I used to play volleyball in high school and loved it. There is a club team I can join that plays on Fridays but I'm so scared I will so suck.

Anyone left it for so long and have it come back to you?

    Hi there, I left the sport for about 15 years. I am now 39 and have been playing again for the last 4 years. It was tough at first because I felt I had to learn the game all over again. But now I play 3 to 4 times a week competitive indoor and out door. I love it so much. I would recommend that you jump on that club team and have some fun.

    I played intramural in HS since we didn't have an official guys team and would play beach vball in the summer. Started playing last year again and it came back fairly quick. Playing three nights a week this time around and love it :-)

    So after this post I didn't play for a for a few weeks and then when I wanted to it was closed for the holidays.

    I played yesterday and it was so.much.fun.

    And I didn't suck. Very happy to be playing a sport again...much more fun than solitary gym time.

    Thanks for the encouragement.

    I'm playing again on Friday :)
