  • I wonder if this tournament will be shown on TV. It seems we'll have to follow this tournament through the live scores of the FIVB webpage.

    Since it is a WCH, there HAS to be TV coverage, it is a requirement. How many countries will opt to show it I don't know though... Maybe China with CCTV-5 or Bandsports?

    Very bad news from Germany...our OH Sarah Petrausch broke both wrists ( :!: ) in a friendly match in Italy. She fell over the libero during a backrow attack.

  • Belgium just won the European Youth Olympic Festival (EYOF)! :trophy:


    They played Serbia twice: once in the preliminary round (BEL-SER: 0-3) :evil: and once in the final (BEL-SER: 3-0). :twisted:
