Haymarket Farmers' MarketCourts of Courage Sand Volleyball Tournament
Courts of Courage brings teams together for a sand volleyball tournament that starts with check in, group photos, and a rules meeting, then moves into pool play and bracketed competition. There is a short pause after pool play to seed divisions and hold a raffle, but there is no designated lunch break, so stagger meals to help the kitchen serve everyone in a timely way. Players may bring bottled water or sports drinks, but no coolers, outside food, or alcohol. Restrooms are available outdoors, and if going inside, shirts and shoes are required. Play continues in rain with pauses for lightning. Canopies and camping chairs are welcome. Teams may include any mix of men and women as long as men do not outnumber women. A second male blocker may come forward when there is only one other man in the front row. If a roster changes due to heat or injury, notify a tournament director. Pool play brackets and courts are announced after all teams have checked in and waivers are complete. Each pool match is a single game to 25 with no win by two, and exact scores must be reported. Let serves and open serving are allowed, but a serve may not be blocked or attacked. Keep ball handling recreational, minimize prolonged contacts or carries, and call your own net violations for safety. Balls that touch the line are in, and if there is disagreement, replay the point. If wind is a factor, agree on any side switches before starting. There are no scheduled breaks during pool play, games run back to back, and transitions should be brief. Teams from all levels are mixed in pool play, and sandbagging is not permitted. In tournament play, teams are placed into divisions based on the number of entries. Matches are best of three, with the first two sets to 21 and a deciding set to 15 if needed, win by two. The deciding set has a 15 point cap except in the gold division where there are no caps. All divisions are double elimination. In the losers bracket, matches are one set to 25 with a 25 point cap. For heat safety, a brief break may be requested after back to back or long matches, otherwise be ready to play as soon as your court is available. Cash prizes depend on the total number of registered teams, and proceeds support veterans and first responders.
