Nova Event Management Inc. was formed in 1987 to bring organized volleyball to Western and Central New York. Since then, we’ve seen 2 years of the AVP Miller Lite pro tour, many of the best players in the world have made appearances, several local players have made the leap to the big leagues and professional carriers, over 550 beach events though out Western and Central NY and the creation of one of the largest grass tournaments in the North East that benefits local charity’s…
NOVA (formally “the New York Outdoor Volleyball Association) evolved to not only manage volleyball tournaments, but get involved in Alternative Sports by hosting and managing, regional wake board competitions, the Sobe Snowboard tour, the Edgefest Skate and Skateboard tour, The New York Winter X games, Snowboarding for Breast Cancer fund raiser, the infrastructure for ESPN X Games Ski board qualifiers, as well as Jet Ski and Beach Wrestling Championships..
Nova has had the opportunity to work with some of the biggest sponsors in the industry such as, Coors, Miller Lite, Corona, Oakley, Banana Boat, Vitamin Water, Chevy, Toyota, Jose Cuervo, EPSN, and Spalding to name a few.
In our 28th year, Nova is pleased to partner with Miller Lite, to bring the Miller Lite Pro / Am Beach series to western New York.. We feel that this is a great partnership and the added support will help to grow the sport even more. We are looking forward to expanding the series by involving Ground Assault Events LLC and integrating 5k obstacle runs to both the Lollypalooza tournament and “Operation Ground Assault” 4’s championship to create a festival vibe which will include food and beverage along and area DJ’s with a spirit of giving in mind. Both events will benefit local charities.
We are excited to launch this new web site and offer online registration for all events, chat room, results page, photo and video of the week and much more as the season goes on.. Check frequently and see what’s going on in beach volleyball in western and central NY…
