Volleyball At The 1964 Summer Olympics – Men's Volleyball Team Squads
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. Typic ...

Joop Alberda
Joop Alberda (born 25 October 1952 in Oosterwolde, Friesland) is a retired volleyball coach from the Netherlands. In 1996, under his directions, the Dutch Men's National Team won the gold medal in Atlanta, Georgia by defeating Italy in the final (3-2). During his time as an active player he played on the highest national level as setter for the teams of Lycurgus and Donitas from the city of Groningen. He found that he had a knack for the training and coaching side of sport in general and Volleyball in particular. A major inspiration in this aspect was Doug Beal, whom he met in 1985. Beal had guided the US national men's team to Olympic gold in the previous year, and his strategic approach appealed greatly to Alberda: controlling every possible detail, leaving nothing to chance. In 1994 Alberda was appointed as head coach of the Dutch national men's volleyball team which had already been under way to international fame. Two years later this led to the gold medal in the 1996 O ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
