The 2020 edition marks the fifth championship for the CCSA in the sport of Beach Volleyball. The 2020 Championship will take place on April 17-19.
CCSA Commissioner Jerome Rodgers expressed his excitement about the event moving to a new venue. “Extremely happy to work with Colleen Craig of Rally Volleyball and the staff at John Hunt Sand Volleyball Complex as we start to plan for our first exciting weekend of Beach Volleyball in April at this amazing facility,” Rodgers said. “This new beach volleyball complex will provide our student-athletes, coaches, administrators and fans with a great championship experience. We want to thank Tommy Battle, the Mayor of Huntsville, and his leadership team for their on-going collaboration as we embark on this new partnership.”
“This championship tournament fulfills a community vision to offer new sporting opportunities through a state-of-the-art Sand Volleyball Complex,” said Mayor Battle. “We will be delighted to welcome the CCSA collegiate teams to Huntsville, and we plan to show the players what a great city we have in the hopes some of these athletes might return here to live and work one day.”
