Grand Sands is located at 10750 Loveland-Madiera Road in Loveland, OH/Symmes Township, just one mile east of I-275 at exit #52. The old 84 Lumber warehouse is now an indoor volleyball complex and has been transformed into five brightly lit, heated sand volleyball courts. Grand Sands also includes an indoor restaurant, changing rooms, showers and plenty of parking for people who want to play or just come and watch.

Beach volleyball has been a popular outdoor sport for many years and has increased play with such added events as the AVP tour, Summer Olympics and the recent announcement of beach volleyball as an NCAA Division I women’s scholarship sport. Kevin Westerkamm, Grand Sands General Manager said “there are many outdoor courts in the Cincinnati area and over 5,000 active beach volleyball players.” Westerkamm also noted that “there are many more people who enjoy volleyball and would play sand volleyball all year but do not have the opportunity to play when the weather is too cold or rainy.”

Grand Sands will offer adult leagues from 6:00 to 11:00pm Sunday through Friday and will hold tournaments on Saturdays. Grand Sands will also offer boys and girls Junior High and High School Programs on weekdays from 3:00 until 5:30pm and will include instructional programs for beginners and advanced players.

More information and registering for play can be found on the website at www.GrandSandsVolleyball.com or by contacting Kevin Westerkamm at (513) 884-4388.
