History of the Balkan Volleyball Association
The
Balkan Volleyball Association was founded in 1998, in Orestiada
(Greece), but due to the
challenging political situation in the Balkans, it had to temporarily
suspend its activities. Under the initiative of the Greek Volleyball
Federation and its President, Mr. Thanasis Beligratis, the member
federations of the BVA (Greece, Serbia & Montenegro, Bulgaria, Romania,
Turkey, Albania, F.Y.R. of Macedonia and Moldavia) unanimously voted the
re-establishment of the Association, during the extraordinary General
Assembly in Athens in 2000.
The
purpose of this Regional Association is to further develop Volleyball
and Beach Volleyball in the Balkan Region, in all categories, Men and
Women, by organizing training camps and official competitions, as well
as to create a strong friendship and good cooperation between the member
federations, thus providing a good foundation for the establishment of
peace in the Balkan Region. Therefore, the BVA organizes every summer
Balkan Volleyball Championships for Junior and Youth, Men and Women, as
well as Beach Volleyball Championships for Senior, Junior and Youth, Men
and Women. The competitions are rotated between all Balkan countries.
From 2008 a new competition for clubs, the BVA Cup, was added to the BVA
Calendar.
The first BVA headquarters were located in Athens (Greece) and, since
2004, in Thessaloniki.
