Fly the flag! It’s Canadian beach volleyball history! For the first time Canada will play in the gold medal match at the Olympic Games! Mel and Brandie vs Brazilians Duda/Ana Patricia, Friday at 4:30 pm EST! Join us on CBC Olympics Volleyball Canada Beach Volleyball World Team Canada

Guess who that is in the white dress with John Child and I at a beach tourney in the mid 90’s! Full circle moment for me, as Melissa (who is playing for Olympic gold in Paris 2024) used to come to our tourneys and some practices with her Dad, Hernán, who was our coach!

Fun to talk beach vball with you two!

The Canadians put up a good fight against the Brazilians! It got a little spicy though! 🔥 🌶️ But in the end, it remained a non-contact sport, and Brazil’s Duda/Ana Patricia take the gold 2-1, (26-24, 12-21, 15-10)! CBC Olympics Paris 2024 Volleyball Canada Claire Hanna

Look for the silver lining! Gold goes to 🇧🇷, but Melissa/Brandie bring home a well-earned silver medal from Paris. This is the best result any 🇨🇦 beach volleyball team (or indoor volleyball team for what matter) has ever accomplished at the Olympics! Congratulations ladies!

Absolutely! Thanks for feeding their dream Sobeys!

HOW SWEDE IT IS! 22 year olds, Ahman/Hellvig are the youngest team ever to win beach volleyball Olympic GOLD! They were simply SPECTACULAR in the final, dismantling the Germans 2-0 (21-10, 21-13)!

Beach vball getting its “every four years” spotlight! In 90’s after our medal in Atlanta, Labatt Breweries of Canada stepped up with the Labatt Pro Beach Tour! Would be nice to see Brandie/Mel play on home sand. Corporate Canada.. we have a beautiful sport, and amazing athletes! Who’s in?

Win or lose, rise or fall. Team Canada had us glued to our screens at the Paris Olympics 🇨🇦
