King of the Court is a different way to play beach volleyball. Instead of two teams competing against each other, there are five teams on court. The court is divided into a King’s side and a challenger side. It’s a knockout race that makes every rally count!
For next year’s match, it is divided into two categories - men and women; 13 teams from men, while 10 teams for women.
Qatar’s very own Younousse Cherif and Ahmed Tijan will be competing in the said match.
Among the countries who will be participating under men’s category include Latvia, Austria, Spain, Sweden, Poland, USA, Switzerland, Australia, Netherlands, Germany, and Latvia/USA.
On women’s category: Canada, Norway, Japan, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Austria/Latvia, Germany, and USA.
King of the Court is all about getting to the King’s side and scoring points there.
A King of the Court match starts with five teams. Before the match, they draw playing cards to determine which team may start on the side where points are scored.
The remaining four teams start in order of the cards drawn.
A match consists of three rounds of fifteen minutes. After the first round, the team with the fewest points is eliminated.
The second round starts after a short break with the four remaining teams. After another fifteen minutes, the team with the fewest points is eliminated.
The final round is played by three teams. Whoever has the most points after fifteen minutes, or who is the first to reach fifteen points, wins the match.
