Tournament Format
2-Star events (formerly called Pro events) will consist of AAA and AA divisions and 1-Star events (formerly called Am events) will consist of A and B divisions
Placement into each division (AAA or AA / A or B) will be based on participation points. Once in a division, teams will be re-ranked based on average finish. Participation points are as follows: • AAA (1st-16th) 16 • AA (17th and lower) 16 • A (1st-16th) 16
Please note that AAA players are not permitted to participate in 1-Star events, no matter who their partner is
Seeding/Ranking
Once in a division, teams will be re-seeded based on the following criteria: • Total ranking points (average finishes) from the last year (2021) and the current year (2022). In the case of a tie, more weight will be placed on the most recent event • Subjective seeding by the Volleyball BC Players Committee. Volleyball BC reserves the right to make final decisions on seeding
