Registration Changes/Cancellations
Can you change my partner for me?
No. Log in to your AVP account and scroll down to your current events. You can edit or delete an entry here.
This must be done by 3pm the Friday before the event.
I registered, but now I can’t play. What should I do?
Email info@greatamericanvolleyball prior to 8am the day of the tournament.
If you do not notify on time and by email, you will be charged the walk on fee at your next tournament.
Texting a friend/staff member, sending a Facebook message and calling the GAV phone are NOT acceptable ways to notify us that you are not coming and will still result in you being charged the walk on fee at your next tournament.
It might rain. Will we still play? When will you cancel the event? Can you give me some inside information on what you might decide to do? What if I don’t want to play in this weather?
Weather is part of the game. #youwontmelt
You can assume the plan is to hold the event until you see otherwise.
The weather forecast changes often, so we will not post a cancellation until 2 hours prior to the start of an event.
We will email the current entries, along with post on Facebook and Instagram (@greatamericanvolleyball), if we decide to cancel.
If the event starts in less than 2 hours and you have not seen a weather related update, you can assume the tournament is on.
We will not respond to phone calls, texts, emails or Facebook messages about weather.
If you choose not to play, the above player cancellation policies are in effect: you must email info@greatamericanvolleyball.com by 8am if you do not plan to play to avoid paying the walk on fee at the next event.
If we do cancel prior to the start of an event, all prepaid entry fees will be refunded.
If we are forced by the beach patrol to cancel an event after play has already started, entry fees will be forfeited.
Tournament Day
Do I have to pay to get on the beach? What about parking?
There is a fee for beach access at most of our tournament locations and it is NOT included in your tournament entry fee.
Depending on how far you’re willing to walk, you can park for free at most locations. Paid parking is available closer to the tournaments.
What time is check in? What if I’m late? Can I still play?
Saturday: 8:00-8:30am.
Sunday: 8:30-9:00am.
If we have space in the event, there is a $10/team late fee for anyone who is not checked in and paid for by the time check in closes.
We will not rearrange seeding for you to have a later start time, so you may need to forfeit games if you are late.
