The Cuban Volleyball Tournament took place at the November 19th Sports Facility on Pinar del Rio.
The event took place as an official meeting of the best of the Senior Volleyball players on 20-25 January. This time the tournament was quite different as the Ecoflag was flying in the center high seats, calling the attention of spectators, athletes and trainers.

GSA Team Captain Lic. Fernando Emilio Valladares Fuente seized the chance to talk about the need of preserving fair play and the sustainable management of sports in the territory.
This event is carried out yearly. 14 teams participate each time. They are played in 3 provinces (The western: Pinar del Rio, the Central: Villa Clara, and the Eastern: Santiago de Cuba). This tournament was sponsored by the Cuban Federation of Volleyball.

In the photo appears Lic. Ariel Sainz Rodriguez, the Technical Director of the Federation and our Cuba GSA Captain as a symbol of compromise between the practice of sports and the environmentfs care.

The 4th annual Burwood Beach Volleyball Tournament took place on October 20th. The event is organized by the Southern Trelawny Environmental Agency. 18 teams from across Jamaica competed in 3 separate categories; men's professional, women's professional, and amateur.
Proceeds from tournaments have provided for the construction of garbage containers in an effort to keep this public beach clean. Traditionally, the event is coupled with a beach cleanup where students from local high schools come for a day to rid the beach of trash and debris.
This year a newcomer to the tournament, All Out (Westmoreland), took the championship beating Garden Boys (Ocho Rios), as the sun set on BBVT '07.
