No holiday for May 1, but rather a full week of intensive training, beach volleyball in the morning and afternoon with Silvia and Darius, who came especially from California to integrate with our group of junior athletes. A week is always too short, but thankfully the memories that it will let in our hearts will stay for a long time. Hopefully see you soon again !

A camp that will combine the passion of beach volleyball with the desire to spend holidays in the atmosphere of Brazil. Welcome to all who would join us in this adventure.

The summer season is over, the Brazilian tourists that we host during the past two months have gone home. Today is the start of school for the family of BeachVolleyCenter, binders are ready and the pencils sharpened. The sun, sea and sand are always at the rendezvous, awaiting the first campers who will come « beaching » with us in 2012. Waiting for our contacts to materialize in beach camps, we continue our family life favored by this heavenly setting and wonderful climate.
For Christmas and New Year’s Eve, we had the visit of two couples of travelers: Julia and Kaya from Berlin, GER, who came to BeachVolleyCenter to complete their four months journey before taking the airplane back home, and Sandra and Alex, from Lausanne, SUI, who have cut their two-month journey by a week of intense beach volleyball with us. 2012 has started under the sign of the sand, sweat, and promising progresses.
Julia and Kaya, both from Berlin, are in a four months travel. They will spend a few days with us at Christmas to enjoy the beaches of our region, but basically to make a beach volleyball camp in our training center. This mixture with our Brazilian hosts will certainly be explosive, and will leave little rest to the balls. A good way to finish the year at the net !

The efforts of these two weeks of basketball ended for Ioane by owning the Trophy awarded to the improved player of the camp. Ioane, but also discovered another reality of this sport, a game of contact and muscles, where the lack of weight and experience make a lot of difference. But the dream will not last long, today a new challenge in the sand is waiting for us in Gerlafingen, where we will participate in our third tournament. Hopefully, despite the fatigue accumulated, we will represent with dignity the Beach Volleyball Center.
The arrival of Eric Gordon, rising star of the Los Angeles Clippers and starter of the U.S. team that won the last world championships in Turkey in 2010, have imposed us a break in the training session for a « photo ». I slipped without being noticed in the group of Ioane, in the emotion of the moment, no one has noticed a slightly wrinkled player … Very accessible, Eric Gordon was the joy of the « campers« who have able to follow him throughout the day.
