We've been organizing two or three Smash 'n Dig Volleyball tournaments every year since 2004.  Currently we have three types of tournaments:

1. Our Classic Intermediate-Competitive Level Tournaments

Our popular co-ed intermediate-competitive level tournament has attracted local teams (Kitchener-Waterloo) as well as teams from as far as London, Guelph, Hamilton, Niagara, Toronto, Kingston and even Ottawa.  Specifics  typically include:

What is meant by "Intermediate-Competitive Level"?  Many players will have played high school ball, played in a weekly league or frequently enter weekend tournaments.  Teams will know how to run a basic system (6-2 or 5-1), and all should be prepared for spiking and spirited yet fun play.  You will not see varsity level teams at the tournament, but there are often some varsity level players in the tournament.

2. Our New Rec-Intermediate Level Tournaments

This new tournament will fill a growing need for a more recreational level tournament.  Since the intermediate level tournament is becoming increasingly competitive, we decided to add a new level that will allow teams to play at a more comfortable level.  Full OVA volleyball rules are still in effect ( including spiking etc.).  Specifics  typically include:

What is meant by "Rec-Intermediate Level"?  Some players will have played high school ball, played in a weekly league or have entered weekend tournaments.  Some teams will run a volleyball 'system' (6-2 or 5-1), but others will be more spontaneous in their organization.  The tournament is meant for people and teams who like to play volleyball, but may not have ascended to the skill level of our classic intermediate tournament.  You should be prepared for spiking,  and spirited  play, but the idea is that no-one will take winning too seriously.

3. Pairs-Sixes Tournaments

In this style tournament you enter as a pair, but play six on six.  You will play with and against different people every game.  Your wins and loses including your plus-minus ratio will be recorded as you compete against other pairs to make it to the finals.  Specifications include:
