The South American Volleyball Confederation CSV released its 2016 beach volleyball calendar with the first sand action set to take place as soon as January 22.

After a meeting in Rio de Janeiro, the CSV Beach Volleyball Council announced a schedule that includes eight stops of the South American Tour between January and April and the men’s and women’s Finals, which will put an end to the Tour in early June. 

Meanwhile, a highlight video with action from the nine venues of the 2014-2015 South American Beach Volleyball Tour was published on CSV’s YouTube channel:

The South American Continental Cup Final to be held in Argentina from June 21 through 26 is also featured on the 2016 calendar.  At that event, one country per gender will earn a spot at the Rio de Janeiro 2016 Olympic Games in August, while the teams that finish second and third will get tickets to the FIVB Continental Cup Olympic Qualification in Russia.

In addition, the Council appointed the three organizers of the continental qualifications for the three age-category FIVB World Championships in 2016.  South America’s representatives at the U21 World Championships in Switzerland will be determined at a tournament in Argentina.  The best U19 duos on the continent will gather in Ecuador (to be confirmed) to vie for tickets to Cyprus 2016 and the U17 pairs will battle for South America’s spots at their World Championships in Brazil at an event to be held in Bolivia.
