Volleyball tournament for ages 1-75
$15,000 Bradford Beach Volleyball Series
The BBV Series is a series of three volleyball tournaments and a Championship tournament, sanctioned by the NVL RIZE, held at Bradford Beach with $2,500 in the Open division and prizes in the lower amateur divisions for each tournament and a grand prize purse of $7,500 awarded to the top finishers in the Open divisions for the Championship.
In addition to prize money and prizes, competing players earn BBV Points that are used for seeding and ranking purposes in future BBV tournaments, as well as NVL RIZE points which are used for seeding and qualification for other RIZE events as well as pro qualifiers/events on the NVL pro tour. Registration for each tournament is open to anyone, including minors as long as they have a parent or guardian in attendance to sign off on the athletic participation waiver. Any athletes interested in playing collegiate volleyball should accept prize money or prizes at their own risk and understanding of the NCAA Amateurism bylaws.
The only registration stipulation is that in order to compete in the Championship in the Open Divisions, a player must have competed in at least two of the previous three tournaments to qualify, regardless of finish.
