The sessions in itself are a great achievement as the interest in beach volleyball on the island continues to grow. This tournament is not just limited to this; it also works as an encouragement to those who are looking to pursue beach volleyball as a sport.

As the nation is moving ahead with the policy of promoting sports on the island, it is likely that the government of Grenada will keep pushing it in order to produce a greater number of sportsmen from the island.
