King of the Court will return to Utrecht, Netherlands for the third time on August 25-28 2021 to host some of the best international beach volleyball players from around the world with forty teams battling to be crowned the Queens and Kings of Utrecht.
The prize money for the competition will be doubled compared to last year’s edition, totaling EUR 100,000. The tournament will again be held in a COVID-19-proof stadium. A minimum of 500 spectators per session will again be able to safely enjoy and experience an international beach volleyball event with a unique format.
The King of the Court event format made its international competition debut in Utrecht where Sportworx, in collaboration with the FIVB, has since continued to develop the concept into an entertaining, highly competitive and energetic beach volleyball format.
Last year, the event was a big hit with beach volleyball fans with visitors rating the event 8.9 out of a possible 10. The event was broadcast live in 24 countries and was televised in over 135 countries. In addition, live streams of the event have been viewed over one million times.
The remarkable success of the event on both an entertainment and sports level have enabled Sportworx to join forces with a new title sponsor for the event who will be announced at a later stage.
A total of twenty teams per gender will play for the titles of Queens and Kings of the Court, dethroning Marco Krattiger and Florian Breer in the men’s tournament and Brazilians Agatha and Duda in the women’s draw. The tournament will be held in the week after King of the Court makes its German debut in Hamburg on 19-22 August.
