It is now official: the Klagenfurt beach rugby tournament, scheduled for the weekend of June 26–27, 2026, on the shores of Lake Wörthersee, has been cancelled.

However, in an official statement shared on social media, the organizers confirmed the cancellation: Beach Trophy 2026 will not take place. “Unfortunately, we have to cancel the 2026 edition. It was not an easy decision,” the statement reads, highlighting that the choice was made with regret after evaluating several organizational factors.

Beach Rugby Kortrijk 2026: Tournament Cancelled, Return Planned for 2027

By BRC_admin — 5 months ago

The organizing committee of the Beach Rugby Kortrijk Courtrai Belgium officially announces the cancellation of the edition scheduled for May 16–17.

This decision, taken in the last few hours, comes with great regret but with a strong sense of responsibility toward players, staff, partners, and spectators. The cancellation is due to a series of organizational and logistical challenges that would not have allowed the event to meet the high standards of quality and safety that have always defined the tournament.

Over the years, the tournament has become a key event in the international beach rugby calendar, attracting teams and fans from across Europe and standing out as a celebration of sport, community, and entertainment. In order to preserve this spirit, the organizers have decided to cancel the event rather than deliver a reduced version.

Evaluations for the future are already underway, with the aim of bringing the tournament back to the international calendar in 2027, with an even stronger and more engaging format.

The organizing committee would like to thank all clubs, athletes, and partners who had already confirmed their participation, as well as the local authorities for their continued support.

The event is therefore postponed, with the hope of returning to the sand soon with even greater enthusiasm.
