Luxembourg, Luxembourg, March 5, 2014. Following the recent CEV Board of Administration meeting in Luxembourg, a couple of time changes to 2014 CEV beach volleyball events have been approved and with the recent Drawing of Lots for Round 1 of the 2014-2016 CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup an updated 2014 CEV beach volleyball calendar has been released.

The new dates concern the CEV Youth Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final in Antalya (Turkey) which is now set to take place at the Mediterranean resort one week earlier than previously announced – from May 15 through 17.

Additionally, the 2014 CEV U20 Beach Volleyball European Championship in Cesenatico has been moved to a later date and will now take place from September 4 through 7 in the Italian port town on the Adriatic coast.  The calendar also includes the other two age-group European Championships – the U18 from August 21 through 24 in Kristiansand (Norway) and the U22 from September 18 through 21 in Antalya (Turkey).

The updated calendar also includes three newly-added Satellite stops – a double-gender tournament in Antalya (Turkey) from May 6 through 10, a men’s tournament in Jurmala (Latvia) from August 28 through 31 and a double-gender tournament in Stuttgart (Germany) from September 10 through 14.  So now, at the senior level, in addition to this season’s beach volleyball highlight, the 2014 CEV Beach Volleyball European Championship Final from June 3 through 8 in Rome (Italy), and the Continental Cup, the 2014 calendar includes four Masters tournaments, three of which double-gender, and seven Satellite tournaments – six for men and five for women.
