4s tournaments have been running a long time through a few different organizers, and now I am accepting the responsibility to run them. If you have been playing in these tournaments in the past you should not notice much of a change.
Warning: It is recommended to as a minimum have experience playing in other coed tournaments such as WCVL or SmashQuest, as teams ref each other and the format is quite demanding. These tournaments are not a great way to introduce yourself to coed unless you are already high level in regular volleyball (College, University etc.), as most players need some time to adjust to the format.
