The net height for men’s volleyball is regulated by the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB) and varies depending on the level of competition. For international competitions, the net height is 7 feet 11 11/16 inches (2.43 meters), while for collegiate and high school competitions in the United States, it is slightly lower at 7 feet 9 inches (2.36 meters). This difference is due to the differing regulations and standards set by various volleyball governing bodies.
