Saturday, 2 August 2014, "The First Frenzy" blind draw with skill divisions.

(A more complete description of tournament formats can be found here.)

Arrive at 11:30am or so to allow us to get a head count (call ahead if need be); play will begin at noon assuming you ALL get there no later than 11:50am so we can get an accurate count! $5 suggested donation. At the conclusion of the tournament nets will be open for free play, all skill levels welcome.

Note: Mid-City Youth Volleyball (MCYV) League is hosting a tournament from 9:30 to 11:30. Please leave all adult beveridges in your car until after 11:30. Thank You.

Location: MCVG plays on the grassy banks at the foot of Bayou St John, across the street from the Mid-City post office, Bayou Bicycles, Fetch Mid-City and Armstrong Electric Supply, in sight of the American Can Company and within easy walking distance of Parkway Bakery and Tavern. That would be on Jefferson Davis Parkway at the intersection of Toulouse, for those of you that need to use GPS to find us.

Tuesday Eve Volleyball:

Every Tuesday evening, as long as we have daylight, we play at our usual location along Bayou St John 5:00pmish, and we'll play 'til dark, then we will retire to a local establishment for libations. We are asking for a $5.00 donation from all players. We are running our Speed Format Doubles and Quads Tournaments, and there will be a net for pick-up play. This is a great way to play at a level comforatble to you, meet the other players, and have fun. We will try to start the tournaments by 6pm. Beginners and Novices can ask Thomas Gorman and Peter Hickman about drills prior to play (about 15-30 minutes), we are happy to oblige. See you Tuesdays.

Inclement Weather? No such thing. Use your own judgement to play or not, but very rarely has Tuesday night been called off due to weather. Chances are a few of us will be out there.

The Mid-City Volleyball Group (MCVG) is a collection of people from across the city who are passionate about playing and promoting outdoor volleyball.  We regularly set up portable courts along Bayou St John across from the Mid-City post office for clinics, tournaments and pick-up games.  We are equal-opportunity fun-seekers who wish to share our love of the game, so we invite players of all skill levels to join us.  Our ultimate goal is to build and operate a modest sand volleyball venue in Mid-City that will offer beginning and advanced level clinics, tournaments and league play.

MCVG currently offers the following activities:

• Saturday noon “speed” tournament for adults or advanced juniors; $5.00/player (See above for start time). 
• Saturday afternoon pick-up volleyball for all skill levels following the weekly "speed" tournament; free.
• Tuesday night volleyball.

Mid-City Youth Volleyball, MCVG's sister organization, offers the following activities:
