The most renowned beach volleyball talent including Kerri Walsh, April Ross, Jen Kessy, Sean Rosenthal, Phil Dalhausser and local hometown hero Ryan Doherty of Toms River will go head-to-head at the first three stops on the AVP tour to earn one of eight coveted spots in Atlantic City as well as a piece of the $100,000 prize purse.

Format will include
• Top five teams per gender on the AVP tour will automatically qualify
• Two wildcards
• One team will advance from the qualifier allowing locals and players from around the country to battle it out on AC’s new beach volleyball courts at a chance to play with the top pros on tour and world class athletes

The event features brand new beach volleyball courts just off the famous Boardwalk in Atlantic City, where fans, players and visitors of Atlantic City can expect a full weekend of intense competition and family-filled fun. Qualifiers will kick off the weekend with the main draw on Friday, followed by finals on Saturday. The world-class stadium will be erected in the heart of Atlantic City between the Revel Casino and the Showboat Hotel and Casino.
