From the players handbook online for 2017 :
5.2.2. Competing Tours Players are prohibited from competing in any beach volleyball event other than AVP Events unless given written permission by the AVP. All players must notify the AVP in writing if they wish to participate in a non-AVP or non-AVP Sanctioned Event. If a player participates in such Event without approval as set forth herein, a player shall be subject to fines up to $5,000, suspension and/or expulsion.
Fines are a new twist...

On one hand, makes sense: no pro league wants its players to go play somewhere else during a season. On the other hand, if we want to try and be Yoda and read into the Force: this may be a sigh that the AVP is really, really worried about the future.

Yes, but I hope it seriously isn't that stupid to prevent players from playing FIVB. If that's the case it will deserve it when it goes under.

I've been told that this rule has been there for a few years, i'm guessing this was more for the NVL .

"Non-AVP or non-AVP Sanctioned Event" Assume the FIVB are AVP-Sanctioned events

Kerri is accustomed to being able to command and make it so, she is suddenly discovering a world of adults where her writ does not run. This situation is confirming a lot of her suspicions about the way the world works.

The AVP professional players can't go and play for a competitor professional league? FIVB events are definitely AVP sanctioned. NVL events are definitely NOT AVP sanctioned. Small little local fun events just need written permission? Makes sense. Nothing to see hear...

FIVB is more than likely not considered a "Competing" tour that the clause is discussing.

So 3 "professional" tours, and 0 successful tours where players can actually make a living outside the top 4.
