2025 SAND PROGRAM INFORMATION

GIRLS SAND PROGRAM

We believe that playing in the sand is an essential part of player development. Even if you don't want to play competitive beach doubles, training in the sand will help you achieve your full potential as an indoor player. Beach doubles have also become more popular at the youth and collegiate level. With this in mind, BAVC recently announced our intention to launch a year-round sand program.

To train doubles teams to compete and metal in Northern California, SoCal, and over time in national tournaments. When possible, we will identify tournaments where BAVC teams all compete at the same tournament. Our initial goal is to form 10 doubles teams who want to commit to regular training.
