    For those of you playing, here's a heads up. There's concrete not too far beneath the surface of the sand. I found out the hard way. Same game I had my finger dislocated, I slid on my knees underneath the net at an attempt at digging a ball that had been hit into the net and put a quarter size hole on my knee where it tore all the skin off. It took over a month to heal completely.

    Thanks for making this point. When I was there in December there was a group of eastern European guys there who were way too competitive, and were coming down on their opponent's legs when playing at the net. I would not play when they were playing because I was afraid of getting hurt. A little competition is fun, but no one wants to break their leg on vacation, or feel like you are not welcome to play because you are not "good enough".
