2008 Competitive Men’s Volleyball Tournament
16 teams, over 100 players, one set, one spike and one victory…
<REGISTER HERE>
Welcome to the fourth annual North Atlanta Church of Christ Volleyball Classic! Here, you’ll be inspired to reach for new heights as your team experiences the exhilaration of competing against the best in Atlanta. This year, we’ve decided to make this a men’s tournament, not coed. We’ve also made some improvements so competition during the tournament is more equal and aligned. Space is limited with only 16 teams competing, and last year we had to turn teams away, so make sure you sign up quick and secure your team’s spot in this tournament.
Below you will find answers to most of your tournament questions and if there is something you’re not sure about, feel free to contact us.
We look forward to seeing you at the tournament!

Pool Play
In the pool play round, each team will play two games against the other three teams in their pool to 25 points using rally scoring. After registration, Team Captain will receive registration confirmation and will be notified by email of what pool your team was placed in, and what time to show up, either Friday night or Saturday morning. You may get to the gym early and warm up. Team Captains must show up an hour before their scheduled game play to go over any tournament changes, check in their teams, and meet with their Concierge. There will be a combined warm-up time of 5 minutes before each game/match. If a team is more than 15 minutes late or doesn’t have more than 4 players checked in, then that team must forfeit. Each team must submit a player line-up to the scorekeeper before each game/match.
