Anders Mol and Christian Sorum are the dominant pairing in men’s beach volleyball, but as the Olympic champions set off in pursuit of a fifth consecutive European title, it’s their family and friends that look best placed to trip them up. Anders' brother, Hendrik, and cousin and former playing partner, Mathias Berntsen, have been drawn into the same pool, and having always been overshadowed by their kin, things promise to get very tasty if they’re forced to face off. Here’s how to watch a 2022 European Beach Volleyball Championships live stream wherever you are right now.

Switzerland’s Nina Betschart and Tanja Hüberli are the reigning champions in the women’s tournament, which is packed with winners from the recent past. Betschart and Hüberli’s compatriots Joana Heidrich and Anouk Vergé-Dépré captured gold two years ago, while Latvia’s 2018 champions Tīna Graudiņa and Anastasija Kravčenoka are also in contention.

The locals will be getting behind Svenja Müller and Cinja Tillmann, who won bronze in Rome in June, as well as Kira Walkenhorst and Louisa Lippmann. Walkenhorst won gold for Germany in Rio, the home of beach volleyball, six years ago, and officially retired from the sport in 2019, but she’s been granted a wildcard for Munich 2022.

A prospective battle of the Mol brothers isn’t the only family affair on the cards. Italian sisters Viktoria and Reka Orsi Toth share a pool with Viktoria’s former playing partner Marta Menegatti and her new teammate Valentina Gottardi. Follow our guide as we explain all the ways to get a 2022 European Beach Volleyball Championships live stream wherever you are.
