In a thrilling development for the beach volleyball community, UKBT and Volleyball England are proud to announce that the CEV has officially endorsed the upcoming UKBT Club Championships as the qualifier for all England-based clubs aiming for the 2024 CEV Beach Volley European Cup. This significant announcement brings new excitement to the UKBT Club Championships, with the deadline for entries now extended to midnight on Sunday, 2nd June.
The top-ranked England-based club in the Championship division for both men's and women's categories will earn the right to represent England at the CEV Beach Volley European Cup, set to take place in September/October 2024 (location TBC). Clubs have the option to accept or decline this prestigious offer without any repercussions. If declined, the opportunity will pass to the next best-ranked club.
Importantly, clubs based outside of England are still welcome to compete in the UKBT Club Championships, with standard UKBT ranking points on offer. For more details on the CEV Beach Volley European Cup, visit CEV Beach Volley European Cup 2024.
