BERGSTRAND is a beach volleyball club founded in 2022 with the goal of creating professional training structures in Austria – with a particular focus on women's beach volleyball.

The club was founded by Michi and Martina, two active Pro Tour players who know the challenges of beach volleyball from their own experience. Their desire for better training opportunities led to the creation of a club that today brings together players of a wide range of skill levels.

Currently, around 130 amateur players, 100 beginners, 50 junior athletes, and 70 professional players train with BERGSTRAND. A particular focus is placed on female leadership and supporting female players. This makes BERGSTRAND one of Austria's leading beach volleyball clubs in the women's sector.
