History

Established in 1997.

Beach Blast was the brainchild of a few guys that really loved volleyball. Their achieved goal is Toronto’s biggest indoor/outdoor beach featuring everything you need to feel like summer never ends!

George Shermer, an original Beach Blast partner, has seen hundreds of thousands people enjoy his vision of a year round beach. After partnering with Josh Gluskin in 2001, the two have expanded this dream and have helped develop other projects, including The Docks, Victory Indoor Volleyball, and their newest expansions:

–Ashbridges Bay (@ashbridgesvb)

In 2010, Beach Blast partnered with the Ontario Volleyball Association and became managers of the Ashbridges Bay Beach Volleyball League — the world’s largest adult recreational beach volleyball league, hosting over 100 courts!

–Camp Robin Hood, Sports Village

In 2014, Beach Blast spread our sand north of the city. Running programs for youth, we are happy to introduce a new Adult league in the Markham location, coming summer of 2015!

Business Owner

Josh, aka King of the Beach, has been with Beach Blast for over 11 years. He’s volunteered with Hope Tournaments and HeatWave Tournaments, to name a few, and knows more about volleyball than Misty May… We’re convinced his heart is made of volleyball. Wison variety.

He and Sir George, the man who knows everyone in the world connected to the sport, are the backbone of Beach Blast, and innovators of the sport in this country. And they’re cool guys to talk to. Go on in and say hello. Really.

The dynamic duo have been organizing, facilitating, and orchestrating beach events, leagues, fundraisers — you name it — longer then Jack Johnson has been singing about beaches. That’s pretty long…

So for your next event, give them a call. You won’t be disappointed.

Beach Blast is worth a shot if you’re looking to get your beach volleyball fix.
Pros:
Lots of courts (including outdoor)
Cons:
Poor ventilation (leads to very hot temperatures inside)
I came here for a tournament on a Monday night. First thing I noticed as soon as I walked in was how hot and humid it was. This places doesn’t have very good ventilation at all. There were 16 teams at this tournament so there were a lot of bodies inside which made it worse. It was a hot day temperature wise outside but it was like heaven compared to inside the venue. They need to do something about that.
Other than the heat problem, Beach Blast is otherwise not a bad place to play. There are a good number of courts available. They even have some courts dedicated to beach dodge ball. Outside, there are another set of courts available (why weren’t we playing there?) as well. There’s a little bar at the front that serves cold drinks. I was not able to located a water fountain of any sort so bring your own water unless you’re willing to pay for it.
Something to note, if you come in the evening, it’s very dark when you l;eave as the lighting in the area is not good at all. It’s located in an industrial area so plan accordingly, specially if you don’t drive.
All in all, Beach Blast is pretty much like all the other indoor volleyball courts I’ve been to. It’s not going to wow you at any point but you’ll have a great time nonetheless.

This is nice when you want to do beach volley ball in the winter. Be careful because there isn’t too much ventilation (so you’re breathing in sand). Bring water, there is no fountain. Not sure how clean the sand is… If you’re bringing kids, bring toys-they have volleyballs-that’s it.

Anyone looking for some sand action, here’s your fix. Beach Blast offers Friday night and Sunday afternoon drop ins. I’ve been to the Friday night drop in ($ 17, from 9pm — 1am) a few times now and actually quite liked it as compared to the other indoor volleyball courts in Toronto. HUGE area with super cool post industrial/factory «décor» from the previous operation.
A little challenging to get up there if you don’t have a car, walking up a dark street from the bus stop. is not for the faint of heart. Getting home from there at night via TTC is another challenge. Best advice: carpool/taxi, or go for their Sunday (DAY ITME) drop-ins
Liked that it’s not too cold inside since it wouldn’t be nice to freeze the moment you stopped playing/waiting for the next game. It’s usually not too busy when I was there, so it’s awesome not to be sitting around and wait. I find that people that play there are friendlier as well. Good mix of people playing 2’s, 4’s and 6’s. Not too hard to find a partner/team if you go alone.
Here’s how it works when I was there, Winner stay, loser out. You find a partner/team and go to the court you want to play in, call the next game and play the winner. If there’s a lineup, then usually peeps would agree on maximum 3 wins per team consecutively. Sometimes there’s a flipping score broad laying around, it will be great if you can ask someone along the side to keep score. If not, just keep score and call out every time one serve. Yes, yes, it’s just a game, why take it so seriously? Well, nothing is more annoying for people who are called the next game just to found out that NOBODY were keeping score.
There are lots of space and showers in the washroom. Go through a maze and then you will find the ladies washroom. A little sign/direction where the washroom is will be much appreciated for the first timers.
Beach Blast also offers leagues, clinics and tournaments of which I have never been, but heard good things about. If it’s not for the location, I most likely will sign up for more activities at Beach Blast.
