The 2024/2025 Australian Tour Series

The Australian Roundnet Association is proud to present the 2024/2025 Australian Tour Series (ATS).

Our fifteen tournament tour series is back and better than ever. With the 2024 Roundnet World Championships wrapped up, all eyes are on the ATS. Who will be our Women's Div champions? Who will be our Men's Division champions?

The ATS will take us to most major Australian cities and culminate in a huge two-day tournament in Sydney which will feature the exciting Mixed Division Championships - a highlight of the tour series.

What is going to happen this year? We are going to see more tournaments with complete Women's Divisions! We are going to see more competitors overall and we are also going to see more casual roundnet enthusiasts rock up and join the vibe. We are here for you if you are elite but we are also here for you if you are a "no-training" kind of athlete. If that's you book yourself into our Casual Division at select tour stops for lots of laughs and a great day out.

For the competitors pushing themselves this season we have more consistent tournament formats and an improved ranking system that will reward participation in our Tour Stops and Majors so that your National Ranking is not so heavily weighted to performance at the National Championships.

We also have a new membership approach which aims to drive connection and action through our growing clubs.

With that, we are announcing our three official Australian Roundnet Clubs!

Sydney Roundnet

Melbourne Roundnet

Brisbane Roundnet

We are so excited for an incredible year of roundnet and want to see you out there.

If that isn't quite enough to get you pumped up, don't forget, we are on the search for our 2025 Asian Cup Squad. Who will make the cut this year?

How to Play

If you aren't familiar with the rules, that's okay, we are here to help. Our video below will get you up to speed really quickly.

Roundnet Basics

2 vs. 2

With two people on each team, the server sets up opposite their opponent. The point starts when one team hits the ball down onto the net so it bounces back up towards the other team.

3 Touches, 360 Degrees

Just like in beach volleyball, teams then have up to three alternating hits to return the ball onto the net. After the serve there are no sides. It is a 360 degree game and the ball can be hit in any direction. 

Scoring

If a team can't return the ball onto the net with their 3 touches, the opposing team scores 1 point. A shot that hits the ground, rim, or bounces more than once on the net is no good. First team to 21 wins!
