    1500 S. Anaheim Blvd., Su. 110, Anaheim, CA 92805 Ph: 714-917-3602 501c3 ID: 81-3695316 Email: [email protected] Web: socalindoorvolleyballhof.com 2019 SO CAL INDOOR VOLLEYBALL HOF FINALISTS GO FROM 1940S TO 2000S AND COVER USA OLYMPIC TEAMS FROM 1964-2016 The Southern California Indoor Volleyball Hall of Fame (SCIVBHOF) has announced its final group of 27 nominees for 15 induction spots for the May 5, 2019 third annual event at the Highway 39 Event Center in Anaheim. The 27 finalists consist of players and coaches that range from the 1940s to the 2000s. Numerous finalists have already been inducted into the International Volleyball Hall of Fame and others have been inducted into the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Hall of Fame. Almost all nominees have won NCAA, AIAW or USVBA National Championships and over two-thirds have competed or coached in at least one Olympic Games. Of the 27 selected, the leading colleges for the finalists are UCLA with eight having either played or coached there and USC in second with six having either played or coached there. Stanford, San Diego State, Long Beach State and Pepperdine have 3 that have either played or coached there. “The SCIVBHOF committee had the unique job of reviewing nearly 100 nominees to reach the 27 finalists and I know it be a challenging process to reach the 15 hall of fame inductees,” said Michael Sondheimer, SCIVBHOF Executive Director. “Anyone associated with USA and Southern California indoor volleyball should be proud of the first two years of accomplishments for the SCIVBHOF in recognizing the legends of the sport and in efforts to grow the future of the indoor sport through making non-profit youth volleyball donations.” The SCIVBHOF is located at American Sports Centers in Anaheim and is a free display open to the public in the Sidelines Café.

  • Foro Italico, 4-8 Settembre 2019
    Foro Italico, 4-8 settembre 2019 Le Fivb Beach Finals al Foro Italico di Roma Il Foro Italico e la Capitale tornano protagonisti del circuito mondiale del beach volley. Dal 4 all’8 settembre, infatti, andranno in scena le Finals del World Tour 2019; ultimo appuntamento della stagione internazionale che vedrà scendere in campo le migliori coppie al mondo. Sulla sabbia capitolina ci saranno in palio fama, gloria, un ricco montepremi e molti, importanti punti validi per il ranking olimpico. Il Foro Italico, riconosciuto universalmente da atleti e addetti ai lavori come una delle migliori location del pianeta, torna dunque alle luci della ribalta a distanza di cinque anni dall’ultimo Grand Slam organizzato nel 2013. Il primo ciclo di joint ventur tra Federazione Italiana Pallavolo e l’allora CONI Servizi SpA diede vita a un quinquennio di grandi eventi tra i quali i Campionati del Mondo del 2011 che sancirono la consacrazione in Italia della disciplina più seguita ai Giochi Olimpici. La rassegna iridata fece registrare numeri importanti in termini di partecipazione di pubblico; un boom che contribuì successivamente all’ingresso della pallavolo nel complesso sportivo italiano (2014 Italia-Polonia e 2015 Italia-Brasile di World League; 2018 l’esordio degli azzurri nei Campionati del Mondo sotto lo sguardo del Presidente della Repubblica) che ha così accolto nella sua lunga storia un numero sempre maggiore di discipline. L’attesa è notevole dunque per un evento che spera di celebrare un grande risultato in termini di pubblico, di seguito e sperando in una affermazione delle coppie italiane che mai sono salite sul gradino più alto del podio a Roma.

  • Beach Volleyball
    Beach Volleyball - John Kessel, USA Volleyball Director of Education, Grassroots, Disabled & Beach Volleyball With Beach Volleyball is a very popular and fast growing sport all over the world. At the same time it is a sport recognized by major international sport associations such as the International Olympic Committee and the International Volleyball Federation. Beach Volleyball is a fun game that can help you accomplish your goals of becoming a world-class athlete. The doubles game can also be played on the grass, using the same portable net systems and rules. In 1996 Beach Volleyball was, for the first time, part of the Olympic Games. 24 Men’s Teams from 19 different nations and 18 Women’s Teams from 13 nations participated in the event. The American Men finished first and second in Atlanta. 1997 the U.S. hosted the 8th Beach Volleyball World Championships at the UCLA Tennis Center. In the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, with 48 teams from 23 nations, the USA team men took home the gold again, while the other men and women’s teams all tied with three 5th place finishes. Beach Volleyball is big! Especially in the United States where the AVP drives a professional volleyball circus bigger than in any other country. USA Volleyball and the California Beach Volleyball Association (CBVA) have hosted thousands of major beach volleyball tournaments.
