Tryout Dates Set
Beach Elite Tryouts
Beach Elite has decided to conduct tryouts tentatively on August 4th, 5th, 11th and 12th. Times for each age group will be determined at a later date.
We realize that this may create more pressure on players if other clubs decide to conduct their tryouts earlier and force players to commit before our tryout dates end, but we felt conducting them after HS started would provide families a better opportunity to enjoy their summer. We hope that each player understands that a club who has the players best interest at heart will allow them to find the right home for themselves.

Check out the article in the Beacon and Hampton Roads.com website: http://hamptonroads.com/2012/01/olympian-dispenses-gold-medal-advice-va-beach
VBVBA would like to thank the 114+ players who participated in the 3 hour clinic ran by 2-Time Olympic Gold Medalist, Kerri Walsh Jennings. Not only was Kerri very personable with each participant, she was extremely energetic and inspired every player to work extremely hard. At the end of all the hard work, players got an opportunity to talk to Kerri, get autographs and parents snap pictures of their daughter with heras well as with her gold medal. It was a great time for players, staff and parents!! Thank you Hampton Roads for showing Kerri such a great welcome to our area and the love of volleyball we all have.
Look for more pictures to be posted in the very near future.
