Yes! All our volleyball leagues use LeagueApps to run the season. Every player and team captain is required to download and use LeagueApps. This is how you will get your schedule, game times, coordinate game reschedules, and important league announcements.

Captains will also use the app to report scores and communicate with teammates. Team captains can message other teams and stay in touch with league staff through the app.

All team schedules are managed through LeagueApps, which is the main hub for all Goat Sand Volleyball leagues. Once registration closes and schedules are finalized, captains will receive a welcome email letting them know the schedule is live in the League Apps Play app.

Players can view game times, opponents, locations, and any updates directly in the app at any time. Schedules will also be available online on our website, but all players are required to use League Apps as their primary source for schedules, updates, and league communication.

League Apps ensures everyone stays informed in real time throughout the season.

Weekday Games (Monday–Friday):
Games start no earlier than 6:00 PM, with the last game scheduled as close to 9:00 PM as possible. Exact times depend on the number of teams in the league.

Sunday Games:
Games start in the afternoon around 3:00 PM, with the last game as close to 9:00 PM as possible. Exact times depend on the number of teams in the league.

Teams can have 4–8 players on their roster.

Matches can be played 4v4, 5v5, or 6v6, depending on how many players are present that night. Before each match, both teams should quickly confirm which format they’ll be playing so everything is fair and runs smoothly.

If a team has extra players, rotations are encouraged so everyone gets time on the court.

League games still happen.

If a team has fewer players, both teams should agree on a matching format (4v4, 5v5, or 6v6) before the match begins. The team with extra players can rotate players in to keep things fair and fun.

Teams are responsible for managing their own attendance and substitutions — matches are not rescheduled due to missing players.

Goat Getters Teams are made up of players who signed up as free agents.

• Players may change session to session

• Attendance can vary week to week

• The focus is on playing, meeting people, and having fun

Goat Getters Teams are scheduled and treated just like any other team.

Each session, I-III, runs for 6 weeks with weekly games.
Teams that sign up for the full season play across all three sessions.

Yes. Each session offers an optional Competitive Tournament for teams who want to turn things up:

Tournament Format

• One-day event

• 6v6 format with gender requirements
  Six players on the court at all times, including at least two women

• Higher-intensity, competitive play

• Epic prizes and serious bragging rights

• Team entry fee: $80 per team

The Session I–III leagues and tournaments are completely separate — join the league for weekly games and only enter a tournament if you’re looking for an extra competitive challenge.

Goat Sand Volleyball is a social-first league — not a hardcore club:

• Inclusive and welcoming
  

• High-energy courts
  

• A great way to meet people, stay active, and grab food when hunger strikes.

Play for fun, fitness, competition, or all three — it’s totally up to you.

Tournaments are for teams only. Free agents cannot sign up individually — you need to be on a registered team to play.

Volleyball Leagues — No.
Goat Sand Volleyball leagues do not have any gender-based requirements. Teams can be made up of any combination of players. The focus is on having fun, playing together, and keeping the league inclusive and welcoming for everyone.

Competitive Tournaments — Yes.
Our optional competitive tournaments follow a 6v6 format with gender requirements. Each team must have six players on the court at all times, including at least two women. This format supports balanced, high-level competition while keeping play fair and engaging.

Game ReschedulesGames are not cancelled due to weather. If a game needs to be moved for any reason, team captains must coordinate the reschedule.Both captains must agree on a new date and time before the originally scheduled game start time. Captains can connect via the contact list in your welcome email or the LeagueApps captain chat.Once agreed, one captain submits, and the other accepts the reschedule in LeagueApps to make it official.

Important: If a new date and time cannot be agreed upon before the game starts, the game is considered canceled, and the teams are disqualified from scheduling a make-up game.

Make-Up GamesWe have an open court policy — any court not being used for a scheduled match is available for make-up games.

Team – Full Season: $425 per team (Session I-III) – best value, saving $130, with guaranteed weekly games and optional tournament entry. Sign up by 4/2.
