Lovely twirling dance competition, on the beach perhaps (10)

I believe the answer is:

volleyball

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'competition on the beach perhaps' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'lovely twirling dance' is the wordplay.
'twirling' indicates an anagram.
'dance' becomes 'ball' (ball is a kind of dance).
'lovely' is an anagram of 'volley'.
'volley'+'ball'='VOLLEYBALL'
