After a groundbreaking preliminary phase, featuring a record number of clubs and National Federations across Europe, the eight clubs (four men`s and four women`s) that will compete for continental supremacy at the CEV Beach Volley European Cup Final in early November in Heraklion, Greece, have now been determined.
Men`s Competition
In the men`s category, the qualifying groups saw C.S.U. Resita (Romania), Montpellier Beach Volley (France), Aloha Beachvolleyball Club (Austria), BC Strahov (Czechia), ZVH Zevenhuizen (Netherlands), and Sunrise Beach Sports Academy (Ukraine) secure their spots. They will be joined by the host nation`s representative, 4 Sports Club Athens, and Ré Beach Club (France), who advanced as the highest-ranked runner-up from the preliminary phase.
Women`s Competition
For the women`s competition, Beograd Beach Volley (Serbia), KBC Oxyklinika (Lithuania), CV Majadahonda (Spain), Ré Beach Club (France), Edra Tata (Hungary), and Sunrise Beach Sports Academy (Ukraine) emerged as group leaders. The final spots in the eight-team field are filled by 4 Sports Club Athens (Greece) and BVC Ludus Ljubljana (Slovenia), with the latter securing their place as the highest-ranked second-placed team across all pools.

The upcoming Final in Heraklion will feature clubs from an impressive 12 National Federations, offering a unique platform for teams to showcase their talent, compete internationally, and demonstrate their collective strength – as the competition format emphasizes team performance over individual brilliance.

Heraklion provides an ideal setting for this grand finale, where players and coaches are eagerly preparing to conclude the 2025 Beach Volleyball season in memorable fashion.
