Denmark announces teams for Continental Cup third round
2014-2016 CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup - Men & Women
Copenhagen, Denmark, March 20, 2015. The four Danish Beach Volleyball teams for the third round of the 2014-2016 CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup due to take place on May 9-10 in Montpellier, France, were announced on Friday.
The Elite Director of Beach Volleyball in Denmark, Mr Lars Mayland, has named the four teams who will be trying to take Denmark one step closer to the 2016 Rio Olympics.
Both the Danish women and men are going to join actions on May 9-10 in Montpellier, France, and in order to optimise their preparation Mr Mayland has already disclosed the names of the players that will be carrying Denmark’s hopes in the competition.
“The first team for the men’s competition will be composed of Peter Kildegaard and Kristoffer Abell. They are also going to represent Denmark at the inaugural European Games this summer. The other team will be the reigning Danish champions and brothers, Sebastian Venndt Kaszas and Oliver Venndt Kaszas,” Mayland says.
”As for the women’s teams, we continue with some well-known faces in the shape of Line Trans Hansen and Helle Søndergård as well as Eva Mielskov Bang and Cecilie Køllner Olsen (pictured). It is the same teams that on home soil in Odense secured a spot in the third round of the Continental Cup last September,” Mayland continues.
The Danish men will take on teams from France, Italy and Slovakia whilst the Danish women are due to play duos from the host country as well as from Italy and Israel once the CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup stops in Montpellier.
