Sand Volleyball in Vero Beach: Nine Courts at Vero Fitness

Nine Courts, Right Behind the Club

Most people driving down 6th Avenue have no idea what is behind our building. Tucked at the back of the Vero Fitness property is Vero Beach Volleyball, a nine-court beach facility and the premier sand volleyball destination in town. It is real sand, real nets, and a real community of players who show up week after week because the game is that much fun. If you have been looking for a way to get a workout that never feels like a workout, this is it.

You Do Not Need Experience to Play Beach Volleyball

Beach volleyball is one of the fastest growing sports in the country, and the reason is simple: it is welcoming. You can arrive having never touched a volleyball, or you can arrive prepping for a college scholarship, and both of you have a place on these courts. We host pick-up play, adult and junior leagues, and tournaments, and all skill levels are genuinely welcome. Pick-up play in particular is the easiest way in. You show up, you get folded into a game, and an hour later you have met half a dozen people who will remember your name next time.

Learn From a Pro Who Has Played at the Highest Level

Professional training at the courts is provided by C to C Sand Volleyball Training with resident pro Matt Heath. Coach Matt competed professionally on the AVP Tour and has played in fourteen different countries on the FIVB Tour, the highest ranking international tour in the sport. He has trained alongside legends of the game and now serves as a High Performance coach for USA Volleyball's Florida Region, identifying and developing the best players in the state. What makes him worth seeking out, though, is not the resume. It is that he teaches proper beach technique in an environment of positive reinforcement, and he makes training fun. That combination is rare.

Why Sand Is Such a Good Workout

If you have only ever played on a hardwood court, the sand will humble you in the best way. Every jump, sprint, and dive costs more energy, which means a casual two-on-two game quietly turns into serious conditioning for your legs, hips, and core. Sand is also forgiving on your joints, so you get the cardiovascular benefit and the explosive movement without the pounding. Add the Vero Beach sunshine and a breeze off the coast, and it stops feeling like exercise altogether.

Build the Strength That Shows Up on the Court

The players who improve fastest are usually the ones training off the sand too. Because the courts sit on the Vero Fitness property, your membership gives you everything you need to support your game under one roof. Work on explosive power in our Sports Performance Training studio, build a stronger base in the Powerlifting Gym, or take a mobility-focused class from our live schedule to keep your shoulders and hips healthy through a full season of play.
