A self-tensioning volleyball net comprises an elongated net which has elastic stretch cord, with a first effective end and a second effective end attached by the first effective end to the net. The second effective end of the elastic stretch cord receives a hook which is adapted to be secured to an external net support. One embodiment has an elastic stretch cord with a first end and a second end fixedly attached to each other, so that a loop with a first effective end and a second effective end, as previously described, is formed. A second embodiment has an elastic stretch cord with a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the elastic stretch cord is attached to the elastic stretch cord at a point distant from the second end of the elastic stretch cord to form a first effective end, and the second end of the elastic stretch cord is attached to the elastic stretch cord at a point distant from the first end to form a third effective end, and the second effective end is defined by the point where a hook is attached to the elastic stretch cord. The second embodiment further has a drawstring extending along an elongated edge of the net, with the drawstring fixedly attached to a pair of elastic stretch cords at the third effective end.
