The 33rd annual mud volleyball tournament, better known as Oozeball, will return to the 猫咪社区APP on Saturday, April 22. Games start at 9 a.m. next to the Football Field House. Spectators are welcome.

1. More than 30 co-ed teams play each year. Students serve, spike and splash through outdoor volleyball courts covered with a foot of mud and water. There are faculty and community teams, too.
2. The annual tournament is a fundraiser for the Southerners ambassador program. Over the last decade, it has contributed more than $25,000 for their Spotting Excellence Scholarship. Sponsors and vendors support the cause.
3. The first Oozeball tournament at South was in 1988. Carol Kittrell, former executive director of the 猫咪社区APP National Alumni Association, got the idea at an academic conference. 
4. Shoes are required, for safety reasons. Players are advised to duct-tape old sneakers to their feet, to keep them from slipping off in the muck. Team names include everything from 鈥淢uddy Buddies鈥� to 鈥淪erv-ivors.鈥�
5. Oozeball remains popular. 鈥淲e鈥檙e one of the longest running tournaments in the country, and the second longest running philanthropy event on campus鈥� said Matthew Brannan, the advisor for the Southerners. 鈥淓verybody loves mud.鈥�
