Following a successful string of league and tournament play, volleyball enthusiasts will have yet another reason to celebrate, as Club Elan at the Hyatt Regency Saipan will be hosting the 6th Annual Club Elan Christmas Volleyball Classic, in association with Miller Lite.
This coming Sunday, Dec. 19, the Hyatt beachfront will be transformed into a festival of bumps, sets, and spikes, as the four-person random draw tournament gets underway at 9:30am.
Registration for the event will begin at 9am, and the cost to enter the double elimination tournament is $15 per person. Members of the Northern Marianas Islands Volleyball Association will receive a $5 discount. Pre-registration for the seaside affair is not required.
There will be an assortment of cash and prizes awarded to the top teams, to include brunches, lunches, massages, to name a few. In addition to the participating in the tournament, competitors will get the added perks of full usage of Club Elan Spa and Fitness Centre, 20 percent discount on food and beverages at both Splash and Skipper’s beachside bar, and 30-40 percent discounts on massages for the day.
Club Elan spa/recreation manager, Faheem Ebrahim, said that a portion of the proceeds from the tournament will go towards NMIVA’s efforts to send a team to the South Pacific Mini Games next July.
“Every year we get about 40 to 50 people to come down and enjoy the games. It’s all about having a fun afternoon of volleyball,” said Ebrahim.
