Crazy to see the championship is so near to happening time truly goes by so quickly, thanks for sharing I didn’t know all these countries are attending this year.
Yes, the season has just started but the World Championships are already end of July.
I love watching volleyball during Olympics but don’t really know much about it. I wish more games would be televised as this is a sport that requires a lot of skill and athleticism. Thanks for sharing.
I agree. There is not that much airtime on TV but usually you can find livestreams on the Internet.
