Reddit mentions: The best indoor volleyballs

I think you'll need maybe strength training to get back into the groove of things. Especially for further sets or bad passes a lot of times positioning, foot work, and leg strength, and finger strength is needed to get the ball to go where you want it to go! Firstly I really recommend getting a lightweight volleyball sized ball like the ones in Walmart just to practice form. Here's a link to how to set properly and there's also a ton of videos on YouTube. ^^form is important to help save your wrists and fingers from injuries^^ I cannot stress this enough. So really get your form down before getting the heavier balls! After you get your form down you more or less can start easy self drills like just setting against the wall with a volleyball just to get the hang of how a ball feels. Also something I think is highly under emphasized is footwork! I honestly think Footwork drills are super important in helping you get into form and making it easier to get the ball to where it needs to go and personally I always forget about my footwork after a breako! If you find yourself needing more strength to set balls from anywhere on the court. If you're starting out as a setter there are weighted volleyballs to help finger strength grow and you can tape your fingers to give your hands added support while you make a comeback. Repetition is probably your best bet for accuracy! I hope this helps! If you have any questions feel free to message me! I'm not really sure I covered everything and most of this comes from experience so please feel free to add on or correct anything I missed!

If your willing to spend the money, definitely go with the Molten Flistatec volleyball, which can be found here: (http://www.amazon.com/Molten-FLISTATEC-Volleyball-Official-White/dp/B0063NDCGW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1417663511&sr=8-2&keywords=molten+volleyball). If that is too much outside your price range, then definitely go with the Mikasa 330. I have used both and while they are both great balls, the Molten Flistatec (which is the main ball we use on my club team) definitely is the superior ball, and is used in all major NCAA teams and championships, albeit more expensive.

To add onto what's already been said, Google your area and see if you can find any club programs to get some coaching. For example, many clubs near me offer lessons to juniors 1 night of the week, usually Friday. I'm in NJ, but I assume this isn't something special to here.

If you can, try to play some sand/grass over the summer. It'll get you actual game touches, and since it's doubles, you get to work on a lot of skills simultaneously, unlike indoors. Personally, I prefer sand, it's easier on the body when diving for me. The drawback is that you're typically not as explosive on sand as grass or indoors.

As for a ball, this is my favorite

PS - I'm hoping for Season 4 in Fall 18, such a good show

I'd be willing to bet you're actually referring to the "pro touch" that was the standard in men's ncaa before the "flistatic" took over. The "super touch" was - and still is - the ball used by women's ncaa. They look similar but the pro touch has less padding and as such stings a little more on receive and requires adjusting if you go for an overhead pass / set if you're accustomed to more padding (the reverse is true when going back to the super touch)

I've used a D43 ( https://www.amazon.com/Mikasa-D43-Olympic-Replica-Volleyball/dp/B003WCOMMU/ref=sr_1_12?s=team-sports&ie=UTF8&qid=1519651869&sr=1-12&keywords=volleyball ) for over a year now just volleying and passing against brick walls and stuff and it is perfectly fine, for the price it's better quality than you'd expect and it's pretty durable.

I just bought [This one] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0063NDCGW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and its legit. Pretty good so far and definitely worth the money.

Keep the ball you have for outdoors.

Everyone who I played with loves the HS game balls since they feel the best link

But those balls don't last at all. If you're looking for longevity, get a composite ball link No one really had a problem with these since teams practice with them all the time.

the international balls were never popular wherever I played

the college balls were okay too.

If he doesn’t already have one, a new ball would be great

Outdoor balls are normally a little bigger and lighter than indoor balls, as well as being a different texture and more rugged.

As for indoor recommendations, assuming you're in the US, either the NCAA molten balls, or the FIVB international ball

Make sure you get an authentic one. If you want to go a little cheaper, Molten has some regular leather ones, and so does Tachikara.

As for outdoor, you're going to be looking mostly at Wilson's AVP and Spalding's King of the Beach balls

Budget friendly? This one

Interesting. So are 2016 rio olympic balls for example the same size as the slightly larger international balls?

edit: I believe it's this ball, but I'm not sure what "size 5" means or if all "size 5" balls are exactly the same size: https://www.amazon.com/Mikasa-MVA200-2016-Olympic-Yellow/dp/B001F51TYK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485032149&sr=8-1&keywords=mikasa+rio+2016
