Recording Sports Videos in an Indoor School Gym

My son just entered high school this school year (2023-2024). He has been super happy to be on the Junior Varsity volleyball team. And as a proud photographic father, of course, I want to be at all his games, shooting photos and videos.

It's important to capture the games for later analysis, talk topic, and entertainment. It's a great way to get my kids to talk about their experiences. And who doesn't want to watch some replays of questionable events. Although referees aren't allowed to watch replays during the game, it's always fun to see if the referees made the right call afterward.

In this article, I will document everything I learned while making video memories of these games.

Motion Camera

Bring whatever motion camera you have on hand. Even a SmartPhone is better than nothing. If you have several, you may want to bring one to capture the entire game and another one to shoot random close-up clips. If you don't know what to bring, the following is my recommendation.
