England's U18 Beach Euros squad named

The men have qualified qualify straight to main draw after winning bronze at the NEVZA Youth Beach Championships in July and will be competing between 17th September and 20th September 2026. 

Although they just missed out on a direct NEVZA spot, they secured their place via country ranking points and will go straight to the round-robin group stage. 

The group stage is formed of eight pools of four teams, with 24 teams progressing to a single elimination bracket.

The women face a tough second-round qualifier on 16th September to see if they secure one of eight remaining places in the main draw. 

They will need to be in top form to head off teams from Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bulgaria, Croatia, Denmark, Moldova, Portugal, Russia, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Türkiye. 

"Congratulations to the athletes chosen to represent England at the U18 European Beach Volleyball Championships," said Performance Director, Kirk Pitman. 

"NEVZA was the first step, Europe is the next. Our aim is simple: compete with Europe’s best, learn from the top level and continue raising the standard for English beach volleyball."
