Seaside beach will be covered with 245 volleyball nets, plus all the accompanying accoutrements of such a wide-scale event. With the Seaside Beach Volleyball Tournament in direct competition with Venice, Italy’s beach volleyball tournament for world supremacy, Mercer is hopeful the Glow Volley could put Seaside over the top to become the No. 1 beach volleyball tournament in the world. “We’ve been in competition with AeQuilbrium Beach Volleyball Tournament in Venice, Italy for a few years now,” Mercer said. The Seaside volleyball tournament is open for all, but many of the competitors are from the West Coast.
