SEVEN MILE BEACH, Cayman Islands, June 19, 2025 – Nkoya Williams-Bailey and Aaron Taylor clinched the men’s gold medal at the inaugural CAZOVA U21 Beach Volleyball Championship held at Seven Mile Beach in the Cayman Islands. They pulled off a gritty comeback in the final against Cayman’s Stephen Watson and Dylan Lynee—dropping the first set but rallying to win the second, and ultimately taking the match 2-1 (19-21, 21-13, 15-0) after an injury forced their opponents to withdraw.

Their victory not only earned them the top podium spot but also secured qualification for the NORCECA U21 World Championship Qualifier in Juan Dolio, Dominican Republic. A huge step forward for youth beach volleyball in Barbados!
