DIFFICULTY
SETTING
Outdoor
MATERIALS
- A volleyball or similarly heavy ball
- A high net or rope
- A wager item, traditionally kept in a shared pot ('mano')
MEASUREMENTS
Court roughly 12m x 6m, net height around 2.7-3m (higher than standard volleyball).
HOW TO PLAY
1
Split into two teams of three players each, positioned on opposite sides of a high net.
2
Serve the ball over the net using an open-palm strike; play continues with each side allowed three touches to return it.
3
Because the ball is heavier and the net taller than in standard volleyball, focus on strong overhead strikes rather than soft sets.
4
A team scores when the opposing side fails to return the ball over the net within their three touches or hits it out of bounds.
5
Play to an agreed point total, then rotate players so everyone experiences serving and net positions.
