Elle Swim Model Volleyball Tournament Returns to Miami Beach
This weekend, Miami Beach will host the much-anticipated Elle Swim Model Volleyball tournament, an event that combines beach sports with charity. Now in its 15th year, this unique competition is known for its vibrant atmosphere and glamorous participants.
Details of the Event
The tournament is set to take place on March 29-30 at the 12th Street and Oceanfront area of Miami Beach. All activities are free and open to the public, ensuring that everyone can join in the fun. The event aims to raise funds for “The Little Lighthouse Foundation,” further emphasizing its philanthropic goals.
A Star-Studded Lineup
According to Olivia Ormos, a prominent figure associated with the event, “This is the sexiest event on the beach, on the planet actually. We’re bringing together models on the most beautiful beach, in my opinion, in the country, all for a great cause.”
Gameplay Structure
The tournament will feature participation from 10 modeling agencies, with around 200 models on the sand. The games will start on Saturday, with all teams playing throughout the day without elimination. The competitive spirit ramps up on Sunday, where teams face off in a more structured format.
Ormos notes that “it’s all about the bragging rights; believe it or not, we’ve even had years where our camera team has had to run back replays in that championship match.” This highlights the seriousness with which the models approach this uniquely engaging competitive event.
Dual Roles in Action
Among the participants is Brooke Brazelton, who is not only competing but also DJing at the event. This marks her fifth year of involvement in Model Volleyball and her third year as a DJ. “I’m either on the sidelines, cheering my players on or in the action,” Brazelton said. She will bring her musical flair on Saturday from 3-4 pm, aiming to energize the crowd while her team competes.
A Message to Attendees
The event is crafted for both participants and spectators, welcoming everyone to enjoy the vibrant beach atmosphere. As Ormos stated, “The sun is shining, the water is blue, the wind is in your face, the sand is on your toes. I want to find you with your margarita, sitting on the sidelines, excited to be there.”
