The Tanzania Volleyball Association has initiated a number of tournaments this year in a move to promote the game countrywide.
Deputy Secretary General of the Tanzania Volleyball Association, George John said that the association had decided to focus on competition as the only effective way of promoting the game.
“The game has in recent years lost its popularity, therefore steps are needed to revive it,“ John said.
He said the competitions would involve men`s and woman’s teams from all over Tanzania.
He also said the new arrangement has focused on popularising the game amongst children.
“The idea behind this approach is to build a formidable volleyball team for international competitions,“ said the deputy Secretary General.
