THE Zimbabwe Volleyball Association and the Confederation of African Volleyball (CAVB) beach volleyball referees’ course began in Harare yesterday.
ZVA spokesperson Chris Chivinge said the course is meant to improve standards and number of referees in the country.
The course ends tomorrow.
“We’re holding the course in a move to improve the standards and the number of volleyball referees around the country,” said Chivinge.
He said the course was postponed to yesterday because FIVB instructor, Christian Didembourg from Belgium, who was expected in the country a week ago, was delayed in Burundi where he is conducting another referees’ coaching course.
“We expected Didembourg to arrive in the country last week but he communicated that he wasn’t yet done with another class that he’s training in Burundi, so we had no option but to postpone the course,” he said.
Chivinge said they have made arrangements with another instructor from Egypt who is already in the country.
“We made arrangements with Ahab NadarTadres Mekhael from Egypt to come and conduct the course,” said Chivinge.
