Exclusive Event for Beach Volleyball Clubs

Beach Volleyball Clubs of America and JVA partner up to bring this great event to Hermosa Beach, CA. With over 100 clubs and 550 teams in attendance, it is the largest junior beach volleyball championship in the country.

The JVA’s mission to promote the growth of junior volleyball through program and resource development, education and events supports the mission of the BVCA. Our partnership enables JVA and BVCA members to share resources, ideas, and help meet common goals with the indoor and beach community across the country.

Qualification

Teams are selected by their club director. Bids have been awarded with an email on how to register your teams.

Each beach club will select their top team and the beach club director will register their athlete. Parents do not register. If a player graduated High School in the fall and went to college in the spring, she can NOT participate in the BVCA National Championships as a junior player. View Tournament Guidelines HERE.

Below you will find all the additional information you need for the BVCA National Championship.
