Former Kingaroy resident – and Tokyo 2020 Olympic silver medallist! – Taliqua Clancy will be in action at the Beach Volleyball World Championships in Adelaide this week.

Clancy will be taking to the court with new partner Jana Milutinovic in their first game on Friday evening.

Milutinovic paired with Clancy earlier this year after Clancy’s regular on-court partner, Mariafe Artacho del Solar, announced she was pregnant.

The Aussie pair will be playing Chinese duo Xu Yan (Yan X) and Xinyi Xia (X. Y. Xia) in centre court.

The world championships will be played from November 14-23, with 96 teams from 40 countries taking part.

More than 4000 tonnes of sand has been brought in to create the volleyball courts in central Adelaide.

All the championships games will be streamed online (subscription required).
