  • Ya Exhibe Sorpresas La Copa Mundial De Voleibol Para Hombres
    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Ya exhibe sorpresas la Copa Mundial de Voleibol para hombres Entre los resultados inesperados de las dos primeras jornadas del certamen está la victoria de Puerto Rico sobre EE.UU., lo que no ocurría desde hacía 30 años Publicado: Martes 20 noviembre 2007 | 01:19:12 am. Publicado por: Ricardo Quiza Dos jornadas han bastado para que la Copa del Mundo de Voleibol para hombres exhiba sus primeras sorpresas, sinónimo de que el camino resultará bastante complicado para los pronósticos. Los boricuas (izquierda) no le ganaban a Estados Unidos desde 1977. Foto: FIVB El primer resultado inesperado fue la victoria de Puerto Rico sobre Estados Unidos, tres sets por uno, en el segundo cartel efectuado en la ciudad japonesa de Matsumoto. Imagínense que eso no ocurría desde hacía 30 años, en el torneo NORCECA de 1977. Los boricuas, que al cierre marchaban invictos con dos triunfos en el grupo A, al igual que Rusia y Bulgaria, dependieron fundamentalmente de su astro Héctor «Pinky» Soto, quien anotó 29 puntos, secundado por José Rivera (14). Y el éxito tiene mayor envergadura si tomamos en consideración que Estados Unidos reúne en su nómina a siete jugadores con experiencia olímpica: Lloy Ball, Gabriel Gardner, Thomas Hoff, Ryan Millar, William Priddy, Riley Salmon y Clayton Stanley. Es evidente que el entrenador estadounidense, Hugh McCutheon, quiere conseguir ahora uno de los tres boletos en litigio para los Juegos Olímpicos de Beijing 2008, y ya engrasa la maquinaria para la cita estival. Tan en serio va el asunto que el día anterior, fueron los propios estadounidenses los protagonistas de otro resultado poco esperado, aunque no tan insólito, al pulverizar al más prominente conjunto de los últimos años, Brasil, en sets corridos.

  • 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. For nearly a decade, the U.S. Junior Olympic Beach Volleyball Championships have been held for kids in the 18,17,16,15,14,13, and 12 & under age brackets. The International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) will stage the first ever Junior World Championships in the summer of 2001.
