NEAAU Volleyball is incredibly proudly launched the very first youth volleyball event at the Jacobs K. Javits Center in Midtown Manhattan, New York City on February 6-8, 2026. While planning is already underway for an even bigger and better second annual event, we are incredibly proud of what was accomplished in year one of our AAU New York City Open:

– 488 Teams (Max Capacity for Space Used)
– 17 States, 3 Countries, 1 Territory represented

While competition on the courts remained the top priority, the NYC Open delivered an experience that extended beyond the tournament:

– Sold out college showcase hosted on the campus of New York University
– College coach reception at PEAK Restaurant 101 stories above Manhattan
– A Celebration in the Sky for tournament champions 100 stories atop NYC at the EDGE
– See pictures and videos on @nycopenvb

A very big apple thank you the entire leadership at the Javits Center. This event would not have been possible without your exceptional partnership and commitment to the goal.

After many months of strategic meetings, I also extend tremendous gratitude to our housing partner, EventConnect, who helped ensure that teams, staff, and referees were properly accommodated.

Once again, Strategy Red Sports helped turn moments into lasting memories by capturing and creating incredible content for our new event Instagram account. More content is coming in the days and weeks ahead: @nycopenvb
