Wallyball Rec at BPAC
Details
We are excited to be back indoors for Wallyball.
Saturdays are beginner/intermediate friendly.
Wallyball is a fast-paced indoor sport that combines elements of volleyball, racquetball, and handball. It’s typically played in a racquetball court, where players can use the walls to keep the ball in play. Yes, we can even serve off the wall.
We currently have 2 courts reserved from 9-11am now till May
There is a $5 cash charge for participation that goes to organizer who pays for the courts and meetup site.
- Teams: Usually 3–4 players per side.
- Rules: Similar to volleyball, but the ball can rebound off walls (except the back wall on serve). It is also out if hitting 2 walls.
- All hits must be above the waist (unlike sand volleyball - no feet)
- Net serves are not allowed in wallyball but are valid in volleyball
- Only 3 hits per side
- Note: Open hand lifts are not allowed (its a ball carry)
- Scoring: Rally scoring (point on every serve), to 18, so both courts end about the same time.
- Play Style: Faster and more dynamic than volleyball because walls keep the ball in play, creating quick reactions and longer rallies.
It’s known for being energetic, social, and a great workout that challenges reflexes, coordination, and teamwork.
We have been playing this for years and some of us are still addicted.
We may go down to 1 court if we do not have 12 people. RVSP's do matter.
