Volleyball, Beach – Boys
IBVL BEACH VOLLEYBALL SEASON – 2024
The 2024 IBVL Beach Season kicks off on Saturday, August 31st and concludes at the Southern Pacific IBVL Championships in Hermosa Beach on Saturday, October 5th . For more specific tournament dates and locations, please visit https://www.ibvl.org
Each weekend during the season, three player pairs are chosen to represent the Varsity, JV and Frosh/Soph squads. Each week, coaches will determine player pairs for that weekend’s tournament. This creates a focused, competitive environment that gives every athlete an opportunity to earn playing time.
POST IBVL/BEACH POST SEASON TRAINING PROGRAM
After the beach volleyball season ends, players can continue in the Beach Volleyball Post Season Training program, which will award PE credit to participants. Without the Beach Post Season Training Program, students who need PE credit would then transition to Mira Costa High School’s PE program. Students will need to speak with their counselors to make the change in Aeries. As a reminder, all 9th and 10th graders must enroll in PE or play a sport each semester (4 semesters total), so the Beach Volleyball Post Season Training Program would cover one semester of that requirement.
TRYOUT INFORMATION
The Beach Volleyball Program encourages all boys with organized volleyball experience AND with a genuine interest in beach volleyball to try out.
MCHS Boys Beach Volleyball is a cut sport. To ensure optimal coach to player ratios, the 2024 program will be capped at 60 players TOTAL across the Varsity, Junior Varsity and Frosh/Soph squads.
Tryouts are scheduled for Thursday August 22, 2024 and Friday August 23, 2024 from 2:30pm – 4:30pm. Location for tryouts will be in Manhattan Beach, 2nd Street/The Strand.
