What are the official dimensions of a volleyball court?

I’m trying to learn more about the basic rules and setup of volleyball. What are the official dimensions of a volleyball court used in professional matches? It would also help to know if indoor and beach volleyball courts are different.

The standard indoor volleyball court is 18 meters long and 9 meters wide. It’s split right down the middle into two equal halves, each measuring 9 by 9 meters, separated by a net. You’ll find the attack line set 3 meters from the net on both sides, which helps players know where the front-row and back-row positions are during the game.

The size of a volleyball court is 18 meters long x 9 meters wide by international rules. A net is placed in the middle of the court, dividing it into two equal parts. So, each side is 9m x 9m in size. There are attack lines, 3 metres away from the centre line on each side, between front-row and back-row playing areas. The court is surrounded with some additional free space for safe movement during play. The standardized dimensions are used in professional, international and Olympic volleyball games.

The court is divided into two equal halves by a net, with each side measuring 9 meters by 9 meters. There's also an attack line located 3 meters (10 feet) from the center line on each side.

An official volleyball court measures 18 meters × 9 meters or 59 feet × 29.5 feet, divided equally into two 9m × 9m halves by the net.

The official dimensions of a volleyball court are 18 meters long and 9 meters wide (59 feet by 29.5 feet). A centerline divides the court into two equal halves of 9 x 9 meters each, with attack lines placed 3 meters from the centerline.

 

[LibertyEagle]

The official length of an indoor volleyball court is 18 meters and its width is 9 meters. The court is split in half, with two sides measuring 9 meters x 9 meters. The attack line is 3 metres from the centre line either side. In an international competition, the net height is 2.43 metres for men and 2.24 metres for women. There is sufficient open space around the court to enable players to move safely between court rallies and defensive actions.
