A week off since the Berlin Grand Slam but the FIVB World Tour is right back at it in Moscow! Although the FIVB took a break, that doesn't mean that our teams did! Sarah Pavan and Heather Bansley flew back to Canada to compete in the Canada Cup in Halifax, an event they won, while two Canadian teams, Maverick Hatch and Christian Redmann as well as Kristina Valjas and Jamie Broder, competed in a Coop Tour event in Olten, Switzerland. Hatch and Redmann came out on top, besting an Italian team in the finals, while the girls nabbed a fifth. This Grand Slam is a dual gender event, with Hatch/Redmann the only team needing to go through qualifying, which they did successfully
