Games will start Tuesday, June 7th. Game times will be at 6:00, 7:00, or 8:00. The league will run every Tuesday and Playoffs will be Tuesday July 26th. Some teams my have double-headers so please make sure you pay attention to the schedule. Schedule will be made ahead of time. If your team is unable to make it, please send a text message or email to Kari Cooley so she can tell the other team of the forfeit.

Divisions

You will determine your division based on the grade you will be entering in the fall. The team must play in the division of the highest grade on the roster. Any alternates throughout the summer cannot be in a grade higher than the one entered. (Ex. Roster of 7th, 8th and 10th grader must play in the 10th grade division. If you would like to play up a division simply sign up for it in the registration form. 

 

Junior High and High School divisions are triples (3 players): 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th

Middle School divisions play quads (4 players): 6th and under

 

We ask that any girls that graduate this year to play in our Adult Leagues on Thursday Nights.

Game Day

On the first day, teams will need to check in at the table on the East side of the beach. All teams will need to provide payment in full and waiver forms. Teams will then be assigned a net to play. 

 

Time slots on the first day will be designated to age groups. If your team is unable to come in the slot assigned, please be sure to email us and we can attempt to make arrangements. Some teams may be contacted to come at a different time due to pre-registration team numbers.

 

• 6th and Under, 7th and 9th grade divisions: 6:00 time slot; Captain's Meeting at 5:30

  • Depending on number of teams and nets available, some will be moved to the 7:00 time slot

• 8th and 10th grade divisions: 7:00 time slot; Captain's Meeting at 6:30

  • Depending on the number of teams and nets available, some teams will be asked to move to the 8:00 slot.

• 11th and 12th grade divisions: 8:00 time slot; Captain's Meeting at 7:30

 

After the first week, check-in is not necessary if you know what net your team is playing on. If you are unsure, you can always check at the table. Please check the schedule the day of play as last minute forfeits and net changes do happen.

 

Teams that play the 6:00 are required to set up lines for the net. Teams that play at 8:00 are required to wind up the lines at the conclusion of play. Teams will play 3 games to 25, win by 2 with rally scoring (Cap at 30). Players should call the score out after each sideout. If teams would like to switch sides due to the elements (sun/wind) at 10s, it needs to be declared at the start of the game. After play of all three games, one representative of each team is required to report wins and loses to the table. Failure to report the results will result in an automatic 0-3. End of season brackets will be determined based on record and division.

 

Parents are not to coach on the beach. Players are here to have fun and learn together. Parents who are coaching will be asked to move.

Weather

As we know, living in Ohio and playing on the lake can make for crazy weather. Game updates will be posted on the Lakeview Beach Volleyball Homepage in the blue box if made prior to 4:00. However, game cancellations can occur while we are setting up. You will receive a text message alert via "Remind" if the league is cancelled. Personal emails and text messages WILL NOT be sent. Sign up for notifications by texting "@16ybeach" to 81010 to receive up-to-date updates on play.
