Blacktower sponsored NORCECA beach volleyball tournament

Grand Cayman was the fifth location of a 14-stop tour, which headed to the Domincan Republic shortly after Cayman. The winners of the women’s title in this leg were Betsi Flint and Kelley Larsen of United States-A – it was a close victory over Karen Cope and Nathalia Alfaro of Costa Rica. Taylor and Trevor Crabb of United States-A claimed the men’s title, with Cameron Wheelan and Michel Plantinga coming second.

It was an excellent tournament – one of many great events in the Cayman Islands.

The key issue for British expats is obviously the UK referendum on 23rd June when the vote will be taken as to whether or not the UK will stay in the European Union.
