About EVP:
The EVP Tour's primary aim is to support beach volleyball events that result in sponsors, participants, spectators and host communities feeling like "That was worth the trip, I wish the EVP Tour can make that happen here every weekend! We feel like a part of the game". Additional results include media exposure for the tour that increases participation at all levels. The EVP Tour is dedicated to providing its customer with more value than they have been promised. On a local level, the EVP Staff and its Network members' aim is to develop new job opportunities and sponsor assets for the athletes in their region. The goal is to channel the resources to support the top team so they can compete and earn a living on the national EVP Tour event.
