FAQ CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final

What is the CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final?

The CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final is the last qualifying tournament for the Olympic Games in Tokyo, which will take place from July 23 to August 8.

How does the CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final work?
In contrast to ‘normal’ beach volleyball tournaments, the CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final is played with national teams. Each participating country selects two teams per gender. The first-seeded team from country A will meet the second-seeded team from country B and vice versa. If after those two matches there is a tie on the board, a golden match will be played that will bring the decision. There is 1 ticket to the Olympic Games per gender for the winning country. The country itself decides which team they can send.

Which teams will participate in the event?
Sixteen countries per gender participate in the CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final. The top 15 of the Olympic ranking is directly placed for the Olympic Games and is not allowed to participate in the CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final. If a country has already qualified for the Games with two teams, they will be replaced by a team that finished in sixth place in the second round of the CEV Beach Volleyball Continental Cup Final. The draw will take place on Wednesday 16 June and then the schedule will be announced.

Is a corona protocol used?
For the corona protocol, we work closely with the European Volleyball Association, the National Olympic Committee and the Dutch government. The protocol will be shared with all visitors a few days before the event and will consist of matters such as a health check of all visitors, hygiene measures, mandatory masks, etc.
