Volo Sports

My first Volo league was a competitive 2v2 men’s beach volleyball league. The league signup page said each team required a minimum of 3 players which is strange because competitive besch volleyball is almost always played with a known partner and no alternates. The rules for the league were also copied and pasted from indoor volleyball which has different rules. Other than that, the app is pretty hard to navigate. If I want to filter for beach volleyball locations, I see a full list of 50+ locations in the filter options even though there’s only less than 10 that are relevant to beach volleyball. Similar for pickups, dropins, leagues, tournaments…tab navigation across the top…it doesn’t feel thoughtfully designed. It just seems cobbled together over time and extended whenever something new was needed. Also I recently received an invite link to a tournament and when I opened the link I didn’t get deep linked to the event, it was just the home page of the Volo events are still fun, but the app is cheap.

When creating a team, you have to pick a team color for the shirts they show you the color name but there’s no visual of the color until after the team is created which has left me having to Google the color associated with the shirt which isn’t very efficient because you come up with many different shades it would be more beneficial to have the visual of the shirt color appear during team creation opposed to after
