The net proceeds of the tourney will be donated to the CSUN Women's Sand Volleyball Program!

Last year's event raised funds (>$8,000) for Eric Fonoimoana's Dig 4 Kids program.

Even if you can't play, please consider donating directly to CSUN's program - help grow the sport in a direct and tangible way.

Here's the direct donation link: givenow.csun.edu/default.aspx?page=GIVEUserGift&DesignationID=68 (please type "Women's Sand VB in honor of Ramon Calderon" in the Special Instructions box.)

Thank you!

Here's a story from Malibu Surfside News on the event:

In addition to Kevin Lynch, Marcin Jagoda and Chad Kingi, the event drew quality players Austin Kingi (the entire Kingi family played as a tribute to Ramon Calderon), Andrew Sato, Katie Sato, Monique Oliver, Ryan Limb, Hannah Clancy, Mark Schuermann, Matt Stork, Brian Waite and many more. CSUN Head Coach Jeff Stork joined the fun along with several from his squad (Brooke Dawson, Mariah COunts, Casey Hinger).

The event drew more than 160 players and another 200 spectators to promote the sport and to support the CSUN Sand Program. Among the spectators were Sinjin Smith, George Roumain and Bobby Clarke.

This truly grass roots effort raised more than $10,000 this year.
