Pool Volleyball

[ccostan]

We purchased a 2 in 1 Basketball/Volleyball set from leslies last year. The volleyball is good but the water in the base makes it hard to 'convert' to basketball. It is a nice Volley set but don't buy it for the 2 in 1 feature. It's really 1 or the other unless you want the pain of emptying and refilling the base all day.

Just do as I did, go to walmart and get a regular volleyball set with regular poles and all. Now get a 5-6 foot piece of PVC (white) that's just bigger than the smaller poles that come with the set. Cut the piece of pvc in the middle and use a sledge/block of wood to pound each piece into the ground exactly opposite one another a foot or 2 outside pool wall. Then 2 people can put up or take down easily...just roll up the net. You can always pull up the pvc stakes at the end of the season if you like, but I leave mine. If you have some rigid pvc, you just need a net. I had friends that tried a flimsy badminton net, but they don't hold up to volleyballs well.
