Welcome to rec.sport.volleyball.  Your questions on court size are in
the frequently asked questions list:

Sand court info:

----------------------------------------------------------------------        
Here's a volleyball magazine article on building sand courts:
        http://www.volleyballmag.com/aug95/court.htm

But, this article by John Kessel is even better:
        http://www.xnet.com/~schneid/vball.shtml

Court dimensions are 9m x 18m  or 29' 6" x 59'.

Net height is 7' 11 5/8" for men.  7' 4 1/8" for women.  Co-ed
competition is played on a men's height net.

Sand depth by the rulebook must be at least 30cm (12")


(BTW, it's bad netiquette to jump into a newsgroup, ask a frequently
asked question, then request an email response.  Ah, AOL.  Check out:
