1.1 Defining aQuolley

aQuolley is a dynamic and innovative European brand within the realm of water sports. Its name originates from a playful combination of “aqua” (Latin for water) and “volley” (English for volleyball), aptly capturing the essence of the sport: the integration of volleyball elements into a water-based setting.

Concurrently, aQuolley also denotes a versatile water sports system that reimagines traditional ball games—including volleyball, tennis, and handball—by relocating them to aquatic environments, thus merging the advantages of both activities. Its core objective is to foster social connection through engaging games played on specialized courts.

1.2 aQuolley Sports Portfolio

aQuolley courts host six distinct water sports, collectively known as ‘aQuolley sports’.

Aquolley (water volleyball): This is a volleyball adaptation designed for play in water depths of 0.6 to 1.3 meters, featuring adjustable court dimensions, a net, and a specialized ball.
Water Badminton: A water-optimized version of badminton, it utilizes traditional badminton rackets and shuttlecocks, with the net positioned at a height of 1.6 to 1.9 meters.
Water Tennis: This adaptation of beach tennis is tailored for aquatic play, employing beach tennis rackets and balls, and a net set at 1.6 to 1.9 meters.
Water Futnet: A modification of futnet for the water environment, it involves a special ball engineered to bounce on the water’s surface, and the net height can be adjusted down to the standard 1.1 meters, depending on water depth.
Water Handball: This water-based iteration of handball features two goals, a specialized ball, and optional third-division lines for those who wish to implement beach handball rules.
Water Headball: This aquatic version of headball uses two goals, a specialized ball, and an optional court divider for participants who prefer a format without defensive field players.
Each sport within aQuolley’s portfolio boasts its own unique variations, rules, and competitive structures. Due to its prevalence, only the rules of aquolley (water volleyball) are detailed on this platform.

1.3 Key Characteristics of aQuolley Sports

Aquatic Setting: Games are invariably played in water, providing both a refreshing respite from summer heat and an inherently enjoyable environment.
Communal Nature: While playable by pairs, the communal and bonding effects of teamwork and continuous interaction are most pronounced with 4 to 12 participants.
Sporting Diversity: Each of the six core games offers a distinct and appealing experience for players.
Reduced Impact: The buoyancy and resistance of water minimize the risk of injury in these sports.
Health Benefits: The aquatic movement integral to aQuolley has been clinically proven to yield numerous positive physiological outcomes.
Fitness Enhancement: Although primarily focused on shaping rather than building muscle, aQuolley demonstrably improves coordination, and consistent, long-term engagement can significantly contribute to achieving and maintaining fitness and an ideal body weight.

1.4 Target Audience

aQuolley sports are rendered virtually injury-free by the aquatic medium. The buoyancy and resistance of water drastically reduce stress on muscles and joints, making these sports accessible and enjoyable for individuals of all ages, genders, and abilities.

1.5 The Allure of aQuolley

The appeal of aQuolley sports lies in the distinctive synergy between water and gameplay, where traditional ball games are reimagined in a dynamic new context. Water, as a life-giving element, not only cools and protects the body during extended, pleasurable activity but also offers a unique form of recreation characterized by effortless floating, playful diving, and exhilarating jumps. Furthermore, the use of water as a playing field considerably diminishes the influence of physical disparities, affording all participants a relatively level playing field to contribute meaningfully to their team. Consequently, the focus shifts from individual prowess, as typically emphasized in other sports, to collective strategy and teamwork, fostering a singular sense of community. The thrill of competition, the shared pursuit of victory, and the pleasure of light yet vigorous exercise converge to create an unforgettable sporting experience that leaves a lasting impression.

1.6 The aQuolley Platform

The aQuolley Platform: A Multifaceted Concept

The “aQuolley platform” is a versatile term encompassing a well-defined sports system, a unique experiential opportunity, and a vibrant community hub where individuals connect through water sports, both in person and online.

Sports System: aQuolley functions as a framework that delivers comprehensive water sports packages. This includes meticulously designed courts, their accompanying rules, the essential equipment, and the overarching concept for each sport.
Experiential and Recreational Setting: Beyond being a mere product or service, aQuolley provides an active and engaging recreational environment.
Community and Online Hub: aQuolley courts serve as physical spaces for social interaction, enabling people to meet, engage in sports together, cultivate relationships, and become part of a broader community. This is seamlessly integrated with the aQuolley website, which transcends the function of a simple information portal, acting as a community platform where users can exchange experiences, organize teams, publicize events, and connect with fellow enthusiasts of the sport.

2. aQuolley Sports

Sports played on an aQuolley court are designated as ‘aQuolley sports.

2.1 aQuolley Sports Overview

aQuolley sports encompass aquatic adaptations of popular ball games, including water volleyball, water badminton, water tennis, water foot tennis, water handball, and water headball.

2.2 aQuolley Rules Framework

The rules and gameplay of traditional ball games are adapted for the aquatic environment, leveraging the unique properties of water to enrich the playing experience.

2.3 Rule Significance

The appeal of aQuolley sports hinges on its rules, which strike a balance between fun and the inherent challenges of water-based play. Judicious adaptation of original rules ensures satisfaction for all participants, irrespective of skill level.

2.3.1 Adaptation Complexity

The difficulty in adapting to water arises from its significant restriction of movement, demanding rapid reactions and anticipation. A deficiency in these skills can lead to frequent player errors and easy scoring. Conversely, overly simplistic scoring detracts from the game’s essence and excitement.

2.3.2 Adaptation Efficacy

The success of aquatic adaptation lies in establishing an optimal equilibrium between scoring difficulty and movement constraints. Court dimensions tailored to player numbers guarantee realistic defensive opportunities against offensive strategies while preserving offensive freedom. The aquatic setting minimizes disparities in physical abilities, fostering equitable competition across diverse team configurations.

2.3.3 Maintaining Player Engagement

A paramount consideration in developing aQuolley’s rules is to maximize player recreation across various venues, conditions, and team configurations. Given the ineffectiveness of land-based rules in the aquatic domain, novel techniques and regulations have been introduced. For example, open-handed, cupped-palm receptions are permitted as a substitute for forearm touches, which are impractical in deep water.

2.3.4 Illustrative Examples

aQuolley (formerly water volleyball) adapts volleyball for aquatic settings. Consequently, court dimensions are specified to correspond with team sizes. Permissible touches are broad; players may utilize any body part except for throwing or executing double touches. Following a serve reception, a pass within the receiving team is obligatory before transferring the ball to the opponent’s court. Serves that contact the net and land within a valid area must be repeated. Serves must originate from within the court, making contact with the baseline.

These adaptations are intended to maintain the game’s tempo and pleasure.

2.3.5 Effectiveness Demonstration

A Siófok hotel with a court visible via a public webcam consistently displays a venue filled with players, validating the sport’s attractiveness.

11.4 Component Removal

Component Removal Procedure and Duration.

To dismantle the line module, detach the carabiners connecting the court boundary lines to the centerline, and the carabiners securing the anchor buoys to their respective anchor ropes. This process requires approximately 5 minutes for both disassembly and reassembly.

For net module removal, first, detach the net from the support posts, and subsequently, install the safety rope between the posts to preserve structural integrity. This procedure takes roughly 5 to 10 minutes per direction.

To extract the posts (and the ground screws affixed to them), gently rock each post left and right, alternating the movement, until it can be lifted out along with its corresponding ground screw. This action consumes about 1 minute per post. Reinstallation is estimated at 5 minutes per post, provided weather conditions remain suitable.

11.5 Routine Maintenance Schedule

At consistent intervals, ideally weekly, inspect the line module’s compliance, the condition of the ropes and boundary markers, and the integrity of the fixings. Similarly, a weekly inspection of the net module is recommended, verifying the proper tension of the support ropes and the absence of any damage or tears in the netting. The operational integrity of the posts and fixing components only necessitates inspection at the start and conclusion of the season.
