I looked at the diagram in the NFHS Website to confirm, and the VB attack line is 10 feet from the division line. That being said, on a standard high school court that is 84 feet long, that 10 foot line on the Volleyball court would be 32 feet from the endline. So you'd need to go another 4 feet toward the endline for one end of the box, and then go another 6 feet, or 14 feet toward the endline, depending on what your state has adopted, for the other end of the box.
Okay, Whistles & Stripes, thanks.
So that brown line, that we approve, must be something else. Perhaps it's a pretend basketball line (or pretend volleyball line) for the courts going perpendicularly to the real floor.
I appreciate the effort.
