Facility Information

Located in bucolic Sprakers, New York, Mike and Diane's VB World is convenient to absolutely nothing. Luckily for us, that didn't stop Mike and Diane from replacing their perfectly nice back yard with a top-notch outdoor volleyball facility.

M&D's VB World features three awesome sand courts, outdoor lighting, 500 feet of 15-foot-high netting, a pool and a hot tub. A "goat" theme further distances this facility from run-of-the-mill athletic venues. See below for pictures of the lovely accommodations.
