Club Getaway w/ ALB - Volleyball Vacations.com
Club Getaway <http://www.clubgeta
Vacation <http://www.Volleyba
pickup play and general partying.
Club Getaway is a "summer camp for adults" in Kent, CT which is
about two hours from Rockland. I've been going there for 7 years - even met
my wife there. I went almost every weekend and eventually joined the staff
there.
I've been helping Albert for years with these events because I admire the
dedication he has to making sure everyone has a good time and gets some good
personal instruction with their game. Al has played (and won) at the
highest levels of Pro Beach volleyball and Collegiate Division I (with UCLA
and Hawaii). I've known the guy for 11 years and I'm still amazed at the
depth at which he and other pros understand the game. You can learn more
from 5 minutes of instruction with this guy than you'll probably learn in 5
years playing on your own. Al also is one of the very best hand-setters
on the tour and he's helped a lot of people who thought they could never
handset into setters.
You'll also get a chance to play with/against Al. (Al's game is so good
that he can make ANYONE he plays with look like a star hitting those utterly
delicious handsets of his!)
Here's the rub: The weekend is like $439 and with the absurdly large CT
state "room tax" it comes to about $480. Club Getaway sells out almost
every weekend (it's that popular) and thus just isn't very prone to
discounting but.
While it isn't much... I can get anyone who's never been there before a $25
discount. Plus, people who sign up for the volleyball event will get a
FREE book of bar tickets to buy drinks (a $20 value) and a gift bag full of
AVP gear and signed surprises.

Coed Volleyball Tournament in Canada
Enter as a girl-guy team.
You want to know the level of play? It is varied and open to all levels. Top teams can battle for the cash while all teams just compete to see how far up the ladder they can advance.
The format of the tournament is called the LADDER FORMAT. That means there is no round-robin or playoffs. Each team gets to play 12 single games.
Unlike most tournaments, there is no sitting at all. Each team plays every game, all day.
Prizes? The first 4 rounds are for seeding, after that .... prizes are awarded PER GAME.
That's right! Teams on the top courts get cash prizes after every game won.
The tournament is Saturday, July 26th, 2008.
The location is Brampton, Ontario, Canada. The city of Brampton is a 2 hour drive northwest of Buffalo.
The cost is $50/team.

New Mikasa Indoor Volleyball - Beijing 2008
The volleyball of the future and the 2008 Beijing Olympics. With advanced aerodynamic engineering, the new MIKASA MVA200 offers better stability and ball control than any other indoor ball. This volleyball brings a brand new look and feel to the game and will see action for the first time as the world’s best indoor volleyball athletes compete for the Gold this summer (2008). The world's best, just got better.
Tests conducted by Mikasa Corporation in close cooperation with leading Volleyball National Teams throughout the world, resulted in the following key features of the new MVA balls:
- Balls fly more stable due dimple surface and reduced panels
- Increased grip due to new dimple technology cover material
- Increased visibility of the ball due to new panel-shape/design
- Reduced rebound of the new ball = increased controllability
- Reduced impact-power = increased softness of the new ball
