Victory Smash: A Volleyball Tournament to Remember

Back in December, the beach at Breathless Cancún Soul Resort & Spa transformed into a high-energy battleground for the ‘Victory Smash Volleyball Tournament’ – a signature event hosted by Grupo Events in partnership with Uniglobe Specialty Travel Ltd. and their client, Victory Homes.

Seven teams. Up to 84 players. One incredible beachfront experience.

This was the third year Victory Homes brought their team to Cancún and their second time choosing a volleyball showdown as their activity of choice.

The return speaks volumes—about the power of team-building through sport and about the trust clients place in Grupo Events to deliver standout experiences year after year.

A Tournament That Went All Out

This wasn’t your average beach day. Grupo Events curated an event for Victory Homes and Uniglobe that went above and beyond, pulling out all the stops to create something memorable for every participant, whether they were diving in the sand for the winning spike, or cheering from the sidelines.

Highlights included:

On-site ice baths for instant refreshment and recovery
Massage tables offering quick tune-ups between matches
A live DJ spinning beachy, upbeat tracks to keep the energy sky-high
A premium setup with bespoke signage, and a giant volleyball as a tournament centrepiece, that turned the beach into an event-ready venue

Add in the salty breeze, the turquoise waves, and the infectious team spirit, and you’ve got the recipe for a tournament that felt more like a private festival than a corporate retreat. (Who needs ‘Coachella’!?)

Big Energy, Stronger Teams

Beyond the spikes and serves, the tournament delivered what matters most in team-building: collaboration, communication, and community. Colleagues bonded over shared victories, surprise upsets, and sun-soaked downtime between matches.

Some of the players were more athletic, while others were casual players, and some hadn’t touched a volleyball before in their life!

But the tournament offered something for everyone – a perfect blend of friendly competition and pure fun.

Grupo Events specializes in designing activities that unite teams, boost morale, and leave everyone feeling energized. Victory Smash 2024 was no exception.

A Third Year of Team Spirit and Fun: Why Victory Keeps Coming Back

When companies like Victory Homes invest in their team’s growth and connection, they see results not just on the sand – but back in the workplace.

Returning clients like these are the evidence of the success that companies have by using a service such as Group Events to plan their company retreat. The commitment of these companies to create such a memorable experience, away from the office, and instead on a Caribbean beach, reflects the value they place on their people.

And it doesn’t hurt that Cancún offers one of the most beautiful backdrops in the world for a little work-hard, play-hard balance.
