The 2011 FIVB Beach Volleyball Swatch World Tour calendar is highlighted by the 2011 FIVB World Championships, six Grand Slam events and an Olympic test event as the international Beach Volleyball schedule starts in April and concludes in November. · The international Beach Volleyball circuit will visit 18 sites in 16 countries over an eight-month period. · With the 2011 calendar featuring 16 women’s and 14 men’s events within the African, Asian, European,

North American and South American confederations, the FIVB Swatch World Tour will offer US$7.64 million in prize money.

· Twelve of the tournaments will be combined men’s and women’s events, including all six Grand Slam stops and the world championships.

· The US$3.6 million FIVB Swatch World Tour Grand Slam series will also return to Austria (Klagenfurt), Norway (Stavanger), Poland (Stare Jablonki), Russia (Moscow) and Switzerland (Gstaad).

· Klagenfurt, Gstaad and Stavanger have each staged 10 or more FIVB-sanctioned Beach Volleyball events. All three sites have hosted the FIVB Swatch World Championships with Klagenfurt in 2001, Gstaad in 2007 and Stavanger in 2009.

· The opening event on the 2011 FIVB Swatch World Tour calendar was a double gender event in Brasília April 17-23 as the Brazilian capital celebrated its 51st anniversary on the fifth day of competition. During the April 21 Brasília celebration, crowds approaching 1-million attended various holiday activities around the Swatch event.
