returner has so much time to look at the ball.

*  IMPROVED SKILLS:  It is true that the more you play, the better you get.  Through our practice and tournament season, many players see drastic improvement. Many players go on to achieve All-Conference and All-State status in future seasons. \n\n    * NATIONAL COMPETITION:   Players have a chance to improve their skills against players from around the country.  Past opponents have included teams from California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Utah, Virginia, and Puerto Rico. \n\n    * TRAVEL:     Tentative plans call for 17-under and 16-under teams to play one tournament that will require an overnight stay in another region of the U.S.  \n\n    * THE CHANCE TO MEET NEW PEOPLE:   Friendships forged during club volleyball often carry over to the regular season and beyond.  Club volleyball teams are typically a blend of players from numerous schools.  Lake Country players often come from schools in the Classic 8 Conference, although players from schools outside the Classic 8 have also been part of LCVB. :-)

There are two types of scoring to volleyball, rally and regular point system. In Rally, the most commonly used, The point is scored by either team that is able to ground the ball on their opponent's court, goes “out” or a team fails to return it properly. In regular scoring only the team serving can be awarded a point for grounding the ball, the ball going out or the opponent failing to return. \n    Each team is allowed three touches on the ball to return it or the rally is over. If any player has a double contact (a player hits the ball twice in succession or the ball contacts various parts of his/ her body in succession), Four hits (a team hits the ball four times before returning it, Assisted hit (a player takes support from a teammate or any structure/object in order to reach the ball within the playing area) or catch the ball are considered faults or the inability to return the ball. \n     Out is the ball touching the ground out side of the lined playing court or outside of the antennae on either side of the court. \n     This is for an Official International Score sheet. On score sheet it is important to first determine which team is A & B. This is given by the head official after the coin toss. The you add the starting line up to the designated sides. Match the roman numerals on the line up card with those on the score sheet. And bubble in which one is serving and which is receiving. Mark an X in the first box of the receiving team.\n    When the game begins check the small number in the box and mark the points to the appropriate side and at the end of that player’s service write that teams score in the box and switch to the other team. This will keep track of rotation and who should be serving. This continues till the end of the match. After match scratch out all other scores in the row with an hour glass shape to block any further changes. Circle the last rotation score for each team. \n    In the event of a substitution you cross out the player that is being subbed out and write the number of the player coming in. Then mark the score at the time of the substitution. The team substituting score goes first. \n   If there is a time out write the score at the time of time out in the designated area with the score of the team requesting the time out first. \n    The libero is a defense specialist you are only allowed to have one per game. The libero must wear a different jersey from all other players. The libero is allowed to replace any player in a back row position. He/she can only play in the back row and is not allowed to complete an attack anywhere if the contact happens and the ball is higher than the net. He/she may not block or attempt to block. A player may not hit off a ball coming from the libero if the libero is in front of the ten foot line.

The same as any pro really.  Healthy.  You're not looking to put on size as thats not a factor in volleyball.  Just make sure you eat good foods that fuel well your body because volleyball is such an explosive sport.

That is a great question!\n\n"Pro" anything just means it is done professionally. Meaning the person or people performing the task are compensated/paid.\n\nIndoor volleyball is a pro sport.\n\nBeach volleyball is a pro sport.\n\nPro (professional) volleyball is just a general term to include both.\n\n:-)
