I assume by “pants” you mean the British way or saying “Panties”, or women’s underwear. But either way, the official rules regarding the uniforms, including the bottoms, are outlined by the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB). According to the FIVB regulations, the bottom part of the women's beach volleyball uniform can vary in style but often includes the following types: Bikini Bottoms, or Shorts which some players prefer instead of the bikini bottoms for additional coverage. Players have the option to wear one-piece suits, although it’s far less common than the bikini bottom.

What can I say, I loved playing beach volleyball, although I was never very good.

Honi soit qui mal y pense as they say in old French, Shame on him who thinks evil of it. Bikinis are perfectly good beachwear and girls shouldn't feel pressurised into leggings just to stop guys knocking one out in front of the TV.

Can you imagine the pressure of trying to score knowing millions of guys are shuffling away as they stare at your arse. This is why I like to wear a short sun dress to the beach because it won't arouse impure thoughts in men. Perhaps that would be an option for the sport.

Yeah bikini and I feel the competitors rather wear a bikini so they don’t get so hot and the probably how they play and practice all the time. They only wore pants cause it was raining and a little cold. Also they might be more comfortable and like looking a little sexy.

" They " are going to vote bikinis , honestly I'd like to see the skill in the sport , so whatever the teams are happier in , if I was running the sport economically , I'd probably be pushing for bikini..

So C - Either , please yourself.

Beach volleyball is all about agility and comfort, right? Personally, I think athletes should wear whatever they feel most comfortable in, whether it’s bikinis or long pants. Comfort can hugely impact performance, so giving women the choice is fantastic. It also adds a layer of personal expression and can help them play their best game. What’s your take on it?

Neither for me. I’d play in Shorts

Daniela1982 · Answer

Seems pretty common for small bikinis.

Skinhead-1979 · Answer

Difficult one.

I'd be lying would I say I am not staring at the female bodies and that I don't enjoy it.

But from a complete Sports and Competitive point of view I find it needless. I feel it draws the attention away from the sport and competing itself. That's what matter, and I feel it shouldn't be 'sexualised'.

Respect to female Muslim athletes who cover themselves and their hair up while competing.

I prefer to watch them in bikinis. But i understand the benefits of wearing pants! Nobody likes nitty gritty in their nooks and crannies.

exitseven · Answer

nobody would watch it if there were no bikinis.

Kelley1 · Answer

Bikinis will attract more men viewers which is a good thing. Moreover, since most female Olympians are beautiful and since beautiful women like attention, I believe most will choose bikinis.

KostasKouvalis · Answer

Bikinis please. I was most surprised that the Czech girls wore them

I love bikini bottoms, I am a dirty old man plus I think she would have movements restricted by pant type bottom. I would also think it would be harder to get any sand that could get into the pants out.

RebelinSteel · Answer

I don’t care really, it is however the usual thing of sexualising a sport.

Bikini. I'm actively rooting against all the teams showing up in pants.

DrPepper12 · Answer

I chose bikini but frankly it's none of my business. It should be the sport not the dress that matters.

andreasderjuengere · Answer

We always ignore nude beaches when it comes to volleyball. I find that unfair.
