Volleyball net equipment is everything that holds a net tight, square and at the right height — standards, tensioning parts, and the smaller hardware that finishes the job. JoySportStore carries volleyball net equipment from First Team and Gared, with prices in this collection running from $138 to $8,045. That span covers both replacement hardware you add to standards you already own and full facility-level purchases. Product titles list the model number and pack quantity, so you can check the part against your existing system before ordering.

View full detailsVolleyball net equipment covers the parts between the floor and the net tape: the uprights (also called standards or poles), the tensioning mechanism, the net, and the hardware that secures and protects the cable. The listings in this collection come from First Team and Gared, two US manufacturers of court and facility equipment, priced from $138 to $8,045. That range is wide because the category itself is wide. At the low end you are buying a small set of parts — a four-pack of cable covers, a clamp hardware kit — to repair or complete a system you already own. At the high end you are buying at the scale of a gym installation. Knowing which of those two jobs you are doing is the fastest way to narrow this page down.
A volleyball system is the complete assembly rather than a single item: two uprights, the mounting method, a tensioning device to pull the top cable taut, and the net. Systems are usually grouped by how they mount. Floor-sleeve systems drop into brass or steel sleeves set permanently into a gym floor and are covered with a flush plate when not in use; they are the standard for school and club competition courts. Portable systems stand on weighted or wheeled bases and need no floor work, which suits multi-use rooms, rented space and recreation centers. Outdoor and sand systems use deeper ground sleeves or spike anchors and are built for weather exposure.
Nets differ mainly in their top edge and their construction. Competition nets use a steel cable or heavy Kevlar-type cord along the top so the net can be tensioned hard between standards; recreational nets often use rope, which is easier to handle but will not hold the same tension. Net height for regulation play is 7 ft 11 5/8 in for men and 7 ft 4 1/8 in for women, with lower settings for youth divisions — which is why adjustable uprights matter more than the net itself for most buyers.
The two First Team parts on this page are examples of the accessory side of the category, and both are bought by model number rather than by size.
| Item | What it is | What to check first |
|---|---|---|
| First Team FT5011 Volleyball Net Cable Covers | Sold as a set of four covers for the net cable | Quantity needed — one set covers four runs; count your exposed cable sections before ordering |
| First Team FT5300CH Volleyball Blast Clamp Hardware | Clamp hardware sold for the Blast series | That your standards are the matching First Team model; clamp hardware is not universal between manufacturers |
Cable covers sit over the exposed top and bottom cable so players and officials are not brushing against bare steel, and they are a common replacement item because they take contact every match. Clamp hardware is the piece most often lost or stripped when a system is dismantled and stored between seasons. Neither part is interchangeable across brands, so match the manufacturer and series name in the product title against what is stamped on your existing equipment.
Setup follows the same sequence on almost every system. Uprights go in first — dropped into floor sleeves or locked onto their bases — and are checked for plumb before anything is attached. The net is then hooked or laced to the upright at the correct height for the division you are playing, using the height markings or pin settings on the pole. The top cable is tensioned last, pulled through the winch or ratchet on one upright until the net is taut enough that the tape does not sag at center court. Antennas and side bands are fitted at the sideline boundaries, cable covers are slid on, and the whole assembly is re-checked for height at both ends and at the middle, since tensioning can pull an upright out of true. Floor plates should be seated over unused sleeves before play begins.
Buyers on this page tend to fall into three groups. Athletic directors and facility managers with existing in-ground sleeves are usually replacing worn hardware and want an exact model match. Recreation and community programs sharing a floor with other sports lean toward portable setups that store between uses. Home and game-room buyers are generally at the accessory end of the price range. In every case, check the manufacturer and model in the title against your current equipment first — the wrong clamp or cover is the single most common return in this category.
