Suriname to Host NORCECA Beach Volleyball

Tour for the First Time

PARAMARIBO, Suriname, July 23, 2025. – Suriname will make history this week as it hosts the NORCECA Beach Volleyball Tour for the first time ever, welcoming teams from across the region to the fifth leg of the 2025 season. The competition will take place July 25-27 in Telesur Cul Complex in Paramaribo.

A total of sixteen teams have pre-registered to compete, with final participation confirmed during the preliminary inquiry scheduled for July 24.

In the women’s field, looking to break through are Mexico’s Susana Torres and Atenas Gutiérrez, who have finished second place at all four stages so far.

In the men’s competition, Mexico’s Inés Vargas Lares and Carlos Andrés Ayala also enter the tournament with strong credentials, having won gold in Puerto Cortés and bronze in Juan Dolio.

The event also marks the 2025 debut of the American duo Taylor and Trevor Crabb, who bring a wealth of international experience. Taylor Crabb last competed on the NORCECA Tour in 2022, when he paired with Taylor Sander in the qualification tournament for the FIVB World Championship.

The 2025 NORCECA Beach Volleyball Tour awards valuable points toward both the continental and world rankings. Importantly, it also marks the start of the qualification process for the 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games, set to take place in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic—adding an extra layer of motivation for all participating teams.
