Add Volleyball as an activity type

Volleyball is currently not available as an activity type in Intervals.icu.
I play Volleyball regularly (2–3 times per week) and would really appreciate having Volleyball added as a predefined activity type.

A dedicated Volleyball activity type would improve training load, fitness, and fatigue analysis, as its intensity profile differs from generic “Workout” or “Strength” sessions. Mapping Volleyball to other activity types is currently only a workaround and limits clean long-term analysis.

Same thing for me. My watch automatically upload all my workout to intervals.icu and the volleyball workouts are automatically assign the category “run”. I currently need to change them manually to “other”. Having a dedicated volleyball category would help a lot.

+1 to that
I think basketball is not there too so it would be great to add Volleball and Basketball at the same time (don’t want to start a new topic)

+1 for this. I play volleyball twice a week and record it with an Amazfit Balance. In the Zepp app the session is correctly labelled “Volleyball”, but when it syncs to Intervals.icu it always arrives as “Run” (2h, avg HR ~118, no distance or pace). I have to change the type manually every time, and it keeps polluting my run stats and per-sport load.

Two possible fixes:

  1. Add Volleyball as a predefined activity type.
  2. Until then, import unknown or generic sports from Zepp as “Other” / “Workout” instead of defaulting to Run.

Squash and other racket sports from the same watch come through with the correct type, so it seems to be only the unmapped sports that fall back to Run. Thanks for looking into it!
