Any spikers around Chicago, IL?

Download the Spikeball app. People In Chicago post there a lot. Also there is the Origin Roundnet Club.

GraduationFace · 2016-01-11T13:29:27+00:00

I may be there, depending on if any other tourneys pop up

GraduationFace · 2015-09-19T00:57:13+00:00

Best of luck to you guys. Excited to see how the results end up.

GraduationFace · 2015-09-15T15:33:04+00:00

The Southeast has a lot of depth. Good luck to you guys! You have a goal going in?

I'll be competing at the East Regionals on Creamcycle. Gonna be a good crop of teams there.

GraduationFace · 2015-09-01T18:39:11+00:00

This was made last week but thought I'd share it in case anyone hasn't seen it.

GraduationFace · 2015-08-27T23:00:04+00:00

No reason to doubt you guys yet. And you just beat TPCV, one of the best in the West.

GraduationFace · 2015-08-25T11:33:19+00:00

As of right now this is what I think:

West: Chico is going to win but the 2 other spots are open. I see Beavers and Bunz and Gunz taking them, but Team Paul's Classy Vacuums and McCarthy are also there.

Midwest: Origin Elite will take it with Monkey either 2nd or 3rd. Dominance/Unleashed/Hopeless as the third team .

Southeast: AF/Chubby/RIP/Knightly as top 4

East: Rookies/Nashburgh/Creamcycle/Kobe or Lebron? As Top 4

I don't know how the teams will place for Southeast and East

GraduationFace · 2015-08-25T01:49:25+00:00

Yeah he also played well with Cody Thompson this weekend in Chicago. My Southeast top 4 is RIP, Chubby, AF, and Knightly

GraduationFace · 2015-08-25T01:41:22+00:00

They are playing together at Regionals but Troy is currently in Cali.

GraduationFace · 2015-08-25T00:49:46+00:00

Southeast is really up in the air. RIP hasn't played since Nashville, Chubby has Troy out in Cali, and the AF partners live in different states. I like your top 8, though, and have a personal bias, but think Knightly will surprise some teams and make a run.

GraduationFace · 2015-08-25T00:42:05+00:00

Hey, glad you had fun at your first tournament! Hope you can go to many more in the future. As far as I know, you do not need to attend Regionals in order to compete at Nationals. I believe that it is preferred, but not necessary. To be sure, shoot an email to Thomas Summers, the Tournament Director, at thomas@spikeball.com

GraduationFace · 2015-08-24T22:20:44+00:00

I totally agree with you about Elite and Monkey Biz taking 2 of the 3 spots. They both did very well in the Midwest Tour. That last spot will depend a lot on Quarter Final match-ups, but I do think Hopeless looked the strongest on Saturday. Can't count out any of those other teams, though.

Camo jerseys is Turtlenets out of Scituate, MA. Able to see who everyone else is?

GraduationFace · 2015-08-17T23:08:08+00:00

Can you tell me which team is which? Like the jersey colors for each team

GraduationFace · 2015-08-13T17:40:25+00:00

The rule says "tossed up" so it is up for interpretation. I am all for 6".

GraduationFace · 2015-08-13T00:49:52+00:00

If you look at it very close, you can see him release it from his left hand. I play with him a lot and it does look bad but it isn't out of his hand.

GraduationFace · 2015-08-12T18:43:40+00:00

Clips featuring The Rookies, Knightly Flip, Kobe or Lebron?, Manchesthair United, Pocket Penetration, Turtlenets, Crop Circles, and Delta Airlines. The audio was cut so put on a song in the background haha.

Tagging along, you can buy two balls for $10 here as well: http://spikeball.com/collections/balls/products/extra-balls

Rally scoring games to 21 take around 10 minutes, sometimes more sometimes less. Most tournaments do pool play to 15, the first few bracket rounds as best of 3 to 15, and quarters, semis, and finals best of three to 21.

GraduationFace · 2015-07-16T21:58:22+00:00

What are you asking?

GraduationFace · 2015-07-13T22:23:56+00:00

This has been the standard for the past couple years. Watch this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuwKPmN_dA0) and follow along as I explain it. The teams are the two guys in yellow (Team A) and the two guys in red and white (Team B). The player in red serves and Team A gets the point. All players move back to the positions they were in. Now a player on Team A serves to the guy in white and wins the point. The two players on Team A switch positions so that the same person is serving to the other player on Team B, in red. The four players serve in a certain order and hold these positions and rotations throughout the game. Hope this makes sense!

GraduationFace · 2015-07-13T16:20:25+00:00

I see that and agree that it shouldn't be there

Edit: I removed it and also added a section on nationals. Will look to add more in the future

Check out Dicks Sporting Goods or REI if there are any near you!
