Tournament Information

This is a "Friendship" Tournament.  As such the format is
different from the normal OVR Tournaments.  

To allow more teams to participate, there will be 5 team pools. 
The plan is for each team to have 4 matches within their pool.  A
match consists of one set to 25 points and another set to 15
points.  There are no playoffs or awards.  It is basically a
scrimmage for the teams.  There will not be any seeding points
awarded.

Because some of your uniforms may not be ready in time for the
tournament, we will be lenient with the uniform rules.  We do
prefer each player have at least a number on their uniform to help
the scorekeepers.

This tournament may be an OVR professional official training
site.  If so, new candidate officials will work as the 1st and 2nd
officials for most matches.  They may also work as scorekeepers,
Libero trackers and line judges.  But teams will need to be ready
to provide the normal support functions if necessary.

Doors open at 7:00 am.  Coaches' meeting is at 7:30 am on court
#1.  Play begins at 8 am.

Entry fee is $50 US per team.  Please write your entry fee check
payable to:  OVR

And mail to:

Al Herbert
4440 Merlin Drive
Uniontown, OH 44685-9641

Checks are not deposited until the weekend of the event.  

Seating is provided.  Do not bring your own folding chair.  Very
little camping space is available.  

Outside food is not allowed into the facility.  OhioNets will be
hosting a concession stand for participants and spectators. 
Personal coolers must be left in your vehicles.

If severe weather is expected, please watch this space for
updates.
