PSL promises another blockbuster year

THE Philippine Superliga has vowed to give volleyball fans all over the country another outstanding year full of innovations and an entertainment when it enters its fourth season next year.

PSL president Ramon Suzara yesterday said the country’s most prestigious inter-club women’s volleyball league is geared to surpass its achievements in 2015 wherein it made a lot of innovations, including the introduction of the video challenge system. Used in major tournaments worldwide, the video challenge system is a cutting-edge technology that gives coaches the chance to review a call using 25 high-definition cameras installed in strategic locations.

The PSL is the first club league in Asia to use this P3-million apparatus.

“We will pick up where we left off,” said Suzara, also the chairman of development and marketing committee chairman of the Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC), in a statement.

“We will continue to innovate in terms of uniforms, officiating and branding to further increase the level of volleyball in the country.”

Suzara added that they will also work hard to unite all volleyball stakeholders in the country and spearhead the deployment of more teams to various tournaments abroad to help the national federation, the Larong Volleyball sa Pilipinas, Inc. in enhancing the development and progress of the sport.
