  • Sign Up for OOze Ball

    OOzeball is a single-elimination volleyball tournament played in several inches of glorious mud! It is one of the most popular events held on campus, hosting up to 400 teams and drawing over 3,000 students and spectators. This year's tournament will take place from

     The UConn Student Alumni Association started OOzeball in 1984, and it is an annual tradition that has since been adapted at many colleges and universities across the country! In 2004, OOzeball celebrated its 21st year at UConn and was chosen by Sports Illustrated as the “Best Mud Volleyball” in the country in the “Best of College Sports” issue. In addition to this, Sports Illustrated: On Campus voted OOzeball number 33 on its list of the “Top 100 Things To Do Before You Graduate: No Matter The Cost.” This year we are celebrating OOzeball's 36th year.

     To play, pre-registration is required and is $120 per team; all we ask is that you have 6 - 8 players including at least 2 who are male-identified and at least 2 who are female-identified. Your team fee includes an official Mudvengers T-shirt for each player!

     Current UConn students, faculty/staff, and alumni are allowed to play. Team captains must be current students or faculty/staff. All players must be at least 18 years old. 

     All players will need a valid UConn NetID to register as part of team and will need to show a valid UConn ID and Spring Weekend wristband at the event. Alumni must instead provide a government-issued photo ID, and they will not need or receive Spring Weekend wristbands.
