Estero Beach Volleyball Tournament

June 24, 25 and 26, 2005

 

About the Tournament:

The Mexico International Volleyball Tournament, known everywhere as "Estero Beach", is preparing for its 30th season and is held the last weekend of every June on (or near) the beach next to the Estero Beach Hotel in Ensenada, Mexico, a two hour drive south of San Diego.  The Tournament is the largest beach volleyball tournament anywhere, typically hosting over 2,000 amateur and professional players from around the world.

The tournament has identical men's and women's divisions, and is technically a weighted blind draw sand doubles volleyball tournament ("CBVA" rules).  The blind part means players don't pick their own partners.   The Tournament Committee is responsible for that.   So, you can't enter the tournament as a team, only as an individual.  We regret that requests for teaming up friends, relatives, etc are almost always rejected, so please don't be disappointed if we don't OK your request.  The only exceptions typically are father/son or mother/daughter, but even then, it's not a guarantee and only at the Committee's discretion.   There are more than a few father/son teams that could walk away with the tournament!  Men's and women's courts are intermingled and share the same area of sand.
