Is your youth volleyball team looking for some additional practice this season?

Held at Rocky Top Sports World in Gatlinburg, TN, this one day event will bring together some of the best middle school age and high school age volleyball teams in the Southeast. Read on to learn everything you need to know about this highly anticipated play day in the Smokies.

When and Where

The Spike-O-Rama Volleyball Play Day will take place on Saturday, December 10, 2016 at Rocky Top Sports World. Located at 1870 Sports World Blvd in Gatlinburg, TN, our 80 acre sports campus is just a 10 minute drive from all of the wonderful shops, attractions, and restaurants in the downtown area.

Age Groups

The Gatlinburg Volleyball Play Day will be broken up into two age groups. Young women between the ages of 12 and 15 will play during the first session, which lasts from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Teams with players between the ages of 16 and 18 will compete from 2 p.m. until 8 p.m.

What to Expect

The Spike-O-Rama Volleyball Play Day will use the round-robin style of play. This means that your team will play every other team that attends the event. This is a tremendous opportunity to compete against teams from around the East Tennessee area and beyond who you wouldn’t typically get to face.

The volleyball games will take place at Rocky Top Sports World’s 86,000 square foot indoor complex. Known as “The Rock”, this massive building has 12 beautiful volleyball courts. Our sports campus is also next door to the Gatlinburg Community Center, which provides an additional five volleyball courts.

The Gatlinburg Volleyball Play Day is very reasonably priced. Registration is just $15 per player, and this includes a delicious boxed meal. If a player would prefer to skip the meal, registration is just $10. Coaches can register for $8, which includes a boxed meal. If you would like to sign up for the tournament, or if you have any questions, call Shannon Mincey at 423 – 426-1705.
