Bengaluru, December 4 (IANS): With the world’s finest Volleyball clubs set to congregate in Bengaluru for the Men’s Volleyball Club World Championships 2023 at the Koramangala Indoor Stadium, anticipation is at its zenith for the marquee tournament as fans hope to relive the electric atmosphere of the previously
held Season 2 of the Prime Volleyball League earlier this year.
Proudly making their debut will be the Ahmedabad Defenders, champions of Season 2 of the Prime Volleyball League (PVL), set to represent the nation for the first time in the Men’s Volleyball Club World
Championships 2023. As India continues its rapid ascent in international volleyball, Tom Joseph, an Arjuna Award winner and legend of the game, shared his thoughts on the effect of the Men’s Volleyball Club World Championships 2023 being held in India for the first time.
“I think we will soon be in the top three best teams in Asia. We have improved drastically between the
last two editions of the Asian Games, and we are continuing to get better every day.”
The former Indian Volleyball player further added, “I do believe that we have the best players in Asia across all positions, roles, and skillsets. However, we have lacked international exposure. But this is quickly changing, thanks to the RuPay Prime Volleyball League, and now the Men’s Volleyball Club World Championships 2023 coming to India.” The current coach of the Hyderabad Black Hawks lamented
the lack of opportunities at his disposal when he was a player and reiterated the good fortune of the current crop of Indian volleyball players.
