What does ABVT mean in VOLLEYBALL

The Australian Beach Volleyball Tour (ABVT) is a beach volleyball league designed to provide players with competitive opportunities at the elite level. It consists of series of tournaments held annually throughout Australia. The ABVT aims to promote beach volleyball and support the development of athletes in all aspects of their participation in the sport.

All athletes aged 12 and over can participate in any of the ABVT events, provided they have a valid tournament licence and comply with the other requirements as set out by each event organiser.

Yes, certain restrictions may apply depending on an athlete's age or level of skill. For example, some tournaments may restrict participation for athletes who are not of a certain standard.

You will need appropriate beach volleyball clothing and other gear including swimwear, footwear, sunglasses, hats and sunscreen. You will also require appropriate equipment such as volleyballs and nets.

Further information regarding upcoming ABVT tournaments as well as registration details can be found on the official website for the Australian Beach Volleyball Tour (https://abvtour.com).

Registration usually opens around two months prior to an event. However, it is recommended that players register early to ensure their place in each tournament as spaces are limited due to venue capacity constraints.

Prices may also differ if you are registering as part of a team or group entry so please check with each individual event organiser directly for further information regarding fees and payment methods available.

There are typically four divisions within an ABV tournament – Men’s Open Division, Women’s Open Division, Juniors (Under 18) Division and Recreational Division (4-Player Coed). Depending on the event size, there may also be additional divisions available such as Masters/Veterans Divisions or Specialty Divisions like 2x2 3x3 etc).

Generally speaking yes coaches/instructors are welcome at any event organised by the Australian Beach Volleyball Tour (ABVT), however this may depend on how many coaches a team has registered with them on that particular day so please contact your local host organiser for confirmation prior to arriving at every tournament venue.
