Teams from seven nations to contest MEVZA zonal event in Innsbruck downtown

A MEVZA zonal Beach Volleyball tournament will be taking place at Market Square, so at the very heart of the city of Innsbruck, this coming June 3-5, with participation of the top Austrian Beach Volleyball teams and elite players from abroad as well. The event in Innsbruck is part of the Austrian national tour – now known as win2day Beach Volleyball Tour PRO – as well.

Even Austrian Beach Volleyball legend Clemens Doppler will be among those due to compete in Innsbruck. The two-time European champion and silver medallist from the 2017 FIVB Beach Volleyball World Championships will take to the court in Innsbruck together with last year’s winner Thomas Kunert. They will be facing stiff domestic competition from some of the top Austrian duos – including Alexander Huber/Christoph Dressler, Felix Friedl/Maximilian Trummer and up-and-coming youngsters Laurenz Leitner/Paul Pascariuc. Their foreign opponents will come from six MEVZA countries – Czech Republic, Cyprus, Hungary, Israel, Slovakia and Slovenia.

The women’s tournament will be highly competitive as well. Magdalena Rabitsch/Anja Trailovic just claimed top honours from the latest stop of the Austrian national tour held in Graz. Szandra Szombathelyi and Lilla Villam from Hungary are the top seeds. The local fans in Tyrol will obviously support home favourites Michaela Hollaus and Martina Guggi.

The organisers have planned a number of exciting side events to entertain the crowd that will be coming together at the most iconic place in Innsbruck downtown.
