“We had pretty close matches, which surprised all of us on the judging panel. There were couples who played at a high level, and there were couples who didn’t seem to have trained very hard this season. Overall, both the men’s and women’s had more contested bouts than we expected. Good time, we are all satisfied and happy. Last year there was rain, now the wet weather has missed us. The atmosphere and organization were at a high level,” said Ognyan Andonov, chief judge of the tournament.
The competition was held under the auspices of the Bulgarian Volleyball Federation and was organized by Nu Boyana Film Studios and their executive director Yariv Lerner, with the partnership of Marina Dinevi Marina.
16 male and 12 female couples participated, and the total prize fund was BGN 10,000.
