Beach Volleyball

Beach Volleyball is a great way to improve fundamental skills and movement. It challenges players of all levels to learn different hitting, serving, and defensive strategies.All while having fun in the sun! You may enter with a partner, or we can help pair you up. All players need to have a current OVR membership. 

Beach volleyball is one of the best ways of improving a player's overall volleyball skills. It’s a challenging but fun environment that will improve not only a player's fundamental skills, but also their conditioning, knowledge, and communication skills. The sand forces you to be a more aggressive and balanced player. Sand also creates drag and increases your vertical jump and cardio work. Practices encourage well-rounded development in all areas. Come join us for an exciting summer Beach program!

 

2024 Beach Club league

Beach volleyball is played with only two players per team, so each player gets many more touches than in indoor volleyball. There is also a better player-to-coach ratio and the ability to work on all skills. An added benefit is that OVR doesn’t charge an additional membership fee for current club players, so the cost of playing are lower than indoor. (An additional OVR registration fee does apply to those who are not currently on a club team in our region.) A player from an indoor club other than Eastside is eligible to play beach for Eastside, since beach volleyball is considered a different sport by OVR.

There are a limited number of teams due to court time available for practice.

SIGNUPS

Signups are May 17th 5:30-7:00p at Eastside. We will also have a beach open gym. $5 per person All participants in the beach program must sign a liability waiver. 

Tournaments

2024 Pricing

$225 includes 18 practice sessions with an instructor and an Eastside Beach Volleyball t-shirt. Your fee is due the first week of the season.

Season fees are non-refundable for any reason other than a state government restriction or "lockdown" related to COVID-19 that prevents the season from continuing. All other reasons for players unable to participate such as, but not limited to, losing interest, going on vacations, etc. will not warrant a refund, prorated or otherwise.

Pricing does not include:

  • Tournament Registration & Fees. Players register for their own tournaments based on their personal schedules.
    Reason: Different teams will want to play in different tournaments and be able to schedule around summer vacations, etc. This gives the team the flexibility to play as many tournaments as they want or as their schedule will allow.

  • Coaching at Tournaments
    Reason: While a coach is allowed to attend the tournament as a spectator OVR doesn't allow the coach to coach while a game is being played. Coaches will be at many of the events, but no guarantees as to which ones the coaches will attend. Also, getting a coach to every event is very difficult to manage because many of the tournaments put the teams at different locations based on age.
