Guadalajara Gears Up for the 7th Stop

of the 2025 NORCECA Beach Volleyball Tour

ZAPOPAN, Jalisco, Mexico, September 4, 2025. – The excitement of beach volleyball comes to Guadalajara for the first time with the seventh stop of the 2025 NORCECA Continental Tour, to be held September 5-7 at the Conjunto Santander de Artes Escénicas in Zapopan.

Mexico is hosting four Tour stops during the 2025 season, with Puerto Madero, Tamaulipas, and Manzanillo, Colima already completed. Guadalajara marks the third Mexican stop before their final leg in Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche.

The 2025 NORCECA Tour is key for collecting points in both the continental and world rankings, and it is part of the qualification process for the 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games in Santo Domingo, making it highly competitive and attractive for the participating national teams.

This stop has a pre-registration of 29 teams from 12 countries. The official confirmation will take place after the technical meeting, held one day before the competition kicks off.

Following the success in Manzanillo, the medalists from that stop return to the sand: on the women’s side, Puerto Rico’s María González and Allanis Navas remain unbeaten with four golds in as many appearances in 2025, along with Canada’s Darby Dunn and Mikayla Law-Heese, and Mexico’s Susana Torres and Atenas Gutiérrez, who will look to capture the top spot in front of their home crowd.

On the men’s side, Mexico’s Jorman Osuna and José Cárdenas arrive as favorites after winning gold in Manzanillo. Also competing are Canada’s Robert Kemp and Cameron Chadwick, as well as Costa Rica’s Julián Araya and Jhostin Varela, silver and bronze medalists respectively.

Guadalajara is set for a weekend of top-level action, with the region’s best duos battling for crucial points ahead of the season finale and the road to Santo Domingo 2026.
