Beach Volleyball will be the center of attention at the Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games

 

TIJUANA, Mexico, January 13, 2015 .- Authorities of the Norceca Volleyball Confederation showed their confidence in the beach volleyball tournament that will take place at the Pan American Games of Toronto 2015.

 

Ed Drakich, from Canada, was present during the meetings of the Beach Volleyball Commission and showed some details about the preparation of the competition that will take place at the Chevrolet Beach Volleyball Center by the month of July.

 

The Pan American Village is 90 percent ready as it was exposed previously, and competing teams could arrive in starting July 8, according to Volleyball Canada’s Officer.

 

“This will be a new area in Toronto,” said Drakich. “It was built in an old destilery just four kilometers away from the competition venue and 30 minutes away from the airport.”

 

Drakich stated that there is no question about the beach volleyball tournament will capture the attention due to the interest of the televisión broadcasts. “Everybody will be watching us, we will be followed by the TV and media, we will be the  latest sport to conclude everyday,” He exposed.

 

The competing courts will be filled with “Hutchinson sand”, the same one used for the Olympic Games of London 2012 at the Horse Guards Parade zone.
