Introduction: The Right System Saves Time, Money, and Headaches
Let’s be real—coaching is already hard work. You’re juggling players, schedules, budgets, and trying to build a winning team. The last thing you want to deal with is a volleyball net that’s tough to set up or wears out halfway through the season.
That’s why getting the right volleyball system matters more than you think.
This blog breaks down the top Gared volleyball systems—both indoor and outdoor—so you can find the best fit for your gym, team, or club facility. Whether you’re shopping for your school district or outfitting multiple courts, this guide will help you choose smarter and avoid costly mistakes.

What Coaches Ask Us All the Time
Q: How do I know what post size I need?
Most indoor systems come in 3" or 3.5". The thicker ones provide more stability—great for competitive play.
Q: Do I need ground sleeves?
Yes, if you want the system to be secure and safe. Most of these come with ground sleeves or offer them as an add-on.
Q: Can I use indoor systems outdoors?
Not recommended. Outdoor systems are made to handle weather and have deeper in-ground mounts.
Q: How long does setup take?
Once installed, Gared systems are fast to adjust—usually a few minutes to change height or tension.
