NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship

May 2-4, 2025

Witness history being made during the NCAA Beach Volleyball Championship in Gulf Shores as the champion is crowned Sunday, May 4. The action begins on Friday, May 2. The final two teams will play for the championship crown on Sunday morning. Five collegiate courts and five practice courts are set up on our beautiful white-sand beaches.

The student-athletes, coaches and fans will bring their intensity and love for the sport to the Alabama Gulf Coast and leave it all on the beach until there’s one team left standing. Alabama's Beaches Sports & Events, the city of Gulf Shores, and the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) have hosted this event since its inaugural tournament in 2016 and are thrilled to host again this year.
