THE PROGRAMME

What to expect

TRAIN · WORK · EXPLORE

A beach volleyball workation in Portugal.

Two beach volleyball sessions shape each day: the first begins early, and the second finishes by mid-afternoon. The rhythm is designed to leave room around the training for remote work, beach time and discovering Lisbon and Costa da Caparica.

01

Training holiday

Combine a demanding camp with time to relax by the Atlantic.

02

Remote-work friendly

Organise your professional commitments around the training programme, according to your own schedule.

03

Make Portugal part of the experience

Enjoy the beach, explore Lisbon and Costa da Caparica, or book a surf lesson with one of the local schools.

Surf lessons, sightseeing and any other activities or experiences outside the camp are not included in the price and must be arranged independently by each participant.

EXPERIENCE AT EVERY LEVEL

Train in the company of people who live the game.

Olympic experience, international coaching and professional athletes come together in one carefully created training environment.

03

A global community

Meet players from different countries, levels and backgrounds. Come with a partner, with friends or independently — and leave with new connections, training partners and a wider beach volleyball network.
