Volleyball jump measure?

Question

I'm 5"6 and our school doesn't have vertex to measure our height. We practice in a court that's height is for the boys and when i jump i reach up to my wrist. My question is approximately how high am i jumping from a woman's court point of view?

Answer 1

Are you talking about the height of the net?  If you are...the height for girls is 7'4 and 1/8...but for guys it's 7'11 and 5/8.

Answer 2

using the information that the above person gave me about the net size, you said that you reach over the net with your wrist in a boys net.  So all you have to do is go down 7 inches from the wrist  and it'll tell you what part of your arm will reach over the net.  For me, it'll be almost my elbow, but you should be around there because im 5 7.  Hopes this helps!

Answer 3

Your wrist is about 6 inches to the finger tip.  And as mentioned above here, the boy's net is about 7 1/2 inches taller than the girl's net.  Your fingertips would be about 8'6" above the ground and about 13 inches above the women's net height.  You can measure your standing reach with a wall and a ruler.  Subtract that number from 8'6" and you will get your jump.
