Here at 850 Elite Volleyball Academy, we believe in developing a complete athlete. Not only does our beach academy improve all volleyball skills but also gives your athlete a glimpse into the exciting sport that is beach volleyball! We cater our program to include all skill levels, with a developmental program for beginner beach players and then an advanced program for our more seasoned athletes who plan to compete at a higher level. This is our second year of running our summer beach academy and already we are blessed to have seen such drastic improvement from the girls who have returned to the academy two years in a row! Join us next summer and have your athlete experience the fun and friends that beach volleyball brings to their lives!

Beach Volleyball Tournament Registration

All sanctioned beach volleyball tournament signups can be found on Volleyball Life. Your partner and you are responsible for signing up together as a team. Most tournament signups require either a USAV number or an AVP number, which will be used to track your individual points, rankings, player ratings, and bids if earned. If the tournament is a Gulf Coast Regional Event then a USAV number will be required at signup: if you as an athlete played club volleyball the past season then you do not need to purchase a new membership, you will use your USAV number from the past club season. If you had not played club volleyball during the past season then you can register for a USAV number on USA Volleyball's website: you should select a Junior Outdoor Beach Membership, which will be good for a whole beach season. If the tournament is not specifically a USAV event, then most likely it will require at least an AVP Silver Level Membership. The registration process will notify you of which membership type is required and ask for your specific player number and that of your partners during signup.
