With 18 teams participating, another IFA World Tour tournament, and at the same time the national championship, took place in Guatambu (ARG) on 23 and 24 September.
Women’s competition
After the preliminary rounds, the teams from Rosario and Eldorado B as well as Punta Chica A and Guatambu A met in the semifinals. The ladies from Club Rosario lived up to their role as favourites and entered the final with a clear 2:0. The second semi-final between Punta Chica A and Guatambu A was less clear-cut. In the third and decisive set, the Punta Chica A team finally prevailed. In the final, however, they were beaten 3:0 by the ladies from Rosario. The tournament victory and 250 points for the IFA World Tour went to Rosario. The home team from Guatambu finished in third place after beating Eldorado B.
Men’s competition
From the two very exciting semi-finals between Rosario and Eldorado B and Punta Chica A and Sol de Funes, the teams from Rosario and Punta Chica A emerged victorious. Rosario took the lead from the start in the final and decided the match against the young team Punta Chica A in their favour with a score of 3:0. The two teams from Club Rosario thus not only took the gold medal in both competitions but also qualified for next year’s Pan American Championship with the victory. Bronze in the men’s competition went to the Sol de Funes team after their match against Eldorado B.
