4 person Volleyball Tournament

I played in the 4 person (on each side) Volleyball Tournament (often called Regulation Volleyball). We finished with a 4 and 3 record. The rules for Regulation Volleyball are more strictly enforced and the play is slightly more serious. But, it is still serious fun. We're all amateurs, yet many of us played our personal best on that day.
In the past years I always wanted to play Regulation Volleyball in Georgetown, but there were too many "spike it in your face" guys that didn't welcome less experienced/skilled players, and they shuffled us back to the 9 person "Fun Volleyball" court. This season, the tone was very different. The experienced players made an effort to teach and the newbies learned and got better. During the daily practice sessions, there were usually 2 or 3 courts of 4 person games going on.
Beach Volleyball is one of the primary reasons that I enjoy coming to Georgetown and will keep coming back.
