TOURNAMENT FOOD TABLES




Some volleyball tournaments allow teams to set up food tables for them to snack on throughout the day. Check the tournament website to see if tables are allowed at the venue where you will be playing.
The venues do not always provide tables so it is best to always take one with you.
  1. First - start with a tablecloth...red black or white.
  2. Second- Add a centerpiece. The centerpiece can be an arrangement  in the center of the table,  a poster, or  a tri fold board placed on the table identifying your team and organization with player names and / or pictures.
  3. Third finish decorating the table with streamers, glitter, balloons, etc.
Table decorations can be as elaborate or as simple as you want them to be....the sky (or your wallet) is the limit.
