These measures are designed to inform, guide and assist the global Volleyball Family in mitigating the risk to all participants in the planning and delivery of volleyball and beach volleyball events amid COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, the guidelines stress the importance of rigorous planning in cooperation with local health authorities and medical experts prior to and during an event, especially when considering fan attendance. This includes reviewing the necessary social distancing protocols at competition venues and training facilities and implementing meticulous sanitisation measures, both in the venue and on court. Meanwhile, participating teams are advised to establish a consistent COVID-19 testing plan and minimise physical contact between rallies.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, specific guidelines are provided for technical officials, such as sanitising the ball between rallies, ensuring that opposing teams are adequately distanced when changing ends after each set and eliminating the handshake before and after matches.<\/p>\n<p>The return to volleyball COVID-19 safety guidelines for Continental Confederations,National Federations and National Leagues can be downloaded at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fivb.com\/-\/media\/2020\/fivb corporate\/volleyball\/retour guideline\/fivb return to volleyball guidelines covid-19_final.pdf?la=en&amp;hash=47F66792D10FE4F3594A78366F6F7D99\">https:\/\/www.fivb.com\/-\/media\/2020\/fivb corporate\/volleyball\/retour guideline\/fivb return to volleyball guidelines covid-19_final.pdf?la=en&amp;hash=47F66792D10FE4F3594A78366F6F7D99<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The return to beach volleyball COVID-19 safety guidelines for Continental Confederations,National Federations\u00a0 and event organisers can be downloaded at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fivb.com\/-\/media\/2020\/fivb corporate\/beach volley\/retourn guidelines\/fivb return to beach volleyball guidelines covid-19_final_clean version.pdf?la=en&amp;hash=06BEF4A42952FB164CDFAA15A449FE58\">https:\/\/www.fivb.com\/-\/media\/2020\/fivb corporate\/beach volley\/retourn guidelines\/fivb return to beach volleyball guidelines covid-19_final_clean version.pdf?la=en&amp;hash=06BEF4A42952FB164CDFAA15A449FE58<\/a><\/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>Lausanne, Switzerland, August 7, 2020 \u2013 The FIVB Medical Commission, has developed guidelines to help Continental Confederations, National Federations and National Leagues create a safe environment to restart volleyball and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":53614,"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":[83,88,100,86],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-53613","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-avc-news","category-beach-volleyball-news","category-slider","category-volleyball-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
