Construction Begins on EUR 2.2 Million Beach Volleyball Hall in Ogre, Latvia
Construction has officially commenced in Ogre, Latvia, for a modern indoor beach volleyball hall and sports center, with total investments reaching nearly EUR 2.2 million. The project is led by the volleyball club “Ķirzaka,” which secured EUR 1.1 million in financing from BluOr Bank, supported by a state guarantee from ALTUM, while the remaining funds come from private investment. Scheduled to open by the end of 2026, the 1,567 square meter facility will feature four indoor courts, a fitness area, and group training rooms. It is designed to meet international standards, becoming only the third such specialized infrastructure in Latvia. Located strategically near the city center and railway station, the hall aims to serve approximately 300 young athletes currently lacking winter training facilities, as well as adult players and visitors from neighboring municipalities. A cooperation memorandum with the Ogre Municipality ensures free training access for local children. This development addresses a significant gap in regional sports infrastructure, promoting year-round training and hosting capabilities for national-level competitions, thereby supporting the growing popularity of beach volleyball in Latvia.
