For the first time in Bulgaria, a snow volleyball tournament is to be held on Perelik peak in the Rhodopes. The matches, which will take place on 2 and 3 April, will depend on weather conditions which are impossible to forecast.

All competitors have medical certificates. The first snow volleyball champions of Bulgaria will be announced on Sunday night.
