 President of FIVB R. Acosta is speaking about new rules in volleyball. Most important is a proposal to limit foreign players in other National competition.
One of the most important comments in the last weeks was the press release where the FIVB announced the limitation of foreign players on the court in clubs competitions. R. Acosta stated: “We will forward this proposal to our next Board of Administration in March but I would like to stress that our first goal is to protect the young players’ right to play which is the key point: we need to promote local players, who will represent their country in our sport, to reach the court earlier in their career and not to be blocked by players affiliated to other Federations. National identity is reinforced through sports, and the last decision by the European Community in Porto seems to go in our same direction. We don’t want to stop the world’s top players to play in the best Leagues, but we will propose to the Board of Administration to have in each team a maximum of three players affiliated to another National federation, and a maximum of two on the court. In this way, younger players will have more opportunities to play at top level in their own countries side by side with the best players from any country.” What will happen to many volleyball players when the limitation will be accepted? Only top volleyball players will find job in another country. The biggest problem will have players from Brazil. Brazil has more than 500 players abroad, also USA has more than100 players playing outside. from FIVB
