European Beach Volleyball Championships

The European Beach Volleyball Championship (or the Nestea European Championship Final) is a unisex sport competition for national teams in the sport of beach volleyball. The championship is held annually by the CEV (the European volleyball federation). Initially, in 1993, just men competed, but the following year a separate championship was held for women. The events have been combined since 1995.
