Beach volleyball rules and scoring system The first two sets are played until one team reaches 21 points - as opposed to 25 in the indoor version for its first four sets - and the third and final deciding set, if required, is played to 15 points.

Builds speed, balance, and agility: Another benefit of playing beach volleyball is it helps develop a good balance, enhances flexibility, and improves upper and lower body strength.

Three sets of 12 minutes will be played (switch ends every six minutes). The game will be stopped if another ball enters the court when a 'let' will then be played. If a ball appears to be going out it must be left to make contact with the sand, any touch on the ball will deem the shot to have been played.
