The Place
COS Spała is a premier Olympic preparation center, welcoming national teams and beach volleyball players of all levels.
We will train in Poland’s most modern indoor beach volleyball facility, featuring high ceilings and 3–4 full-size courts. The hall is fully heated to a comfortable 23–26°C, so there is no need for thermal layers.
Surrounded by beautiful forests, the venue offers a perfect setting to relax between sessions. You can unwind by the swimming pool, take a stroll through the woods, grab some local ice cream, or even go autumn mushroom picking!
The Plan
Full Camp (Friday – Sunday): You need to be available in Spała at least from Friday 16:00 until Sunday 12:00.
Short Camp (Saturday – Sunday): You will need to arrive on Saturday morning for your scheduled training slot.
Group allocations and exact training times will be published approximately 1 week before the camp starts.
Join from Abroad
We have already hosted beach volleyball enthusiasts from many different countries, so you’ll be in great company! You can easily combine a city break in Warsaw with our weekend camp. Please note that all training sessions are held in English.

Carpooling & Shared Rides: Spała is located roughly 120 km from Warsaw. Don’t worry if you don’t have a car – many of our Polish participants drive from Warsaw and have free seats! You can easily coordinate a shared ride with other players through our community.
