Built for college athletes.
College Grass Open was created to bring together the best college volleyball athletes in the Northeast for high-level competition on grass. What started as a shared vision among passionate players has grown into a tournament built by college athletes, for college athletes. Our goal is to create a stage where players can represent their schools, compete hard, and enjoy the game in a fun outdoor environment.
We believe grass volleyball is the perfect mix of competitive fire and social energy. Rivalries are real, but so are the friendships in the college volleyball community. The College Grass Open is designed to be intense on the court and welcoming off it — a place where athletes can test their skills, meet other players, and build connections across schools and states.
Our mission is to grow the college grass volleyball scene and build the biggest college-only grass tournament brand in the Northeast. With strong organization, great competition, and a community-driven vibe, we aim to make this a must-play event every summer. Whether you're coming to win, improve, or just enjoy the game, this is where college players compete, connect, and represent.
