California Pacific Ocean
Coed 4s beach volleyball tournament
Saturday, May 16
on Ocean Beach, California (SAN DIEGO)

(at Voltaire St / Point Loma Blvd)

play starts 10:00 am
$45 a player ($180 a team)
Join us for the spring edition of our very special get together on the California beach.
The Pacific Ocean waves breaking, surf sprayed breeze and salty air bliss - the magic of the beach.
6-8 courts of fun in the sun barefoot joy action.
Always a groovin', splendid time.
Traditionally filled with 24-32 teams,
the field is a blend of Arizona, Las Vegas and of course the awesome local San Diego area players.
A very cool cocktail of three tribes.
Come play with and versus some new friends and some familiar.
FORMAT
- Coed team 4s
- one female minimum required
Welcoming ALL player levels
3 levels in 3 divisions is our goal
- BB/A level Big Kahuna
- B level Little Kahuna
- C/Rec level Fun Kahuna (with relaxed hands rules)
*NOTE: when registering, we ask your team's level.
IF we get a sufficient number of each of the 3 levels, we can segregate play from the start, at pool play.
Or, we can run one collective pool play group and split into playoff groups from pool play results.
Many options - our goal is to make everyone happy, comfortable & satisfied with competition levels.
FORMAT
5 pool play games + Double elimination bracket playoffs
(single games, not best of 3 sets)
*7 games minimum guaranteed for all players
POOL PLAY
- 5 pool play games for every team
- Single games to 21 (cap 23)
PLAYOFFS
Teams are seeded by their 5 game pool play record
(Wins/Losses first, then point +/- differentials)
- Double elimination bracket play follows
- Single games to 21 (cap 25)
Some Rules
Big and Little Kahuna flights = full clean rules of beach volleyball expected
(lifts/carries, double contact, open fingered spinny-slop, pushes, throws are all FUGLY stuff)
Little Kahuna flight house rule
- Hands Fly Free Hand SETTING:
Hand sets that STAY on your team's net side will not be judged/called for spin/double contact or lift.
This special house rule is ONLY for hand sets clearly being put up for a hitter - it does not mean jungly-ball open season for anything.
Fun Kahuna flight: relaxed rules
The C/Rec flight will permit grubby play (lifts, pushes, throws upward, double contacts, sloppy sets)
- Net contact IS not allowed
- Teams may have up to 6 players on the sand
(1 female needed for a team of 4 or 5, 2 females needed for a team of 6)
Prizes
TBD - decided by how many teams are in each division,
and if we have enough for a third playoff group.
*We typically feature new balls, hoodies, shirts/tanks, Thermoflasks, bags, towels etc for 1st and 2nd, sometimes 3rd too.
