In total, over twenty top division games were played by elite volleyball athletes using the Good Net.<\/p>\n<p>Launched in March 2019, the Good Net project is a collaboration between the FIVB and Ghost Fishing to recover discarded fishing nets from the world\u2019s oceans, with many to be recycled into volleyball nets for local community use around the world. First used on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, a recycled net was also installed at the FIVB Beach Volleyball World Championships in Hamburg earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Good Net Project - FIVB x Ghost Fishing\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jerLlVV8EjA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Mega Beach is the biggest beach volleyball tournament in the Netherlands. Over the weekend, more than 900 teams (around 2,700 people) took part across 153 different courts. During the weekend\u2019s action, many visitors took an active interest in the Good Net project and it is estimated that more than 8,000 people learned more about the FIVB\u2019s initiative.<\/p>\n<p>A team from Ghost Fishing were present at the event and were impressed with how many volleyball fans wanted to find out more about the initiative.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-44298\" src=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-36.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1275\" height=\"1057\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-36.jpg 1275w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-36-300x249.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-36-768x637.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-36-1024x849.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asianvolleyball.net\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/3-36-600x497.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1275px) 100vw, 1275px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>However, it wasn\u2019t just athletes and spectators at the event that were made aware of the Good Net project.

Good Net is about turning a negative situation into a positive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The FIVB\u2019s Good Net project has also joined the United Nations (UN) Clean Seas campaign in the fight against marine plastic pollution. Future plans include taking a Good Net for fans at the FIVB World Tour Finals in Rome later this month.<\/p>\n<p>For more information and to help remove nets from the ocean, please visit: https:\/\/goodnetproject.com\/EN<\/p>\n<p>Related links of AVC<br \/>\nAVC Website: click www.asianvolleyball.net<br \/>\nAVC Facebook: click www.Facebook.com\/AsianVolleyballConfederation<br \/>\nAVC Twitter: click: https:\/\/twitter.com\/avcvolley<br \/>\nAVC Instagram: click: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/avcvolley\/?hl=en<br \/>\nAVC Youtube: click: Asian Volleyball Confederation<br \/>\nAVC WeChat: Asian Volleyball Confederation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scheveningen, Netherlands, July 19, 2019 &#8211; The Netherlands Volleyball Federation (NEVOBO) used one of the FIVB\u2019s Good Nets on their centre court during the Mega Beach volleyball event in Scheveningen&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":44297,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[97,100,86],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-44296","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-development-news","category-slider","category-volleyball-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
