More than 200 hours of TV pictures were sent around the world. Numerous side events created the social highlight of the season in the Woerthersee region. From 2002 the yearly beach volleyball tournament in Carinthia is not only a public and media attraction, but is the favorite tournament of the world's best players.
I was involved in the event from 1999 to 2004, acting as FIVB Technical Supervisor (1999, 2000 and 2002) or the tournament's Sport Director (2001, 2003 and 2004).

The players were very surprised since a Beach Volleyball tournament on international level had never taken place in the middle of a city before. But after five days of outstanding Beach Volleyball everybody agreed that the Germany premier on the Schlossplatz was a great success.

After a one year break, the Grand Slam returned to Berlin, but to a different venue as usual. The worlds best Beach Volleyball players met at the Washington Platz in front of the Berlin Main Station.
