2022 Scorpions Competitive Duos Group Photos
What age do you have to be to play competitive beach duos and do I need a partner?
It is open to boys and girls duos Born 2005 to 2012. It is for players who have played on one of our Competitive/Select teams during the indoor season. The club does not put partners together. If we know of someone looking for a partner we will let you know.
It is important the partners are compatible in skillset and get along well. Both players have to commit to the program.
Competitive beach duos is harder to play than indoor due to weather (you play in all weather conditions, except lightning/thunder), playing on sand and the 2 on 2 format. Having said that most players love playing beach volleyball.
What is the time and cost commitment required?
Acceptance into the competitive duos program means you must attend two sessions per week. One session in Cambridge at Riverside Park and one at our courts at Emerald Lake. It is a 12 week program.
The cost for each athlete is $295 per player for the training. We know some will miss a week if they are on vacation.
What are the costs of the tournaments and how many do we have to go in?
