Beach Volleyball: International Competition by the Shore

Beach volleyball will bring speed, skill and teamwork to Güibia Beach on Santo Domingo’s Malecón as police athletes compete at the 4th USIP World Police Games.

The tournament will feature separate men’s and women’s competitions, with teams competing for gold, silver and bronze medals. Each participating country may enter up to eight athletes across two men’s teams and two women’s teams, with two players per team.

Competition will begin with a round-robin group stage, followed by knockout rounds leading to the semifinals and medal matches. The format will test each pair’s coordination, tactical awareness and resilience on the sand.

Open to eligible police officers and public police academy students aged 18 and above from USIP member organisations, the tournament will follow USIP and international volleyball regulations. Eligibility checks and anti-doping controls will support fair competition throughout the event.

Set against Santo Domingo’s coastal backdrop, beach volleyball will offer athletes an opportunity to pursue sporting success while strengthening friendships across the international police sports community.
