AAU/SPVC Beach Volleyball Tournament Schedule

The AAU Point System

Points are awarded for all participating 12U, 14U, 15U, 16U, and 18U AAU juniors tournaments. The amount of points awarded at each event will be determined by combining our "Base Point Scale" with any approved multipliers for the event. Every event will be subject to the "Team Participation Multiplier" detailed on the website

Points are awarded to 1st through 9th place for each event. All players who finish outside of 9th place will receive 5 points for participating in the event. Points are cumulative and rankings are calculated by the sum of all points earned within the previous 365 days.

 

POOLS ARE NOW SEEDED BASED ON THE POINT SYSTEM FROM https://www.spv.volleyballlife.com

POOLS ARE SEEDED 24 HOURS PRIOR TO THE TOURNAMENT. PLEASE REGISTER BEFORE THE DEADLINE TO ENSURE YOU RECEIVE THE CORRECT SEED. 

*Please note that points are only based on AAU tournament participation and wins, we do not take into consideration any other organizations points such as: USAV, CBVA, ect.

New Policy effective April 24, 2015, no credits will be issued for any missed tournaments. No transfers are allowed from one tournament to another. A request for a refund, in the form of a check or credited back to the credit card, will be issued one week after the event has passed with a $10 processing fee, if the team notifies the tournament director prior to noon, the day before the event. This will still allow for an alternative entry to take place.

No refunds will be processed if the notification takes place after noon prior to the start of the event or if the registration closes earlier, then that becomes the determination date. (National events have earlier close dates/times). The tournament director has the authority to adjust format, combine age groups or cancel a tournament, if necessary. Teams will receive a full refund or a credit towards another event, if requested due to cancellation.
