Here's some information on this weekend's event at Stanford. Copied from an email from Amy Brown:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sand Volleyball is back! We host our first matches in the beautiful new Stanford Sand Volleyball Stadium on Friday at 3pm (the stadium is located behind the field hockey turf/the outfield wall of softball). We will continue the weekend tournament Saturday and Sunday with matches featuring Stanford, USF, Santa Clara, St. Mary’s, UOP, Sac State, Cal, and San Jose State. The tournament will feature a team competition (Friday and Saturday) as well as a pairs competition (Saturday afternoon and Sunday). Matches will take place at the new stadium as well as at the ACSR courts by the Graduate School of Business (where we competed the last few years) and at the Wilbur courts (on Escondido Rd). Our team will compete in the stadium in each of the team matches. For the pairs tournament, we’ll probably end up all over the place!
As far as parking goes, your best bet will be Sunken Diamond or Maples. There is a limited amount of parking right by the courts, but walking access to the courts from there has been closed due to some construction. The stadium does not have bleacher seating, but is similar to where we played last year with grassy hills (though they are not as steep). So bring your own blanket or chair to sit on (there is also seating along the stone walls). Admission is free.
Hope to see you this weekend! Go Card!
