Beach Volley betting

Beach volleyball is played on sand resulting in the movements being slower and the vertical jump height becoming shorter. The sand can be difficult, and as it continually moves under players' feet, it causes fatigue.

Indoor volleyball is a power game with heavier balls. The balls tend to move faster and can be hit harder. Beach volleyballs are softer, lighter and a little larger than indoor balls. The lighter weight allows them to float more in the air, allowing good players to use the weather to their advantage.

But one thing is clear: starting the year in Elite 16 will be a valuable advantage. The format of the competition involves four pools of four which will give culminate in a single-elimination final phase.

The Challenge group will be much more crowded as it will be composed of 32 teams. Twenty-four teams of men and women will participate in a group phase with qualifications. Finally, the Futures group will be composed of mainly local young teams to develop a sporting sense of beach volleyball in participating countries.
