What is SABVS?
Unlike indoor Volleyball competitions which are played weekly, the SABVS is played on one full day every 1-2 weekends throughout the summer over 11 Rounds followed by a Final Championship. SABVS enables you to pick and choose which dates and competitions you would like to nominate in. You do not have to commit to a full season.
There are two options to play in the SA Beach Volleyball Series.
Elite / Challenger and Futures offer different divisions or age groups:
Rounds with prefix ''+'' offer $600 price pool per gender !
SABVS Final Championship is upgraded to 4 STAR with $1200 price pool per gender !
Elite & Challenger | Futures Pairs & Threes |
Elite 3 star | Pairs Division 1 = Advanced Under 18, pairs |
Challenger 2 star = Competetive | Pairs Division 2 = Intermediate Under 18, pairs |
Challenger 1 star = Intermediate | Threes = Beginners Under 15, 3aside |
Challenger 0 star / Local = Beginners |
See below on how the SABVS format works. Players can participate in both ''Futures'', and ''Challenger'' events.
Your combined individual ranking points will determine which grade you will be playing in (Elite - Challenger).
The draws can vary and will depend on the total number of nominations.
