Welcome to the King and Queen of the Beach 2024! That’s right, the King and Queen of the Beach is back.
After over 20 years of history being run by the Academy of Beach Sports, Fireball have taken on the King and Queen of the Beach tournament. We’re excited to bring this amazing weekend of volleyball to the August bank holiday weekend.
Schedule & Description
Saturday is our classic King and Queen of the Beach event. This means you enter as an individual player and get put in a division of your level, consisting of 16 players. Over the course of the day you will play with lots of different partners to end up with an overall winner. It’s fun, social, and a great day of volleyball! Oh, and did we mention we use the old-school side out scoring? So you only score points you win on your serve. Epic. Cost is £20 per player. £10 of each entry goes to the Academy of Beach Sports charitable fund, which helps fund fund children who can’t afford it to play beach volleyball in North Devon. Division 1 (top 16 seeds) is a UKBT 3* event. Division 2 is a UKBT 2* event. Division 3 and below are NOT UKBT. If you wish to play in the top 2 divisions you must have a UKBT registration.
Sunday is the classic pairs day. You enter as a men’s or women’s pair. We have two divisions and you can also enter on the day on the Saturday. There’s stash prizes for winners! Cost = £30 per pair.
Monday is a chilled out mixed pairs tournament. It will start a bit later (10:30) and is Hawaiian shirt themed. There’s a prize for the best dressed! Cost = £25 per pair.
