  • Diese Frauenteams Kämpfen Um Die Meisterschaft: Die Deutschen Top 16 - Meldelistenplatz 1 - 4
    Diese Frauenteams kämpfen um die Meisterschaft: Die Deutschen Top 16 - Meldelistenplatz 1 - 4 1. Sara Goller / Laura Ludwig (Hertha BSC) Sie sind und bleiben unangefochten Deutschlands Nummer 1. Bei den Olympischen Spielen - bei denen sie Fünfte wurden - und beim smart beach tour SuperCup auf Norderney setzten sich die amtierenden Deutschen Meisterinnen gegen Katrin Holtwick und Ilka Semmler durch. Ihr bestes internationales Ergebnis holten sie mit Silber Mitte Juni beim Grand Slam in Rom. Beim „Heim Grand Slam“ in Berlin wurden Goller/Ludwig Neunte. Insgesamt holte das Hauptstadt-Duo so viele Meistertitel, wie noch kein anderes Frauenteam zuvor: vier! 2. Katrin Holtwick / Ilka Semmler (Seaside Beach Club Essen) Früh in der Saison haben Katrin Holtwick und Ilka Semmler die Qualifikation für die Olympischen Spiele perfekt gemacht. Seit 2006 bilden die beiden ein Team und holten 2009 ihren ersten und bislang einzigen Meistertitel. Bei den letzten nationalen Meisterschaften wurden sie Vierte. Auf internationaler Ebene errangen sie als bestes deutsches Team Rang Vier beim smart Grand Slam in Berlin und in Peking. Für Katrin Holtwick ist es die 10. Teilnahme, Ilka Semmler wird zum 8. Mal teilnehmen (ihr Debut gab sie 2004 an der Seite von Sara Goller). 3. Karla Borger / Britta Büthe (MTV Stuttgart) Nicht nur, dass Karla Borger und Britta Büthe bei den letzten Deutschen smart Beach-Volleyball Meisterschaften Rang 3 erspielten, sie haben diese Position auch im zweiten Jahr in Folge in der deutschen Rangliste inne. Zwar machten sie sich bei ihren deutschen Fans rar, doch international zeigten sie wie 2011 ihre Klasse. Das Ziel ist für Britta Büthe klar: „Nachdem es uns letztes Jahr auf dem Treppchen gut gefallen hat, wollen wir natürlich wieder aufs Podium! Wir freuen uns riesig auf viele bekannten Gesichter, Familie und Freunde!“ 4.

  • A Comparison of Rating Systems for Competitive Women's Beach Volleyball
    Statistica Applicata - Italian Journal of Applied Statistics Vol. 30 (2) 233 doi.org/10.26398/IJAS.0030-010 A COMPARISON OF RATING SYSTEMS FOR COMPETITIVE WOMEN’S BEACH VOLLEYBALL Mark E. Glickman1 Department of Statistics, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA Jonathan Hennessy Google, Mountain View, CA, USA Alister Bent Trillium Trading, New York, NY, USA Abstract Women’s beach volleyball became an official Olympic sport in 1996 and continues to attract the participation of amateur and professional female athletes. The most well-known ranking system for women’s beach volleyball is a non-probabilistic method used by the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB) in which points are accumulated based on results in designated competitions. This system produces rankings which, in part, determine qualification to elite events including the Olympics. We investigated the application of several alternative probabilistic rating systems for head-to-head games as an approach to ranking women’s beach volleyball teams. These include the Elo (1978) system, the Glicko (Glickman, 1999) and Glicko-2 (Glickman, 2001) systems, and the Stephenson (Stephenson and Sonas, 2016) system, all of which have close connections to the Bradley- Terry (Bradley and Terry, 1952) model for paired comparisons. Based on the full set of FIVB volleyball competition results over the years 2007-2014, we optimized the parameters for these rating systems based on a predictive validation approach. The probabilistic rating systems produce 2014 end-of-year rankings that lack consistency with the FIVB 2014 rankings. Based on the 2014 rankings for both probabilistic and FIVB systems, we found that match results in 2015 were less predictable using the FIVB system compared to any of the probabilistic systems.

  • NMMU Bio and Achievements
    The Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University (NMMU ) choir, formerly University of Port Elizabeth (UPE) choir, consists of 55 members, both students and alumni, who come from different walks of life. The choir prides itself in being multi-cultural in both membership and the music it performs. Since its inception in 1994 the choir has gained a reputation for its unique ability to successfully interpret both Western and African repertoire and has since become sought after at choral festivals internationally. Between 1994 and 2004, this acclaimed multi-cultural choir enjoyed numerous national and international invitations and successes, performing before President Nelson Mandela, Queen Elizabeth II and participating in the FICU International University Choir Festival, Valencia (Spain), the Centennial Celebrations of Philippines and the Voices International Choir Festival in Trondheim (Norway). In 2000 the Choir featured in a film based on the life of Nelson Mandela commissioned by Norway and filmed on Robben Island. In 2007 the NMMU Choir performed in Jacksonville, Florida (a Port Elizabeth sister city) as well as with Chicago Children’s Choir and the Lyric Opera Orchestra at the Civic Theatre, Chicago, for the world premiere of Windy City Songs by South African composer Péter Louis van Dijk. They also performed at the Ravinia Festival (Chicago) and in Hyde Park (New York State). In 2008 the choir performed Vivaldi’s Gloria and Van Dijk’s Windy City Songs with both the Cape Philharmonic Orchestra (Cape Town) and the Eastern Cape Philharmonic Orchestra (Port Elizabeth) under the baton of Péter Louis van Dijk. The choir won the 2009 choir competition in Spittal-an-der-Drau, Austria and was highly acclaimed by all who attended.
