2014 FIVB BEACH VOLLEYBALL U23 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

Following a memorable debut event last year, Myslowice, Poland will once again be the site of the FIVB Beach Volleyball U23 World Championships. The 2nd annual double-gender age-group event will be held June 10-15 as the FIVB now has an unprecedented four age-group World Championships for beach volleyball.

Myslowice has been the site of three men’s FIVB World Tour Open events, two women’s FIVB Tour Open events as well as three double-gender age-group World Championships (U21 in 2006, U19 in 2007 and U23 in 2013).

Long the spawning sand of FIVB Beach Volleyball stars of the future, last year’s FIVB U23 World Championships in Myslowice saw Poland’s talented host-country young guns Piotr Kantor/Bartosz Losiak win their record third FIVB age-group World Championship.

2014 FIVB BEACH VOLLEYBALL U21 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

Cyprus returns to the world stage of international beach volleyball this year when it hosts the FIVB U21 FIVB Beach Volleyball World Championships. The 14th annual double-gender age-group event will be held July 22-27 in Larnaka as the FIVB now has an unprecedented four age-group World Championships for beach volleyball held annually.

While the Cyprus Volleyball Federation has hosted several FIVB Challenger and Satellite events, this will be just the second event held in Larnaka as the city presented the 2012 FIVB U19 World Championships which were won by a men’s tandem from Poland and a women’s duo from Lithuania.

Long the developing sand of FIVB Beach Volleyball next gen stars, last year’s FIVB U21 World Championships were held in Umag, Croatia. Umag had also hosted the 2011 FIVB U19 World Championships. The U21 age-group World Championships have been held every year since 2001. Winning the men’s FIVB U21 World Championships last year in Umag were Brazil’s Gustavo Carvalhaes/Allison Cittadin while the women’s FIVB U21 World Championships gold medal was won by Poland’s Jagoda Gruszczynska/Katarzyna Kociolek.

In the first 13 years of the FIVB U21 Beach Volleyball World Championships, Brazil has garnered the most final four placements, most medals and most gold medals in both genders. In U21 men’s competition, Brazil has 10 final four placements and nine total medals including four gold medals. Other countries with men’s gold medals have been Italy, Poland and Spain with two each and with one each have been Canada, Latvia and the Ukraine.

In the first 13 years of the U21 women’s championships, Brazil has been even more dominant with 11 final four placements and 10 total medals including six gold medals. Other countries with women’s gold medals have been Poland and Switzerland with two each and with one each have been the Netherlands, Russia and the United States.

In 2012 in Halifax, Poland’s Piotr Kantor/Bartosz Losiak moved up the podium to capture the gold medal after winning the silver medal in 2011. For the women, Switzerland’s came back with new partner Anna Vergé-Dépré to win the gold medal again in the women’s competition.

In 2011, Ukraine’s Sergiy Popov/Valeriy Samoday became only the second team in FIVB history to win both age-group World Championships as they also won the youth title in 2009 in Alanya, Turkey. On the women’s competition, Switzerland’s Nina Betschart/Joana Heidrich surprised the field to give their country its first gold medal in the event.

The 2010 Alanya event marked the first-time that a player won two Beach Volleyball World Championships in the same season as USA’s Summer Ross teamed with Tara Roenicke to capture Junior title in mid-September after the 17-year-old American had captured the FIVB world title for players under the age of 19 at the end of July in Portugal by topping the podium with Jane Croson in Porto. With Ross’ two gold medal finishes, the United States joins Brazil in winning all three women’s World Championship titles – senior, junior and youth. Brazil is the only country to win all three men’s World Championships.

In 2009 at Blackpool, England, Poland became the second country to sweep the gold medals at a single U21 World Championship. The Polish pairs of Michal Kadziola/Jakub Szalankiewicz and Monika Brzostek/Kinga Kolosinska topped the podium by defeating men and women teams from Brazil and the Netherlands, respectively, for the gold medals. Brazil swept the gold medals at the 2001 and 2006 FIVB U21 World Championships. It was the second World Championship gold medal for Kadziola and Szalankiewicz as the Polish tandem won the U19 crown in 2007 at Myslowice, Poland. Brzostek placed third at the 2008 junior worlds at Brighton with Karolina Sowala.

Russian Alexandra Shiryaeva, who competed in Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, captured the gold medal at the 2003 women’s U21 World Championships with Anna Morozova. The Schwaiger sisters (Doris and Stefanie), who placed fifth at the Beijing Summer Games for Austria, claimed the bronze medal at the 2005 U21 championships.

Francesco Giontella and Paolo Nicolai of Italy won back-to-back U21 titles in 2007 (Modena) and 2008 (Brighton). At the 2006 U19 in Bermuda, Giontella and Nicolai claimed the silver medal with compatriots Matteo and Paolo Ingrosso placing third for Italy. The Ingrossos captured the 2008 U21 bronze medal.

Marleen van Iersel realized her gold medal aspirations at a FIVB U21 World Championship event as she teamed with Dutch partner Daniëlle Remmers to capture the 2008 U21 title for women. Van Iersel was playing in her ninth FIVB U21/U19 world finale since first competing internationally for the first time in 2003. A bronze medal winner at the previous two worlds for players under the age of 21 with Marloes Wesselink, van Iersel was teaming with Remmers on a FIVB podium for the second time as the pair was second at the 2006 U19s in Bermuda. Remmers also placed second in 2009 at the U21s with Michelle Stiekema, who was also second in 2008 with Sophie van Gestel.

Larnaka is the third largest city on the southern coast of Cyprus behind Nicosia and Limassol. Larnaka has a population of 72,000 and is the island’s second largest commercial port and an important tourist resort.

2014 FIVB BEACH VOLLEYBALL U17 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

Implementing another solid element of its overall plan for growth and development of the sport worldwide, the new FIVB administration has announced that starting in 2014 a fourth age-group World Championship will be held, the latest for the U17 age-group. On July 15-20, Acapulco, Mexico will be the site of the inaugural FIVB Beach Volleyball U17 World Championships.

“We are delighted to be able to organize a World Championships for the U17 age-group,” FIVB President Dr Ary S. Graça F° said. “We want to give as many young players the chance to experience international competition because it is vital to their development as beach volleyball players.”

“It also means another country can have the opportunity to organize an FIVB international tournament and learn and understand what is required to host a FIVB age-group World Championships and how the hosting federation can use the tournament to increase the popularity of the sport in their country and region.”

As part of the initiatives of the new leadership of the FIVB, the inaugural FIVB Beach Volleyball U23 World Championships were held in Myslowice, Poland and this year’s event will return to the same city in Southeast Poland for the second FIVB U23 World Championships, June 10-15. The two long-standing age-group World Championships U21 and U19 will be held in cities that have hosted other age-group events in the past. The 2014 FIVB Beach Volleyball U21 World Championships will be held in Larnaka, Cyprus, with the event set to take place from July 22-27. This age-group World Championship has been held every year since 2001 so this will be the 14th annual U21championships. The 2014 FIVB Beach Volleyball U19 World Championships will be held in Porto, Portugal on July 29 to August 3. First being held in 2002, this year will be the 13th annual U19 championships.

While this will be the first FIVB age-group World Championship in the country, Acapulco has hosted three double-gender FIVB Beach Volleyball World Tour Open events, in 1999, 2005 and 2006 and Rosarito hosted an FIVB Open in 2000.

Acapulco is a city, municipality and major seaport in the state of Guerrero on the Pacific Coast of Mexico, 300 kilometers (190 miles) southwest of Mexico City. Acapulco is located on a deep, semi-circular bay and has been a port since the early colonial period of Mexico’s history. The city is best known as one of Mexico’s oldest and most well-known beach resorts, which came into prominence in the 1950s as a getaway for Hollywood stars and millionaires. Acapulco is still famous for its nightlife and still attracts many tourists, although most are now from Mexico itself. The resort area is divided into two: The north end of the bay is the “traditional” area, where the famous in the mid-20th century vacationed; and the south end is dominated by newer luxury high-rise hotels.

The format of all the FIVB Beach Volleyball international tournaments – whether pro or age-group FIVB Beach Volleyball World Championships, FIVB Beach Volleyball Grand Slam or FIVB Beach Volleyball Open – are the same, featuring pool play followed by single elimination knockout rounds.

MEN’S TOURNAMENT CONSECUTIVE STREAKS - The most consecutive tournaments won by a men’s team was six by José Loiola/Emanuel Rego of Brazil (1999, Norway, Italy, France, Austria, Portugal and Belgium). Brazil won 11-straight men’s titles once and 10-in-a-row once.

WOMEN’S TOURNAMENT CONSECUTIVE STREAKS - The most consecutive tournaments won by a women’s team is seven by Sandra Pires/Jackie Silva of Brazil (1996, Rio, Maceió, Recife, Hermosa, Atlanta Olympics, Espinho and Ostende). The Ostende event was staged the same weekend as another “open” event in Osaka where Natalie Cook and Kerri Pottharst of Australia won the title. Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh Jennings of the United States won seven- straight titles in events they entered (2003 and 2004, but they did not compete in six events during the streak). Holly McPeak and Nancy Reno of the United States won six-straight events together in 1996. Adriana Behar and Shelda Bede of Brazil won five-straight events (1998 and 1999). The most consecutive women’s events won by a country are eight by the United States (1996) and seven twice by Brazil.

WOMEN’S MATCH - Americans Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh Jennings hold the team record for consecutive victories with 74-straight wins, including their last seven triumphs at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. After losing in the semifinals to Jia Tian and Jie Wang of China (21-19, 21-19) at the 2007 Norwegian Grand Slam, May-Treanor and Walsh Jennings started the winning streak with a bronze medal win in Stavanger over Germany’s Sara Goller and Laura Ludwig. The Americans finished the 2007 season with 41-straight wins featuring gold medal successes in Canada, Germany, Switzerland (World Championships), Austria, Brazil and Thailand. May-Treanor and Walsh Jennings posted a 28-0 record in 2008 by claiming gold medals at FIVB events in Germany, France, Norway and Beijing. May-Treanor competed and was injured while practicing for a television dance show in the United States and missed the entire 2009 season. Walsh Jennings also missed all of 2009 and all but two events at the end of the 2010 season, which she played with Nicole Branagh, to give birth to her two children, Joseph and Sundance. The pair reunited for the 2011 season and won their first five matches at the season-opening Brasília Open before losing in the gold medal match to Brazilians Juliana Felisberta Silva and Larissa França 21-16, 15-21, 15-12. The streak spanned twelve events but lasted from June 30, 2007 through April 22, 2011, a span of 3 years, 9 months, and 22 days. While May-Treanor was recuperating from her injury, Walsh Jennings extended her personal winning streak to 78 by capturing an October 2008 title in the United Arab Emirates (six matches) and winning the first three matches of the October 2010 Sanya event, both with Nicole Branagh. Her streak was snapped on October 30, 2010 in round four of the winner’s bracket by Goller and Ludwig (21-14, 14-21, 15-7), the same team she and May-Treanor beat in 2007 to start the streak. May-Treanor extended her own personal streak to 71 by winning her first two matches of the 2010 season in Brasília with Nicole Branagh while Walsh Jennings was recuperating from childbirth. They lost on April 22nd in the third round of the winner’s bracket to Goller and Ludwig, 16-21, 21-17, 15-12.

*No team won four or more gold medals
