Looking forward to the Barefoot Wine National Championships


On Thursday, August 26, teams from more than 20 sites around the country will converge on Chicago for a weekend of celebrating, sightseeing and volleyball competition ... in Milwaukee.

The Barefoot Wine AVPNext National Championships were originally scheduled for Friday in Chicago prior to the start of the Chicago AVP Tour Stop. However, with the cancellation of the remainder of the AVP Tour, the good folks at Barefoot had to scramble to find a new venue for the tourney itself. Bradford Beach to the rescue!

I've played at Bradford a few times this year. With 24 courts, a classic beach pavillion, tiki hut on the sand, and other amenities, Bradford Beach has become, once again, a great place to play and spend time. Check it out at BradfordBeachJam.com.

I look forward to cheering for the Wasatch Beach teams as they compete in Milwaukee and will report from the scene. In the next post we'll feature the WBV teams. By the way, if you haven't heard, Mike Nelson and his partner, Lucas Black, won the Manhattan Beach Barefoot League and Tourney and will be in the mix, as well.

For more on the AVP's cancellation of the league, check out the two postings on avp.com and stay tuned!
