Building on last year’s success, the purpose is to offer student beach volleyball players the opportunity to participate in an annual beach volleyball competition that will continue to grow from strength to strength, while providing a fun yet competitive tournament for all to be a part of.
Last year we had entries from all over the country and with the efforts of the Beach Commission and the valuable support of third parties such as Marjon College and, most importantly, your support as participants, there is no doubt that this competition will become established as one of the major events on the annual beach volleyball calendar, as the sport continues to grow and develop in England at an ever increasing pace.
As a small token of appreciation for your support of this event, we are also pleased to announce that students who participate in the Beach Volleyball Student Cup 2007 will be eligible for a discount on their registration fee for the Volleyball England Beach Tour (VEBT) 2007.
