A college-based beach volley tournament that brings together Philippines’ most outstanding beach volley players, the seventh Nestea Beach Volley University Championships promises to be the biggest by far in the history of the event. A total of half a million pesos in prizes awaits the winners in the men’s and women’s divisions, with the champion teams in both categories each getting P100,000 and a trophy. Their schools will each receive P50,000 worth of sports equipment and a trophy.
The tournament is open to all college students enrolled for the 2002-2003 school year, and they must be official representatives of their schools. Each school may only field one team each for the men’s and women’s divisions. All applications are screened by the event organizer, and qualified teams are selected on a first-come, first-served basis given the number of slots expected to total 96 nationwide.
