Saturday, August 23, 2025: First Open Volleyball Tournament of the Fall at the Spectacular Etelä-Hervanta School!
You don’t need a team to participate. Multiple skill levels available!
Straight to signing up: Sign up form
Games are played in a rotation table format. The matchups are listed in a table: you play a short match, points are awarded based on the result as 3-0, 2-0, or 2-1. Then the next matchups are played, and so on. You earn points as a team, but since the lineups rotate, each player accumulates their own individual score throughout the tournament.
Upcoming tournaments for the winter season:
September 27 – team-based
November 1 – table format, conclusion of the Spiker/Dinker of the Year contests
December 27 – team-based
February 7 – table format, next year’s season-long competitions begin
March 7 – team-based
April 18 – table format
May 23 – team-based

Wondering which division to choose? Check out general info about our tournaments here.
The goal is always to gather enough players for two skill-level divisions. Some movement between these divisions often takes place mid-tournament. It’s also possible that some initial pools fall between the two main levels.
When signing up, you may indicate your preferred division, but we can’t guarantee it. Placement is based on your preference plus experience, intuition, common sense, and previous tournament performance – and when players are on the borderline between divisions, we also use a rotation principle to keep things fair.
The goal is, naturally, to make sure matches are well-balanced and enjoyable for everyone throughout the long tournament day. After the initial pools, around the halfway point, players are reorganized into finals based on skill level. Everyone moves on – only the final round level is determined by early performance. Lots of matches and a great tournament vibe for everyone, regardless of how you perform!
Tournament Date & Location:
Saturday, August 23, 2025
Etelä-Hervanta School
Approx. 9:30 AM – 5:30 PM
If there are many players, start/end times will be staggered, and some participants may finish later in the evening.
Note: The venue reservation must be finalized over a week before the tournament. If many late registrations come in after that, we may not be able to accommodate everyone. The earlier you sign up, the more certain your spot is!
Match Format:
All matches are planned to be 6 vs 6. If needed, we may create 1–2 pools with 5 vs 5. In case of pools with more than 12 players, everyone gets rest rounds (no substitutes during individual games).
Fees:
In 2025, VAT on sports activities increased, but tournament fees remain unchanged.
With a monthly Höntsy Pass: €20
Standard price: €27
Discounted (students, seniors, unemployed): €22
Registration deadline: Thursday, August 21.
Registration is binding – if you don’t show up, you are still expected to pay.
You may cancel only for a compelling reason. Cancellations due to such reasons are free if done by August 20. After that, a €10 cancellation fee applies.
No-shows without notice (even same morning) will be charged double. This is because the tournament tables are made in advance, and no-shows disrupt everything.
