VolleyRuller96 264 Posted October 19, 2019 Author #51 Share Posted October 19, 2019 withdrew from hosting the 2020 Nation's League finals, because the date ( 1-5 july) would interfere with their Independence Day Come on, I understand patriotism, but withdrawing less than a year before the competition starts is just so low Also in related news, another great idea came from the brilliant minds of FIVB, who demands a fee of ONE MILLION DOLLAR from the federations that want to replace the U.S as host Something tells me they will push the hosting to Poland again after they realize how ridiculous their demands are and that noone is going to apply for hosting rights once agaIn Gianlu33 and thiago_simoes 1 1 My favourite Volleyball position: LIBERO.

VolleyRuller96 264 Posted October 26, 2019 Author #53 Share Posted October 26, 2019 The German Supercup match between SCC Berlin and VFB Friedrichshfen was played on specially installed LED-panel floor, covered in invisible anti-slip glass. This type of floor was tested earlier in some minor sports, like squash, however this is the first time it was tested during a important game of any Olympic team sport, so it was a bit of a historical event. thepharoah, Gianlu33 and De_Gambassi 2 1 My favourite Volleyball position: LIBERO.

All for this. Put it in the Olympics please. I would like to see them add “line-out” technology though. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

heywoodu 13,500 Posted October 26, 2019 #56 Share Posted October 26, 2019 What's the advantage if they're not using sensors for whether or not a ball is out?

VolleyRuller96 264 Posted November 20, 2019 Author #59 Share Posted November 20, 2019 We will observe a historic night today since Benfica Lisboa and Mladost Zagreb will clash in the 1st leg of the 3-rd round men's Champions League qualification fixture. This is the final qualifying stage, the winner will get to play pool C (with Sir Collusi Sicoma Perugia, Verva Orlen Warszawa and Tours VB). It is important to note that neither Portugal or Croatia had qualified a team to the group stage of the Champions League since this tournament replaced European Cup Winner's Cup in 2000. (Also I'm now browsing results of older competitions and am starting to regret I wasn't around to watch the ECWC matches in the 90's, it seemed too have a much better format and more teams, not to mention a team from almost made it to the group stage in 1997 ) My favourite Volleyball position: LIBERO.
