One other thing I didn'y mention. You will want to either shoot RAW or
set a custom white balance. Gym lighting conditions are horrible. And
some cyms combine skylights... which go dark at night (!!) and chance
the light quality mid match.

I agree. Also realize that as the teams switch sides in a match the
positions flip as well; setters/right sides for outsides will be on
your side. So you will get players swapping from across court to next
to you as they swap sides of the court. You can plan your subjects
accordingly.
