Asnières Volley 92
Asnières Volley 92 is a French volleyball team based in Asnières-sur-Seine, Hauts-de-Seine. The flagship men's team and its affiliates have historically formed one of the most successful organizations in French volleyball, claiming a total of 45 national titles across all age and gender groups as of 2016. The club was defunded by the city of Asnières and pulled out of the second-level Ligue B Masculine during the 2016 offseason. It later resumed its activities in the amateur Nationale 2 (fourth level). History The organization traces its lineage to 1948, when it was founded as the volleyball section of multisports club Asnières Sports. It established itself as one of the country's best, winning five national men's titles between 1965 and 1984. However, following a Coupe de France final appearance in 1986, Asnières Sport declined sharply and went winless in 1988–89, causing it to be relegated. In 1991–92, the club returned to the national elite (then called Pro A) but onl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Volleyball
Volleyball is a team sport in which two teams of six players are separated by a net. Each team tries to score points by grounding a ball on the other team's court under organized rules. It has been a part of the official program of the Summer Olympic Games since Tokyo 1964. Beach volleyball was introduced to the programme at the Atlanta 1996. The adapted version of volleyball at the Summer Paralympic Games is sitting volleyball. The complete set of rules is extensive, but play essentially proceeds as follows: a player on one of the teams begins a 'rally' by serving the ball (tossing or releasing it and then hitting it with a hand or arm), from behind the back boundary line of the court, over the net, and into the receiving team's court. The receiving team must not let the ball be grounded within their court. The team may touch the ball up to three times to return the ball to the other side of the court, but individual players may not touch the ball twice consecutively. ...

Ligue B Masculine
The Catholic League of France (french: Ligue catholique), sometimes referred to by contemporary (and modern) Catholics as the Holy League (), was a major participant in the French Wars of Religion. The League, founded and led by Henry I, Duke of Guise, intended the eradication of Protestantism from Catholic France, as well as the replacement of King Henry III. Pope Sixtus V, Philip II of Spain, and the Jesuits were all supporters of this Catholic party. Origins Local confraternities were initially established by French Catholics to counter the Edict of Beaulieu in 1576. King Henry III placed himself at the head of these associations as a political counter to the ultra-Catholic League of Peronne. Following the repudiation of that edict by the Estates General, most of the local leagues were disbanded. Following the illness and death of Francis, duke of Anjou, heir to the French throne, on 10 June 1584, Catholic nobles gathered at Nancy. In December 1584, the League drew u ...
