The AIR Volley Cup Took Over Tel Aviv

The AIR Volley Cup brought together an incredible lineup of teams from Cyera, Wiz, Vega, Island, Zafran, Enigma, KOI, Daylight, Cato Networks, ZyG, and Nebius.
‍Twelve teams, and plenty of competitive spirit. Everyone came prepared, supporters showed up ready to cheer, and it became pretty clear that nobody was planning to leave without putting up a fight for that trophy.
So first of all, a ^{huge thank you} to every team that stepped onto the sand and made our first tournament one to remember!

After an afternoon of impressive serves, diving saves, and some seriously close matches, three teams made it onto the podium.

So, without further ado…

The Winners

1st Place: ^Island - The undisputed champions of the first AIR Volley Cup 2026.

2nd Place: ^AIR - Hosting doesn’t guarantee a home-court advantage.

3rd Place: ^Cyera - A well-earned spot on the podium.

More Than Just Volleyball

‍While the competition was happening on the court, there was plenty going on off it, too.
Music, food, drinks, friends, colleagues, and a beach full of people cheering each other on (and occasionally cheering against each other).
For us, that was the best part. Bringing people from across Israel’s tech community together, away from the usual meetings and conferences, for an afternoon of good competition and even better company. And judging by how seriously everyone took the tournament, we have a feeling next year’s competition might be even tougher.

‍

To all 12 teams, the supporters, and everyone who helped bring the first AIR Volley Cup to life - thank you for making it such a great day.
And to Island, enjoy that trophy. We’re already working on our comeback.

Until Next Year!
