avp.com/event/2025-manhattan-beach-open/Starting this thread because I'm debating on going and still have no clue what the format will be. Maybe it was mentioned somewhere on here about if it will be double or single elimination? Will there be a qualifier? We are just over a month away and seems like they would have more information. They don't even have anything in the Athlete's Corner avp.com/athlete-corner/

Miles Partain posted on IG that they will be playing the Montreal Elite, so I guess that means they are skipping MBO again.
Several women's teams also signed up for Montreal including Cheng/Shaw. Perhaps they will drop and play MBO instead once the World Champs picture becomes clearer.

I debated going to Montreal for that tournament too, but Manhattan Beach was easier to get to and cheaper overall (surprisingly)

I just bought tickets for Chicago and it apparently defaults to 8 as the quantity (?!?!) and they are not willing to refund when I intended to buy two… so be careful on those screens!

With Andy and Miles skipping this for the FIVB Elite, this tournament is WIDE open.
Best chance for Chase & Miles.
I wonder who Theo picks up for this? He currently sits in 6th for points.
Played Huntington and got 5th with Troy.
Are the Crabbs playing together?? they are playing a NORECECA and FIVB Challenge before MBO.
That would open Phil (Last MBO) and Sander.
Troy and Evan?? or does Troy go back to Tim?
Caldwell should be back?? He's signed up with Brewster for the Hamburg Elite at the end of Aug.
Billy Allen?? back to Lotman?
SO much on the men's up in the air.

Theo is an interesting one, I'm curious to see who he picks up. Although he may be rusty, I'm not sure how hard he is training

I could have sworn I saw him with a league team? I know he's a coach for UCLA beach now but that wouldn't stop him from playing MBO if he wanted to.
