PLEASANTVILLE, N.Y.  The venue of the 3rd Annual Coaches and Teachers Against Cancer Co-Ed Volleyball Tournament has been changed to Pleasantville High School.
The charity tournament will be from 4-7 p.m. Nov. 8. All proceeds go to the American Cancer Society. Last years tournament raised about $3,300.
Teachers and coaches from Pleasantville and the surrounding school districts will form teams to represent their schools in the tournament. The teams will compete in a round-robin format with 10 minutes for each game.
After that, the teams will be seeded based on their record in the round-robin portion of the tournament. In case of a tie, officials will use head-to-head results, followed by points scored against and, lastly, a coin toss.
The winners of the quarterfinal and semifinal rounds will play in a timed game and the finals will consist of one 25-point game.
Any team that registers for the event has a chance to earn a trophy, prizes donated by Michaels Tavern in Pleasantville and, last but not least, bragging rights. Greeley is the defending champion thanks to a win against Briarcliff in last years tournament.
All questions can be directed to tournament organizer Joseph Racioppo, an umpire with the Westchester County Umpires Association who lost his wife to cancer last year, at
