Navarino Challenge, which has as its main goal the promotion of sports and fair play, will be full of activities covering the requirements of all ages. At the same time, the secondary objective is to extend the tourist season.  The sports tourism event with the most Olympic ambassadors returns once again in Messinia with 12 Olympic sports! Along with running, swimming, tae kwon do, this year we will live the experience of another major Olympic sport such as beach volley, with the presence of one of the biggest and most historic athletes of Greek as well as international volleyball, Michalis Triantafyllidis. This is the addition of a tournament called the King & Queen Beach Volley Tournament by Triantafyllidis Beach Arena and the beach volley courses by Triantafyllidis Beach Arena.

The former Greek national volleyball player holds the record of participations in the Greek National Team (top-ranked 1st in the European Cup at 1987) and holds the most titles of an athlete in volleyball and beach volley in Greece. Michalis Triantafyllidis said: “I find it very important that beach volley is included this year in the program of an already very successful event, such as the Navarino Challenge. For my part, I think we will have the best possible organization at both the beach volleyball tournament “King & Queen Beach Volley” and the beach volleyball training courses. I hope it will become a part of the successful organization”.
