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. -

FIVB Beach Volleyball Swatch World Tour Smart Grand Slam - Rome 2012
FIVB Beach Volleyball Swatch World Tour smart Grand Slam - Rome 2012 A Roma i grandi campioni del beach volley mondiale Torna a Roma il grande beach volley internazionale. Dopo l’incredibile successo dei Campionati del Mondo dello scorso anno, quando 10 mila spettatori hanno gremito gli spalti del campo centrale per assistere alle finali, la Capitale è pronta ad accogliere i più forti giocatori del grande circo sulla sabbia impegnati nello FIVB Beach Volleyball Swatch World Tour smart Grand Slam - Rome 2012. Quella che si terrà nel Parco del Foro Italico, dal 12 al 17 giugno, sarà una delle tappe principali della stagione, l’ottavo appuntamento del World Tour 2012 dopo Brasilia, Sanya, Myslowice, Shanghai, Pechino, Praga, Mosca e il quarto degli otto Grand Slam in programma quest’anno cui seguiranno quelli di Gstaad, Berlino, Klagenfurt e Stare Jablonki. Un torneo maschile e femminile con un montepremi complessivo di 600mila dollari, una vera e propria parata di stelle con 171 formazioni iscritte provenienti da 34 diversi Paesi, comprese tutte quelle che occupano i primi posti del ranking olimpico. Tra i beachers che solcheranno la sabbia del Foro Italico ci saranno le due coppie brasiliane che hanno trionfato proprio a Roma nella rassegna iridata dello scorso anno: Alison-Emanuel nel tabellone maschile e Larissa –Juliana in quello femminile. Insieme a loro tanti altri fuoriclasse come gli olimpionici Rogers-Dalhausser (vincitori nello Slam capitolino di due anni fa) e le connazionali May Treanor-Walsh, anche loro medaglia d’oro ai Giochi di Pechino del 2008. Tra le donne molta attesa per le forti cinesi Xue-Zhang, le tedesche Goller-Ludwig, le olandesi campionesse continentali in carica Keizer-Van Iersel e ancora le atlete a stelle e strisce Kessy-Ross che trionfarono proprio nella Capitale nello Slam del 2010. -
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. -
