The 'Andrés Fuentes' volleyball tournament will bring together 400 players in Marbella this weekend.

The 'Andrés Fuentes' volleyball tournament will celebrate its 23rd edition this Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th, gathering around 400 players on the indoor court of the Serrano Lima pavilion and the outdoor one, named Rubén Guerrero. The councilor for the area, Lisandro Vieytes, presented the initiative alongside the coach of Costa del Voley, Quino Sanjorge, and noted that "it is a memorial that has a lot of tradition within the circuit and is held in September, a month in which sports activities resume by the various teams," while highlighting the importance of "one of the most populous clubs in the city, which also has a senior category that represents us at the national level."

The councilor emphasized that "40 teams from all over Andalusia will participate in a very sporty weekend, which also coincides with the Half Marathon, and for this event, we will have the collaboration of Fuerte Nagüeles for hosting the visitors, because the idea is that these be days of coexistence where attendees can also enjoy the city's offerings."

He also specified that "it will take place simultaneously on both courts and there will be a total of eleven categories, from under-12s to seniors, both male and female" and stated that "from the department, we are delighted to be able to collaborate with Costa del Voley, just as we do with other sports entities, and in this case through the provision of facilities to develop the tournament."

Sanjorge, for his part, thanked the institutional support and explained that "we start the season on September 1st and we are very happy because we are going to celebrate a tournament that we are very excited about and that brings together clubs from the entire autonomous community" and remembered that "the club continues to have the three youth competition lines, the three cadet lines, the junior ones, and all the federated teams, and we also have the senior women's team, which is very important, competing in the Second Andalusian League, plus the Superliga 2 team."
