Big Pink Volleyball is coming to CU on Saturday, Oct. 4.
Teams of six to ten players can register to play for the fundraiser event, which will benefit breast cancer research.
No experience or knowledge of volleyball is necessary to compete.
The Office of Student Activities will host the event, and they will put together brackets this week. The soft deadline for registration is Wednesday, Oct. 1.
The event is called Big Pink because teams will be playing with a four-foot, bright pink ball.
The format of the tournament will be determined on the day of competition based on the number of teams. The tournament may be pool play, double elimination or single elimination.
Some teams have already registered for the event, and the day may include an exhibition game between campus administration, Student Activities Specialist Leslie Cothren said.
In addition to the tournament, students will be competing in the spirit competition. Students who dress up in their choice of costumes will compete in the spirit competition; a prize will be awarded to the team with the best costumes.
Teams can register online at imleagues.com/cameron. The cost of registration is $5 per person on the roster of the team. Proceeds go to Cancer Centers of Southwest Oklahoma.
