Beach Volleyball
 
What a fascinating sport this Ladies Beach Volleyball is.

Are there any rules to it? :confused:

Ha ha I've just been looking at some pics of this sport on the BBC website and the Brazilian team have got BRA written across the front and back of their tops. Appropriate or what?

Because you blokes have always made such a thing about this sport I didn't realise until just now that it was played by men as well... I'll have to have a closer look!

Why all the hugging and cuddling after each point? Why bother with the ball, lets just have more of the scenery

Good question - how come the males seem to have normal length clothing i.e knee length shorts and so on and a lot of the woman wear revealing bikini's - though there was one fe-team who had long leggings on.
