GOA Volleyball Federation.

GOA Volleyball Federation. Volleyball Volleyball is a team sport in which two teams of six players are separated by a net. The complete rules are extensive.

Each team tries to score points by grounding a ball on the other team's court under organized rules. But simply, play proceeds as follows: A player on one of the teams begins a 'rally' by serving the ball (tossing or releasing it and then hitting it with a hand or arm), from behind the back boundary line of the court, over the net, and into the receiving team's court. The receiving team must not l

et the ball be grounded within their court. They may touch the ball as many as three times. Typically, the first two touches are to set up for an attack, an attempt to direct the ball back over the net in such a way that the serving team is unable to prevent it from being grounded in their court. The rally continues, with each team allowed as many as three consecutive touches, until either (1): a team makes a kill, grounding the ball on the opponent's court and winning the rally; or (2): a team commits a fault and loses the rally. The team that wins the rally is awarded a point, and serves the ball to start the next rally. A few of the most common faults include:

causing the ball to touch the ground outside the opponents' court or without first passing over the net;
catching and throwing the ball;
double hit: two consecutive contacts with the ball made by the same player;
four consecutive contacts with the ball made by the same team. net foul: touching the net during play. The ball is usually played with the hands or arms, but players can legally strike or push (short contact) the ball with any part of the body. A number of consistent techniques have evolved in volleyball, including spiking and blocking (because these plays are made above the top of the net, the vertical jump is an athletic skill emphasized in the sport) as well as passing, setting, and specialized player positions and offensive and defensive structures.

A few more weeks from the Lusofonia Games and one would have thought that the training of the squads would have been up and running. Sadly with some sports that is not the case. In volleyball the residential camp which will include state and national players will be held only next year - from January 1 to 15. The games commence on January 18 and end on 29.

Santosh Bandodkar, the secretary of the Goa Volleyball association said this camp would be conducted by the national coach G E Sridhar at the new facility being built at the University.

This facility is expected to be completed towards the end of November. Currently around 18 boys and 16 girls are undergoing training every evening at the Campal ground in Panjim under the watchful eyes of Erisa Faleiro, Avelino Pereira and Conception Pereira.

With regard to the beach volleyball team Surya Sawant and Suresh Shirodkar are the coaches for the team. They have been part of a three month camp which started last year but was discontinued due to the rains. The absence of an indoor stadium for the sport in the state has not helped matters. This training session has also been marred by the boycott by senior Goan players who felt it was not worth their while considering that senior national players would be part of the team.

The secretary said this problem was being tackled and that in a week’s time players like Ram Dhawaskar and Vijay Kolwalkar would be part of the team. He said “We have to prepare the squad for these games and then the national games.

We are very clear in our focus for the next couple of years. The government is clear that the best squad has to be selected so that we win medals and we will follow that principle”.

The secretary of the Goa Olympic Association Gurudutta Bhakta said that all the associations will have to select the best squad. If that meant selecting 75% national players for the squad then that would be the option chosen. In football however since the majority of the players in the national squad were Goans, national players will only be selected in positions where the state players are considered weak.

Bandodkar said the association would talk to the players before any decision was taken. He said “When the final selection are being conducted, the players who will be dropped will realise the difference in class.

They will be part of the training camp so that they practice hard and learn new skills. We have to do well in the national games which will be held in Goa”. The pressure to ensure good results this time should be gauged against past results.

India (Goa) has not won any matches in volleyball and in the first edition in Macau came third amongst three team and was awarded the bronze medal.

In Portugal, the team came last in a field of five teams. The women’s team won a bronze last time in Portugal without winning a set because there were just two other teams contesting. Asked what his expectations were from these games he said he expected the men team to go for gold at least and the women to win some medal.

For starters spectators will hope the team will be able to win a few matches in the competition to avoid being awarded the wooden spoon yet again.

A few Things about Volleyball:
Volleyball refers to the game played between two teams of six active players each side, and separated by a high net. The aim of both the Volleyball teams are to score more and more points against the opponents. The team with more points wins the game. And they have to strike the ball with their hand and shot it over the high net. The games mostly inclusive of three different sets, the team who score 25 first points against opponents wins the set. History of Volleyball begins with its foundation in 1895, as one of the indoor sports. Volleyball sports is an Olympic game too. In 1924, volleyball sports makes its first appearance in Summer Olympics and in 1964, volleyball makes its first appearance in Olympic games. And till now volleyball is one of the major sports of Olympics.
There are lots and lots of organizations that are promoting volleyball sports all over the world with the help of media channels like ESPN, etc and they are playing good amount for this promotion to the media, reporters, survey persons, etc. Apart from this they also released Volleyball sport as a fantasy (Videogame) in their websites, so that people pay it and know about volleyball online games, volleyball sports rules and regulations, countries participating in volleyball sports, different places where volleyball games are played. Rules and Regulations of Volleyball games make volleyball differ from all other games and sports. Some rules and regulations of volleyball sports
Volleyball Serve:- Serving a volleyball should be served with underhand or overhand, served ball may be served over the net, and server should be alert that he/she serves the ball behind the end line.
Serving of volleyball should be rotated as per the win.

A player should not hit the ball twice, though he can block the ball, similarly the player should never attack or even block the serve of the opponent, he just bump it.
Games should be played with 25 points and winner team has to win the game with at least 02 points.
These are just a few guidelines of rules and regulation of Volleyball game. And , even these rules differ in Country to Country and volleyball championship to championship.
If we discuss the Volleyball sports in India, then we have to say that sports is played everywhere in India, whether rural areas or urban areas. In school level, college level, Volleyball is known as one of the famous sports of India. Though it’s a famous sport of India, but still we are not a part of the International Volleyball team yet. Even Volleyball sport is one of the great sources of recreation sports; in free time people will go for volleyball sport, for fun and leisure. This is the best recreation sport played especially near to beaches. There are lots of sports organizations in our Country who are working for the promotion of Volleyball sports, and there objective is to motivate and train the young generation or students by the professional coaches. Every year, they organize camps and volleyball tournaments at national level and check and improve the skills of the volleyball participants. Goa is one of the places where these sports are played lot for leisure purpose by the tourists or locals for spending time or for recreation. Volleyball sports is not much familiar as a profession here; people play this sport mostly for mind freshness and not for any monetary purpose. Though we lack professionals of Volley ball in our country but the Sports committee invites foreign coaches every year in their camps and national tournaments to make volleyball sports a profession for the upcoming generation, which shows there should be a promising future of Indian volleyball sports. An organization was founded in 1952 for promoting volleyball sports in Asian countries; this organization was named as Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC) though in 1962, its name changed to Asian Volleyball Federation (AVF). Japan is the leading country in making this organization. Asia Volleyball Championship is one of the major tournaments, which this organization organizes for promotion of Volleyball.
