 | | If anyone should ever drop by the Writing Workshop, please take a look at my entry on Volleyball. There are a couple of others already in the guide, but they do the sport no justice.
I have a wealth of experience and knowledge to rely on, so I'm more interested to know what sort of things people would like to know about. The entry is hardly begun yet, but I've set up some sub-headers indicating what I intend to include. Anyone for anymore?

Two areas I may need help to write about are how the game has spread around the world, particularly Asia, and the current state of the game around the world, especially outside Europe & USA.

 | | I think you could clarify the 3 touches rule: unless you're playing on the AVP tour you're allowed 4 touches if the first is a block.
You haven't missed any of the basic skills, but you might want to include the various names they go by e.g. Forearm pass/Dig, Volley/Overhand pass, etc.
In the 'Who Plays Volleyball?' Section you could add prisoners. It's very popular with both staff and inmates by virtue of being a true team game which is almost completely non-contact and the court size is tiny for the number of players compared to most sports. In the UK even category A prisons have teams in local volleyball leagues, although they have to play all their fixtures at home  .

| | Hey BBS - I was trolling in the FM and would like to urge you to keep working on this!!!
I love the way you've started to set it up, so just keep adding a little at a time and it'll get done!
Let me know if you'd like any help, or if yo've given up completely and I should abandon all hope.
