Side Out is a 1990 film about a beach volleyball competition, featuring C. Thomas Howell, Peter Horton and Courtney Thorne-Smith.
The term “side-out” refers to an obsolete rule in volleyball under which the winning point could only be scored by the serving team. A side-out is now defined as when the receiving team earns the right to serve whether they get a point when they do so or not. Side-out can also refer to a type of scoring in a game of volleyball where only the serving team can score points. The term is used incorrectly in the final scene of the film Side Out (and in the title itself) because in 1990 modern rules had been in effect for over 40 years.[dubious ]
[edit] Plot
Monroe Clark moves to southern California to begin a law career. He encounters a former professional volleyball player, Zack Barnes.
It isn't long before Monroe gets distracted by the beach, the women there and the game played on the sand, as he and Zack team up to become the new stars of the beach volleyball circuit and contenders to upset the favorites at a major tournament.
