Joss Bay BeachFest by London Beach Volleyball Club

12 - 13 June, 2010

With over 50 participants, Joss Bay BeachFest by London Beach Volleyball Club proved a great weekend of competition.

The open 4-a-side competition was hotly contested, and while the referees appointed to the event hoped for “Ref’s Revenge”, they were taken out of the competition by the “Sand Witches”, who finished the day in 3rd place.

Vouchers for free surf lessons from Joss Bay Surf School were taken home by the winners, “TDC Sport Matters”, who won a closely fought Final against “Waikiki Beach”.

The men’s 2-a-side competition was won by Davide Grandolfo and Bero Bobus, who took home a London Beach Volleyball Club Hoodie each. They had to work hard in the Final to beat Tomek Lasocki and Dominik Peksa. Christoph Datler and Lloyd Lee took third place from Juan-Carlos Rodriguez and Laurent Peacock.

Gabi Medricka and Frances Pinero also took home LBVC hoodies after beating Petra Jurikova and Tereza Hejretova in the women’s 2-a-side Final. Katja Gless and Katarina Zajacova prevailed over Dorle Schreiber and Agne Skirmontaite to take third place.

Goodie Bags from Action for Kids were presented to the Referees and to the runners up in all Saturday competitions.

A full list of results is available here. 

The Saturday evening BBQ proved popular with players, who enjoyed a relaxed meal on the beach in the afternoon sun before heading back to the campsite.

Sunday saw players randomly allocated to 3-a-side teams in a casual round robin competition,
