“You can't make a great play unless you do it first in practice.”—Chuck Noll
and when I was reading this it struck me that “practice makes a man perfect” and for a good practice in sports we want good equipments and grounds. Equipments are not a big deal because our school is providing it all. Second was the ground, we planed and asked for the permission from school authority and put up our proposals of cleaning and developing the ground. we started with cleaning 1st ground and cleaned two patches of land to make volley-ball courts. using image from trusted site which we used to make measurements. We measured the court but it was not correct. We had a very difficult time during making the courts. First difficulty faced was the straight line. We were not able to make straight line as we were not sure of any specific technique to do that. All were helping each other in solving it. All of a sudden we got an idea of using the rope as a compose.We tried the simple construction method which was taught to us in junior classes. With the help of rope we did a fabulous job and completed the task. The shape of the court was a rectangular. Where, length was 18 m and breadth was 9m. It was then divided into 2 halves. We sketch the center line and then leaving 3 m on each side drew another lines.
Next task was to put the poles in right position. we measured the length of the pole and and the required length and accordingly dug the hole. The poles are adjustable so we set it for men and which was in other way was for women. It was 2.43 m which was really high and then the final touch of tying the net. I felt very good after doing it because it was the thing which will be useful to many people. We tied net and marked the court with white lime.
The most amazing feeling was when I saw children of junior classes playing and enjoying the volley-ball game.

Please do mention what specific difficulties you faced in the ground preparation and the techniques that you used and failed to implement. Otherwise, it sounds very airy-fairy.
Good to know that you succeeded at last using recollection of technique taught at early school.
also, please put in the statistics, markings and other measurements in a jpeg file and upload it.
Cheers!
