AVP Womens News - TV Update
* OLD 2002 information below,stay tuned as to what AVP women's events will be
scheduled for broadcast on this network in 2005.

NEW YORK (Variety) - Geraldine Laybourne's Oxygen Media will cablecast five of the seven women's Assn. of Volleyball Professionals (AVP) tournaments this summer. The deal is consistent with Oxygen's recently announced strategy of focusing only on high-visibility women's sports. Six weeks ago, Oxygen laid off 20 people in its sports division, reducing the number of events from 31 per year to about 12. Lydia Stephans, president and executive producer of Oxygen Sports, called the AVP tournaments "the premier women's beach volleyball competition in the world." In addition to the five Oxygen cablecasts, the AVP will get three live broadcasts on NBC.
Oxygen's five cablecasts will run on consecutive Sunday afternoons at 2, beginning June 9.

AVP Hour on the radio

Courtesy of Hugo Rec.Sport.Volleyball

In yesterday's LA Times (May 17, 2002), a column
written by Larry Stewart, he mentiones that:

"Karch Kiraly and Sinjin Smith will co-host a new
weekly show, "The AVP Hour," on KMPC (1540 AM) Thursdays,
7-8 p.m., beginning next week (May 23, 2002)."

However, I listened to KMPC earlier today (Sat. May 18)
and I heard a commercial for it and "Geeter" (Chris McGee)
said that he and Sinjin will be hosting this new
weekly show. He also said that if you don't listen
you'll get sand kicked in your face! ;-) Anyway,
whoever is hosting, it's good to know that the
vball community is getting high profile ambassadors
of the game to get the word out about beach
volleyball on the radio!
Yay volleyball! I hope that we can continue this
well into the future. :-)

May-Treanor dominates awards while Rogers is MVP
October 6, 2006

Todd Rogers wins MVP on men's side; May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh, and Stein Metzger and Mike Lambert awarded Team of the Year honors at 2006 AVP Players' Banquet
LOS ANGELES, October 5, 2006
Misty May-Treanor and Todd Rogers took home top honors Thursday night as MVPs of the AVP 2006 season at the Players' Banquet. For the fourth consecutive year, May-Treanor and partner Kerri Walsh were voted 2006 Team of the Year. The honor of the men's Team of the Year was awarded to the CROCS Cup winning team of Stein Metzger and Mike Lambert, who teamed up for the first time this year. All of the awards presented were voted on by the athletes of the AVP.
The star of the evening was May-Treanor, who captured four titles, including the 2006 women's MVP award, Team of the Year, Best Offensive Player for the third year in a row, as well as her first award as the Best Defensive Player. May-Treanor became the first player on either the men's or women's side to win both Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year in one season.
May-Treanor's stats with her partner Walsh provide a resounding exclamation point to her unprecedented awards: This season, they became the winningest team in domestic women's history, finishing with 39 career titles together in U.S. tournaments and a single-season most 13 of 16 domestic titles; they ended the season with 35 straight victories; compiled an astounding 82-3 match record; have played in the finals 44 of 45 AVP events together; and will take a seven-tournament winning streak into the 2007 season. As an individual, May-Treanor finished in the top five in four different statistical categories in terms of per game averages: digs (fifth), kills (fifth), kill percentage (fourth) and hitting percentage (third).
"My husband told me to just say thank you and get off the stage," May-Treanor said. "I just want to say thank you to everyone including my partner and CROCS for all their support. I also want to thank my teammate Kerri Walsh. Sometimes I feel like I want to say I want to spend the rest of my life with you, but that isn't right. I want to say that, but I really mean the rest of my volleyball life."
"Misty May-Treanor is a doll and a pleasure, and I look forward to playing with her for years to come," Walsh said.
On the men's side, the teams of Rogers and Phil Dalhausser and Metzger and Lambert battled throughout the season for domination on the AVP Tour. A closely-contested Team of the Year award went to Metzger and Lambert. The duo played in 14 of 15 Final Fours this season, more than any other team; their 11-match winning streak at one point tied for the longest this season; won the inaugural CROCS Cup by a slim six points; and compiled a 67-15 match record.
"In the middle of the season, we just picked up and took care of business," Metzger said. "We didn't care who led the way. We just needed to find our way home."
Rogers captured two titles, including the 2006 men's MVP and the Defensive Player of the Year. Rogers and Dalhausser won eight of 16 titles, including Rogers winning both post-season events: King of the Beach (best individual player) and the Best of the Beach (best team on the beach). Rogers won nine AVP CROCS Tour titles, the most since Kent Steffes in 1998; had a 9-1 mark in AVP championship matches; his 10 finals appearances were the most of any player this year; and will take an 11-match winning streak including the last three titles into 2007.
"This whole year has been so surreal," Rogers said. "If somebody had told me this, I wouldn't have believed them. I couldn't be happier in the way this year has turned out for my career."
Dalhausser captured the award for 2006 men's Offensive Player of the Year as well as the Most Improved Player. The "Thin Beast" collected $143,375 in earnings, more than two and one half times what he made last season; led the tour in blocks for the second year in a row (432), in addition to kill percentage (.627) and hitting percentage (.481). Last year, Dalhausser won only one event his first ever win with partner Nick Lucena and finished first in blocks (405) and sixth in hitting percentage (.588).
Nicole Branagh, last year's Rookie of the Year, took home Most Improved Player on the women's side. In her first 19 pro beach events, Branagh had a best of fifth, while in her last 12 events, she was in the semifinals nine times, including two finals appearances.
"You know the beach is our office, and we are the luckiest people in the world," Branagh said.
There was a tie on the women's side for Rookie of the Year between Logan Tom and April Ross, with Brad Keenan earning the honor for the men. In Hermosa Beach, Keenan went in through the qualifier, then placed third, tying for the best finish from a qualifier in AVP history. Tom finished as high as fifth. Ross finished ninth in back-to-back tournaments her career best knocking off three top-10 teams in the process.
The 2006 AVP tour had 16 stops and has scheduled 18 for the 2007 season. This season the AVP was telecast on NBC, Fox Sports Net and FOX for the first time.

Volleyball Vacations coming to Grand Cayman

Friday, March 2, 2007
During a recent one-day stop in Grand Cayman, Volleyball Vacations founder Albert Hannemann took time out from his adult volleyball clinics to run a kids clinic for year three and four students at Montessori by the Sea.
The youngsters received professional instruction from the 14-year Association of Volleyball Professionals (AVP) veteran and past tour event champion.
The students also got to watch one of their teachers, Wanda Brenton, play a game with Mr Hannemann against two members of the Cayman Islands Beach Volleyball Committee.
Afterwards, Mrs Brenton said it had been a great day for the kids to discover a sport they may have not been exposed to before. “Albert is great with kids. His ability to keep them all involved and interested throughout the clinic was unbelievable. The kids and parents were talking about how much they enjoyed the clinic for days,” she enthused.
Mr Hannemann is no stranger to working with kids, he is currently Vice President of the Dig for Kids Foundation which was founded in January 2000 by his cousin, Olympic Gold Medalist Eric Fonoimoana.
The purpose of the foundation is to provide academic mentoring and athletic training to kids in disadvantaged communities. Through the foundation, more than 9500 children have been taught the basic skills of volleyball and twelve Excellence in Volleyball and Academics Scholarships have been awarded to high school seniors.
Mr Hannemann is currently working with the Cayman Islands Volleyball Federation (CIVF) on plans to return to the Cayman Islands in early 2008 with his Volleyball Vacations Company.
Volleyball Vacations will bring 100 guests to the island for a weeklong visit, during which they play volleyball and learn more about the sport from top AVP players.
Mr Hannemann said he is excited at the prospect of coming back to Grand Cayman. “This was my second trip to Cayman and the Volleyball Federation here has been extremely helpful in making this our signature annual event,” he explained. Adding that he plans to arrive, with other professional players, a few days early for the 2008 event and conduct further clinics for local kids.
The CIVF say they are very proud to be able to bring a professional level programme such as Volleyball Vacations to Grand Cayman and expect the trip to generate further interest in the sport.

AVP Brooklyn Open Presented by Cushman & Wakefield Coney Island,New York August 23rd - 26th, 2007

AVP Tour 2007 Event Coverage

Coney Island Area:
Geographically, Coney Island is the westernmost of the barrier islands of Long Island, about four miles long and one-half mile wide. It was formerly an actual island, separated from the main part of Brooklyn by Coney Island Creek, part of which was little more than tidal flats. There were plans into the 20th century to dredge and straighten the creek as a ship canal, but these plans were abandoned and the center portion of the creek was filled in for construction of the Belt Parkway before World War II. The western and eastern ends are now peninsulas.
Coney Island still maintains a broad sandy beach from West 37th Street at Sea Gate through the Coney Island and Brighton Beach to the beginning of the community of Manhattan Beach, a distance of approximately two-and-a-half miles (~4.0 km). The beach is continuous and is served for its entire length by the broad Riegelmann boardwalk, reputed to be the world's longest, and the subject of the famous song "Under the Boardwalk," first popularized in 1964. A number of amusements are directly accessible from the north side of the boardwalk, as is the New York Aquarium and a variety of food shops and arcades.
In August 2006 Coney Island will host a major national volleyball tournament by the Association of Volleyball Professionals. The tournament, usually held on the West Coast, is to be televised live on NBC. The league will build a 4,000-seat stadium and 12 outer courts next to the Boardwalk for the event. Its promotional partner is Brooklyn Sports and Entertainment

AVP returns to the Big Apple
Kiraly probable for Brooklyn with strained calf
By Monique Moyal / avp.com
Get ready for one of the biggest events on the East Coast, when the AVP continues its swing to the Big Apple and lands in Coney Island.
That means sightseeing can go on for one full week, with some players and staff staying on the Atlantic Coast rather than going back home to California.
That's good news for husband and wife, Casey Jennings and Kerri Walsh.
"Kerri and I have been enjoying all the sights," said Jennings. "We have a couple of things scheduled. We're gonna drive over to New York on Monday. We love New York."
But the big promise New York holds is the probable return of Karch Kiraly (calf) to action during his final year on the AVP Crocs Tour. He has not played in a match since the Seaside Heights Open opened the month of July.
If Kiraly comes back, Kevin Wong will once again pair up with his original partner. That leaves John Mayer a man out.
Mayer said he expects to return with Matt Prosser for the Brooklyn Open next week.
"I'm hoping we can play next weekend in New York," said Mayer. "I think Karch will be back and this was just a good opportunity [to pair with Wong] and I had to give it a try. But Matt's awesome."
The 2007 stop in Brooklyn will only be the second time the tour has hit up the borough. In Brooklyn's inaugural event in 2006, Mike Lambert-Stein Metzger took the crown for the men, while Walsh and Misty May-Treanor grabbed the women's title.
Metzger and Lambert have won four tournaments in 2007, but their last was in Chicago, which opened the ongoing seven-week stretch of travel. They are looking to get back on track and defend their title on Coney Island.
If Kiraly returns, he too will have some defending to do.
Although he didn't take the 2006 Brooklyn title, Kiraly owns both the 1993 and 1994 AVP New York Open titles. He might like to get back in the winner's circle after coming close during the Tampa Open in June.
But other teams will also try to crack the top teams on the men's side of the draw. When Jennings and Matt Fuerbringer finished second in Boston, they accounted for the third straight new team in 2007 to enter the final aside from the usual top three teams: Phil Dalhausser-Todd Rogers, Lambert-Metzger and Jake Gibb-Sean Rosenthal.
John Hyden and Brad Keenan started things off in Chicago and Dax Holdren and Sean Scott took note and followed that up with their first finals appearance in Manhattan Beach.
But who is going to do it next?
They can take note from the women's side, as Elaine Youngs and Nicole Branagh finally came together to stop the imposing momentum of May-Treanor and Walsh in Boston, foiling their plans for an 11th title in 2007.
Youngs and Branagh will keep at it for the remainder of the season, hungry for their fourth title of 2007.
Come back to avp.com all weekend from Thursday, Aug. 23, to Sunday, Aug. 26, to see how things pan out.

Karch TV special to air Monday night
Program will focus on retiring legend's life, beach career
AVP
LOS ANGELES — Beach volleyball legend Karch Kiraly will be honored in a tribute titled "Karch Kiraly ... The King of the Beach" that will air August 20 on FSN West at 10:30 p.m. PT following the Angels-Yankees game and be streamed on avp.com.
Kiraly, the "Michael Jordan of beach volleyball," will retire from the AVP Tour after this season. Kiraly will be appearing on "Angels Live," FSN West's pre- and postgame shows to promote the special. He'll also make an appearance in the broadcast booth with announcers Steve Physioc and Rex Hudler.
"Karch Kiraly ... The King of the Beach" will focus on both Kiraly's life and his successes on the sand, including his years growing up in Santa Barbara, Calif., learning the game from his father, Dr. Laszlo Kiraly, a Hungarian immigrant. The program follows his rise to stardom on the indoor courts and his adjustment to returning to the sand. His personal life, including his relationship with his wife, Janna, and their sons Kristian and Kory, will also be featured. AVP stars both past and present (including current star player and former partner Mike Lambert and current AVP Tour pro Dax Holdren) were interviewed for this special, as well as Steve Timmons (1984 and 1988 Olympic teammate), Mike Dodd (beach legend) and his parents Laszlo and Tony Kiraly.
Kiraly has won 148 beach titles — the most all-time — and has captured at least one tournament in 24 of the 27 seasons he has played, a career span
