Germany reLAUNCHES League!

This is GREAT NEWS for all German players and the fans! Check out the German Volleyball League site, by clicking THIS.

According to this article from the FIVB, the German Federation is relaunching its league with a slogan ” ECHTE MENSCHEN ECHTE STARS” or “REAL PEOPLE REAL STARS!”. WoW! We love and support this project!

They even launched videos featuring Linda Dörendahl, Tesha Harry, Lisa Rühl and Salvador Hidalgo Oliva to support this campaign. “Our stars are human beings just as we are. They deliver something extraordinary at every level and they fully deserve to be presented to the public for what they really are.” DVL President Michael Evers said at the launch.

Check out the vids below: So Cute!

This one is our fave…How come she gets to kiss him in the end? Not Fair! We Kid We Kid!

The DVL has also invited fans to film their own videos showing how the sport helps or affect their daily lives. (We want to join this contest!). The deadline will be on February 15, 2011 and a special jury will decide the winner. Good luck to all the participants!

The article also mentions that the “DVL will showcase two of the league’s players – one male and one female – on a monthly basis, selecting them for not just their performances on court and but also for what they do in their daily lives, so continuing the spirit of this campaign. The aim is to show that Volleyball stars are more than sports people and are often very much involved in social projects or other activities positively affecting people around them. It will afford fans some insight into the private lives of their favourites, including some backstage shots capturing the way they prepare for games and the different rituals they follow.”

WoW! Good luck on this project! Volleywood support this project for the development of volleyball in Germany!
