Yesterday was the weekly volleyball night.  We had a fair amount of players show up…the competition was pretty even which is nice.  The final two games of the night showcased a three on three grudge match. 

It was Team Tall vs Team Beach Bum….Obviously I was on Team Beach Bum.  The play of the night came in the first of the two games.  The score was close we were up 6-4 and serving [we play old school...no rally points].  The rotation had me setting/blocking at the net.  Gib served, the other team’s bump was long and looked like it was coming back to us so I prepared to jump.  Team Tall’s setter also goes up for the ball…a joust at the net ensues.  The ball comes to our side and we bump it into the net.  Gib keeps it alive.  All this happens while I’m on my back.  I watch the ball falling to the sand and swing my leg to kick it. 

That’s it; the dig of the night was me, on my back, kicking the volleyball up and over the net and scoring.  The other team was so stunned that they didn’t even get a hand on the ball.  Of course this play was controversial.  But we had talked about the fact that you can play the ball with your feet last week so we ended up with the point.

We went on to win that game and the next to finish out the night.
