Futures in Belgium, Spain and Türkiye added to Beach Volleyball calendar

The 2024 European Beach Volleyball season will feature another three events on top of those previously announced following confirmation that three Beach Pro Tour Futures will be taking place later this summer in Belgium, Spain, and Türkiye. 

Belgium’s capital city, Brussels will welcome such a competition for the very first time with a double-gender tournament due to run there from August 1-4, 2024, only a couple of weeks after another such event scheduled to take place on Belgian soil in Leuven. This shall further cement the exponential further growth that Beach Volleyball has been experiencing in this country, with their youngsters achieving unprecedented results on the international stage. Last year, Joppe Van Langendonck and Kyan Vercauteren did historically crown themselves U21 World champions in Roi Et, Thailand. The venue set up at Muntplein, a square in Brussels downtown, will welcome Beach Volleyball players from across the globe as well as up to 2,500 fans. 

Next to the traditional season’s opener scheduled for early / mid-May in Madrid, Spain will welcome another Future later in the year and more specifically from September 18-21 when a women’s only tournament will be taking place for the first time on the beach of Castellón de la Plana, in the Valencian Community. Spain has been a real Beach Volleyball force to reckon with for many years and the members of their younger generation have already left their mark on the international stage, doing so multiple times at a variety of age-group championships. 

Finally, that very same weekend, another double-gender event will be going ahead in Türkiye’s Balikesir. Last year, the Turkish seaside resort did play host to the inaugural CEV Beach Volley European Cup, thus establishing itself as a prime destination on the European and international Beach Volleyball map following the previous successful delivery of zonal events run under the auspices of the Balkan Volleyball Association (BVA).

With the addition of these events to the calendar, all previous records have been broken – and players and fans alike can look forward to a long summer season filled with Beach Volleyball action of the finest level!
