Bermuda’s men’s and women’s beach volleyball teams have both won silver medals at the Eastern Caribbean Championships.

The women’s pair of Megan Hands and Hailey Moss made it through to the final day of competition and started their day by beating Grenada 2-0 (26-24, 21-15) in the semi-final to set up a gold-medal match with St Kitts and Nevis.

In a close match Hands and Moss gave it their all and narrowly missed taking the match to a third set, losing 21-14, 22-20 to their opponents.

The men's team of Benjamin Barnett and Sean Tucker faced Dominica in the semi-final and the match proved a titanic struggle, with Bermuda winning an epic first set 32-30 before sealing victory 21-16 in the second.

Despite that marathon encounter, Barnett and Tucker performed with great credit against St Lucia and gave hope of bringing home a gold medal by taking the first set 21-14.

However, the fatigue of the semi-final may have then started taking a toll as their opponents won the final two sets 21-15, 15-8 to leave Bermuda with the silver medal.

“The Bermuda Volleyball Association is ecstatic to celebrate an historic achievement at the 2025 ECVA Senior Beach Championships, where both our senior national teams secured silver medals,” BVA co-president Brandon Sousa said.

“These are the first medals ever won by Bermuda's senior beach teams at this level, marking a monumental step forward for the sport on our island. We wish to congratulate the athletes, coaches, and support staff and eagerly anticipate continued success for Bermuda beach volleyball throughout the year.”
