2019 Haili Volleyball Tournament

Aloha everyone,

Haili is right around the corner and we are getting excited for our 62nd Annual Tournament.  Because the DOE and University Spring Breaks coincide with each other this year we have made a few changes in the format, all for the better. Because of this there will be more games anticipated, therefore the days will be longer and teams may have to start play earlier than usual so please make the necessary arrangements to accommodate these changes.  Please read through the letter as well the application carefully.  

The Juniors will need to be ready to play from 8:30 a.m. on Monday, March 18thto Wednesday, March 20th.  The Men and Women’s B and A divisions need to be ready to play by 12:00 noon on Wednesday, March 20th. Everyone else will need to ready to play at 8:00 on Thursday, March 21st.  I will try to get the schedule out as soon as I can so you may make your reservations accordingly.  

We hope that you will be just as excited as we are and will come and join us in the 62nd Annual Haili Volleyball Tournament.  The dates are Mar. 18-23, 2019.  Deadline to apply is Feb. 9th.  Because I may have to limit the entries please get your application in as soon as possible.  It is a first-come, first-serve basis.  Should you have any questions feel free to contact me.  We look forward to seeing you.

Mahalo,

Haili Volleyball Tournament Committee
