[Ooh.  Monday morning, and someone from the Microsoft network posts a
FAQ and asks for an email reply!  Luckily rsv isn't a flame-prone
newsgroup. :-) ]


Manny,

Welcome to rec.sport.volleyball.  This and other frequently asked
questions are answered in this document:

        http://www.volleyball.org/rsv_faq.html


The court 9m x 18m.  It should be surrounded by a free zone of at
least 2m.  The space above the playable area should be free from
obstructions up to a height of 7m.

1m = 3.28 feet = 3 feet, 3.37 inches 

Best Regards,
