Guys should not play volleyball right.?

Question

Am I right my fellow guys

Answer 1

Totally wrong, guys play volleyball all the time, and they are well-built for it, even in high school. xP

Answer 2

Yes ur right is time that there is only a girl sport for once!!!!!

Answer 3

all guys can play volleyball if they want to

Answer 4

Men's volleyball is huge in a lot of countries, just not as much here in the U.S.

And really, what sport should guys not play? We are shaped by our culture, and what we lean is acceptable.

You could bring any sport to a country that has never seen it and tell them that it is only for men or women, and then come back in ten years to see how it has been steriotyped.

Answer 5

no i think guys volleyball is awesome...i have guy friends that play volleyball and its so cool to watch them play.

Answer 6

mosdef wrong!! i think we need a guys team at my school!!

Answer 7

Uh no!!! I'm a girl, you asked for guy responses, but whatever. That is being sexist against yourself. A lot of my guy friends are on the volleyball team, and have helped me because I am on it too. Anyone that says guys shouldn't play volleyball is an idiot, and some of my friends have picked up girls at the game. ;-)

Answer 8

WRONG!!!! There's nothing wrong with playing volleyball, it takes co-ordination, & hard work

Answer 9

Nah man, I play both High School Football and High School Volleyball and I can tell you from experience that it's not easy to play competitive volleyball at a high level and it requires just as much hard work as any other sport out there. And I also used to get all that stuff from my football teammates about how volleyball's a girl's sport and all that but now they've figured out how hard it is to play at a high level.  Although, I'm pretty sure there aren't many more people out there like me who play both competitive volleyball and football.

Answer 21

dude you're a failure. steve and maria d hit the nail on the head with this one.

Answer 22

no. You're wrong and being totally sexist against yourself!

Answer 23

i used to think that... but my VB coach in school this year plays and obviously a LOT of guys play in organized VB. and i agree that football is seen as a manly sport but VB requires more athleticism from guys- and girlz! ;)

Answer 24

Not if you want to play coed VB with some hotties in shorts and tank tops...

Wrong...its a geographical thing. If you grew up on the west coast, guys VB has been well established for over 60 years. Midwest is a hotbed for guys VB but just since the 1980's. Just recently a NCAA men's VB champion came from a team not on the west coast. East coast has some interest but not that much on average. If your in Texas, forget about it, football is all that matters. There are some club teams but no high school teams. The Midwest has some great talent coming out of St.Louis, Chicago, Indiana, Kentucky and Wisconsin. I started playing men's VB in 1982 and went on to win several medals in state and USAV regional competitions until 1994. I have broken noses and fingers of oppenents so its not exactly a picnic/church game. I coached for 12 yrs as well...

You have to be an incredible athlete to play competitive VB. The only sport that strength, bulk and brute size rules is football. NBC sports did a sport comparison back in 88 or 90 around the time of the Olympics and found that USA men's VB players were the best all-around athletes of any. (Speed, quickness, agility, strength, coordination)

Wrong...guys play VB and there is nothing wrong with it.

Answer 25

Why not? I have tons of guy friends who play volleyball and are amazing at it!

Answer 26

Wrong. I coach high school boys and have been playing Volleyball over 15 years. I also coached 3 years of football at the high school level as a defensive assistant. Volleyball players are better athletes overall.

Most of the time, the guys that make fun of volleyball players and say it's a girl's sport are just insecure. They are also conditioned to believe that only contact sports count as "Man's Sports." This is unfortunate and is a reason why Baseball is even losing popularity.

I am willing to guarantee that any football player who makes fun of boys volleyball players would not be able to return 1 of 10 of my serves anywhere near (within 15 feet) of the target spot (setter). I would even challenge a football player to spike 1 out of ten perfect sets in the opposing court at at least 15 MPH. Most footballers wouldn't even be able to time their jump to hit the ball over the net and in, let alone control it enough to put it anywhere difficult to defense.

Yet, I can also guarantee that any boys volleyball player could catch a 20 yard pass from a high school QB, throw a pass 20 yards, and tackle a runner 1 on 1 in a tackle drill.

Boys volleyball in the US suffers from the sexual insecurity of young men. It's only after these boys grow up and realize that volleyball is one of the only sports available to teens that can be played competitively way into their adult lives, that they can enjoy the sport. Seeing ex high school football players starting to play volleyball in their twenties is very common for me. They often wish they would have played vball sooner.

It's unfortunate because volleyball would be much more popular if American boys were more secure in themselves.

Actually, in the school that I coach, boys volleyball (1969) existed before girls volleyball (1973). With boys volleyball losing it's varsity status from 1983 to 1999. These years off has not helped the myths perpetuated by naive boys who stereotype the sport as a "girl's sport."

Answer 27

Guys can play its cool and besides its a hard sport that takes lots of work

Answer 28

DEFINITELY WRONG HUN!

Answer 29

Your way off on this one dude...guys volleyball is awesome

I play university vball and it is so much fun to play and watch. If you sayin this is because you think it is a girly sport because you have never played it then lets see you try and do it. It is not easy and volleyball you have to be in good shape in a few more areas then some other sports. Sure it is not contact sport but it is still very physically demanding.

And if this is some sort of insentive the guy players that go to tournaments and stuff are watched by the girls from the teams, so we get attention.

Plus it is an enjoyable sport and a good time.
