Hollas and Remmelg start the season in Mexico

Estonian beach volleyball duo Heleene Hollas and Liisa Remmelg are kicking off their season at a Challenge-level tournament in Tlaxcala, Mexico, after their initial plans to open in India were disrupted by travel issues.

Heleene Hollas and Liisa Remmelg, Estonia's top beach volleyball team, are set to begin their competition season in Tlaxcala, Mexico, participating in a Challenge-level tournament starting this Thursday, March 19. Originally, the duo aimed to start their season in India earlier this month; however, due to circumstances related to the Middle East, they were unable to fly there, marking their first competition on international sand in Mexico.

Remmelg expressed their eagerness to compete, acknowledging both the excitement and the typical pressures of early season matches. She highlighted the long and exhausting journey to Mexico, but reassured that they have successfully arrived and are ready to play. They are keen on easing into the tournament as they are aware that their initial games often come with challenges as they strive to find their rhythm on the court.

The conditions in Tlaxcala are favorable, with beautiful weather and well-maintained courts, and the local audience is enthusiastic to support them. Both athletes are committed to delivering their best as they embark on this new season, indicating that despite the rocky start, they are determined to make the most of their time in Mexico and achieve a strong performance as they settle back into competition.
