The members of Pristava got together this weekend and played in a Co-ed 4's sand volleyball tournament. Competition this year was fierce, as all teams were head to head at each game. All 6 teams competed in pool play, where most games were split each team earning one win and one loss. Thetournament lasted from 2 pm until dark. Luckily the weather cooperated and only wind was a factor. Thank you to those who fixed up the two Pristava sand courts!
Pristava is looking to host another sand volleyball tournament this year. August 10 will be a doubles tournament. The team make up can be of any gender, but the net heights will be at 8 ft (men's height). For more details e-mail jzakelj@aol.com.
