In the world of sport, athletes’ careers and success often reflect the work and support they receive off the pitch. In Spain, two sports that have burst onto the scene in recent years are 3×3 Basketball and Beach Volleyball. This growth has not been a coincidence, but the result of a collective effort in which we are proud to have been able to contribute. As these sports become more entrenched in the Olympic landscape, it is important to acknowledge the collaboration and support they have received throughout their development. Madison and 3×3 Basketball: Pioneers in Spain A dynamic and fast version of traditional basketball, 3×3 Basketball has penetrated deep into the imagination of sports fans around the world. In Spain, Madison Sports Marketing has been a driving force behind its growth. Since its inception, Madison has been fortunate to work to organize and promote 3×3 basketball tournaments across the country. One of the most significant milestones has been Madison’s collaboration with the Spanish Basketball Federation (FEB). Hand in hand, we have launched and promoted the professional 3×3 circuit, creating a platform where players can compete and improve their skills. This circuit has not only raised the profile of the sport, but has also provided Spanish athletes with the opportunity to stand out on the international stage. The success of this effort is reflected in the recent performances of the women’s 3×3 Basketball team at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. The team, made up of Gracia Alonso de Armiño, Sandra Ygueravide, Juana Camilion and Vega Gimeno, won the silver medal, making history for Spanish sport. Madison’s Commitment to Beach Volley Beach volleyball is another sport that has seen significant growth in Spain, and we are very happy to have been able to contribute to it. For more than a decade, we at Madison Sports Marketing have worked to organize and promote events that have helped raise the profile of Beach Volley both nationally and internationally. We are proud to be part of this evolution and continue to support the development of this sport. One of the emblematic events is the Higuerón Resort Spanish Beach Volleyball Championship. Held annually at the Fuengirola hotel complex, this championship has reached its eleventh edition this August. The tournament not only attracts top domestic talent, but also serves as a platform for players who are competing in the Olympics, such as Daniela Alvarez and Tania Moreno on the women’s team, and Adrian Gavira and Pablo Herrera on the men’s team. The consistent and quality organization of tournaments such as the Higuerón Resort Spanish Championship has been crucial in providing athletes with the competitive experience necessary to shine on the Olympic stage. Inspiration and Future Madison’s role in these sports isn’t limited to visible successes on the court. We have worked to create opportunities and provide constant support, inspiring new talent. Athletes such as Lili Fernández and Paula Soria, although they did not advance on this occasion, have shown dedication and effort that serve as an example for all Olympic aspirants. At Madison, we are very proud to be able to contribute to the development of these sports. Our maxims are to support athletes and promote the growth of 3×3 Basketball and Beach Volleyball in Spain. As more athletes reach new levels of success, we’re proud to see how our efforts are reflected in their achievements. In short, we are very happy to have been part of the growth of the sports of 3×3 Basketball and Beach Volleyball in Spain. Our commitment and support have contributed to these sports continuing to gain recognition. It is a pride to see Spanish athletes shine on the Olympic stage and to know that we have been able to accompany them on their path to success.
