22 Countries in Men’s Beach Volleyball at CAC Games San Salvador
COSTA DEL SOL, El Salvador, June 20, 2023.-
The men’s Beach Volleyball Tournament at the San Salvador 2023 Central
American and Caribbean Games will start on Wednesday at 10:00 a.m.
(local time) with 22 pairs battling to top the podium.
Cuba, winners of the past two editions of the Games, is ready to defend
their title, but with the new duo of Noslen Díaz/Jorge Alayo.
“We are prepared to reach the podium and give our country another joy.
We’ve been playing together in several events this year, including in
Brazil and we believe we can continue the winning streak at these
Games”, said Noslen.
Mexican Juan Virgen, who is playing in his fourth CAC Games, winner of
two silver medals and one bronze, said that this will be a competitive
tournament. “There are good teams, we are all aiming for the podium, I
have won several medals in previous tournaments and the goal is to
continue, despite the good teams in the competition”.
Armando Guatemala, a player of the host country who will defend El
Salvador’s honor said “we have trained hard because we want to have a
good performance. We are aware it will be challenging, we have difficult
matches, but we want to put our country’s name in high, even more while
playing at home with the support of our people”.
