Diving on a concrete court -- it can be done, but understand you need special padding. And you need to know how to keep pointy parts of your body, even with padding from hitting the floor just like indoors. Sometimes when you see people laying out who have never been trained inside or any hard surface you just kinda cringe...

When I was in the 7th grade (in the late 1970s) in a Catholic school, my teacher would walk us to a local park for recess. The guys would split up into two teams and play football. The girls (plus two boys we suspected were gay) would get in several small circles of 5 or 6 and bump a volleyball around. I never understood the appeal of volleyball. It seemed so stationary versus the dynamic movements of football. But we were boys and we were too stupid to comprehend the subtle movements of volleyball. We could only understand BIG unambiguous movements that were clearly in front of our eyes. Girls handled ambiguity better. organized competitive volleyball has so much movement it boggles the mind, just messing around having fun, not so much. Unless it gets competetive like with my friend, we played on the sand court at our church old school rules, for hours and hours, we must have lost so many pounds in sweat.

No one wants to break a major rule of engagement.
