WELCOME!
Welcome to the LA Beach Volleyball (LABV) Meetup - we play every Saturday (year-round). Our secret (Marina Del Rey-ish) location has free parking (assuming you arrive early), many nets, and multiple bathrooms close by. Unlike other groups- we do not discriminate! All skill levels are welcome! We are often described as a "HUGE beach party" - and I think that's pretty accurate!
LABV is NOW FREE! However, we do ask for an annual donation of whatever $$ you can afford! Donations cover our equipment (balls cost $90ea now!) as well as lots of other things, including our $360+ meetup fees.
Please note that all members are required to RSVP each and every week (before the RSVP list reaches its 60-plus person capacity) in order to play that week.
Fine Print: You must become a LABV member to find out where we play, and you must RSVP on our meetup site every single week you wish to play. Also, you must have a photo of yourself (not your pet or whatever) in your profile to become a member. I try to answer all the usual questions in the "Pages" link or in here, so I'm sorry but I just can't respond to emails asking questions already covered.
Our group has 2 different levels of play on Saturdays -
------- Courts open to ALL SKILL LEVELS (that plays 2's and 4's)
------- Courts open to HIGH-INTERMEDIATE PLAYERS (that play doubles)
Our guidelines:
1. All skill levels are welcome! We still try to maintain a fairly high level of play, but we also will not discriminate against you if you are a beginner. We are primarily a SOCIAL group, not a competitive group.
2. We are liberal on the rules of our games in fours. Please understand that certain CBVA violations are going to be allowed when playing fours. Doubles play is stricter on rules.
3. We would love for members to occasionally bring snacks! There is usually a communal blanket for food sharing.
4. NO stalking or other soap-opera drama! Let's remember this is a friendly group environment, not a single's bar. Complaints against members causing drama will result in removal from the group.
5. It is fine for you to come without a partner. We have sign-up lists to help with that, but typically newbies can just ask around to join a team.
6. Good sportsmanship only!
