Ok, so I played volleyball for over 10 years and I try to tell my friends that volleyball players have a whole different body shape a lot of the time. So I just wanted to see how many former or current volleyball players we have out here on MFP...represent, let's all be friends! LOL

    Girl yes! I miss it sooo much too. Funny thing is, when I was playing volleyball, I like softball more. But now I miss that feeling of just spiking the hell out of a ball in someone's face Hahaha. It was such a great stess release LOL

    I am a volleyball player and even at my weight I play about 3-4 nights a week most weeks. Sometimes weekends. I play B level co-ed quads.

    Funny that I saw this post today....because tonight....for the first time in my life. I am playing a co-ed doubles league. I really have no business doing it....but I've always wanted to play doubles at least once, so I went for it. Now...I am under no illusion that we will place anywhere but last....LOL.

    I'm 5'9" and weigh about 330 lbs. I am 46 years old. Even at this weight, I've never missed a season of organized sports. But, if I don't do something soon...I feel the stress on my joints and bones. :( I don't ever want to give up my sports though.

    You know what...I was looking a few months back and I saw club teams but not much else...I must do some more research because that would be so much fun.

    Yes do it...... We have sand courts and indoor around here and leagues are going at several places year round. Do you know if there are leagues in your area. If not, I'd be happy to check with the owners of the places I play to see if they have networking connections in your area? Also, our local YMCA's have leagues.

    We just started our Fall Sand Vball league! LOVE IT! I miss playing so much! It was the best time of my hs and college career! And yes smacking the crap out of the ball was a HUGE stress relief! :-)
