Disruption where one might play volleyball? About right (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

breach

'disruption' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'where one might play volleyball? about right' is the wordplay.
'where one might play volleyball?' becomes 'beach' (volleyball is usually played on a beach).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'beach' going around 'r' is 'BREACH'.

(Other definitions for breach that I've seen before include "Severance" , "Fissure" , "part of firearm, say" , "The breaking of a law or agreement" , "Opening -- infraction" .)
