Celebrating Technion's cornerstone centennial, international teams competed for the first time in Israel at a Beach Volleyball Tournament. The tennis courts were transformed for the 4-day April competition when 26 trucks dumped 650 tons of sand to create the venue for this sport, which entered the Olympic Games in 1996. The tournament was recognized by the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB), and some of the leading players in the world participated.
