THE RAF Weymouth Beach Volleyball Classic will return in two weeks after missing a year due to a clash with the Olympics.

One of the star attractions will no doubt be Shauna Mullin who will be playing alongside fellow Olympian Lynn Beattie.

Mullin partnered Zara Dampney at London 2012 while Beattie was captain of the women’s indoor squad.

There will also be plenty of interest in the men’s event. Not only has it attracted entries from the Israeli national team but the men’s GB squad will also be training throughout the week on the permanent courts by The Boat cafe.

The Classic is due to take place from August 1-4 and it is already heavily oversubscribed in the women’s event and almost full in the men’s section, with another week to go before the closing date.
