BRAAS Brothers,

The most fun volleyball tournament of the year is THIS SUNDAY! Remember, the tournament is not limited to BRAAS. So, invite your friends and family. SPREAD THE WORD!

Important Info:
  • Date: Sunday, March 26; Registration from 9 a.m.-10 a.m.; You must check in even if you have preregistered. 
  • Tournament Style: Draw (similar to moonlight draw); 4-player teams
  • Cost: $30/person if you preregister online; $40/person day of
  • Silent Auction: There will be a silent auction with great items.
Players at all skill levels are welcome. The draw format levels the playing field. Everybody is guaranteed to play at least 4 games. Kids are invited to watch, but play is for adults only. 

Rookies, this is your chance to bring the whole family to find out what BRAAS is all about. You will also discover Mango's, a truly awesome place.
 
You must enter your level of play when registering. The following describes the different skill levels: 
 
Open: ELITE. You know if you're an open player. Chances are, though, that you're not! This is the best of the best. Think Ryan Evans before the baby weight.
 
A: You play at a high level. You've played in an A League with BRAAS or another Mango's league (Court 4 or higher). Think Sumner after several margaritas.
 
BB: You are a solid player but have not yet moved to the higher courts (Courts 5-6). Think Carver because of height limitations. 
 
B: You are a work in progress. Some things you do OK, others not so much (Courts 7-9). Think the majority of BRAAS.
 
C: You lack experience and don't really know the game. You are likely here for the party (Courts 10-11).

Our goal is to have 150 BRAAS  brothers/spouses/family members represented in the tournament. SIGN UP TODAY!
