AVC Beach Volleyball Technical & Refereeing Seminar

Dear President,

The AVC is undergoing a rapid increase in the number of beach volleyball tournaments it runs each year. In order to catch up with the rapid development of World Beach Volleyball, AVC is going to organize several beach volleyball seminars in 2011 to train our supervisors, referees and experienced players so as to enable them more knowledge and experience. The first seminar will be organized in Thailand on 14-16 January 2011 that will cover three basic areas: General generic areas between all Supervisors (Technical and Refereeing), Technical (Competition systems, court assignment, BVIS, Continental Cup organization etc) and Refereeing (Evaluation, Observation etc). This provides all participants the opportunity in approaching the knowledge and experience at AVC Continental Cup and Beach Tour level.

Since this seminar will study aspects of running both AVC Tour events and Continental Cup requirements, we hope your federation send one person with experience in running beach volleyball tournaments at a national or international level but who needs more knowledge / experience. The course will be instructed by the best available AVC instructors.
