Beach Volleyball takes centre stage in Valletta
News from the National Federations
Valletta, Malta, July 20, 2018. A rather unusual sight in the European City of Culture as Malta’s capital city, Valletta, is hosting the ‘Algida Beach Volley in the City 2018’. The event started on July 17 and will end on Sunday, July 22. It is happening at the city’s main square of the Maltese capital.
This innovative activity for Malta has already featured Beach Volleyball sessions with the junior players from Birkirkara Volleyball Club, Phoenix Sports Club and Sliema Wanderers Volleyball Club on various days. In the late afternoons, evenings and during the weekend a national Beach Volleyball tournament featuring the top players in the Maltese Islands will take place whilst the mornings and early afternoons will be dedicated to demonstration games and fun games for the public, including children.
The first edition of the Algida Valletta Beach Volley was possible thanks to Valletta’s own Valletta Volleyball Club and the Valletta 2018 Foundation, Malta Tourism Authority, Sportmalta, the Malta Volleyball Association, the Valletta Local Council, the Maltese Olympic Committee and Algida.
