Sports on Anthem

[Sun Lover]

Does the sports area on Anthem only have basketball and roller skating or do they also do soccer, volleyball and dodgeball like on the Oasis class ships?

Don't remember seeing volleyball, but yes to the others.

I've seen volleyball on Anthem, both Adult and guests vs crew.

Thanks for the info.  Do you remember if they played soccer or dodgeball and if it was a frequent thing or maybe just once a day?  My sons spent a lot of time on the sports deck on the Oasis class ships playing soccer and dodgeball and I read that the sports area on Anthem is used for roller skating, basketball and bumper cars so I'm wondering if there's much opportunity for other sports.

On our recent cruise, May 23 - June 1, all of the activities were available.   Check the cruise compass for days and times.

We had an absolutely wonderful Christmas cruise on Anthem. I have two very minor nits related to the question of sports on Anthem: 1. my millennial daughter signed up for volleyball as she plays wthl a group of friends at home--certainly not professionally but it is competitive. She lasted less than 10 minutes as the players were a mix of other millennia's and fairly young kids who had no business playing with the millennials. It turned out to not really be much of a volleyball game... 2. as the sports area is multi-purpose, it really was not suitable for my basketball-addicted 14 y.o.; the court was very nice when used for basketball, but on other ships he has been on he was accustomed to a dedicated basketball court
