World Volley F É D É R A T I O N I N T E R N A T I O N A L E DE VOLLEYBALL Working together for continued success Official Bulletin No. October 008 Edition in English News World League Council selects Argentina, Netherlands to replace Spain, Egypt in 09 The FIVB World League Council at its annual meeting chose Argentina and the Netherlands to replace Spain and Egypt in the 009 edition of FIVB s flagship annual Men s Volleyball tournament after the latter two national teams were ruled to have the lowest attendance record among the 008 participants. Mr. Jizhong Wei, FIVB President A T the end of the first month of my four-year mandate as FIVB President, I believe that in taking our organisation forward it is imperative the responsibilities of overseeing the administrative duties of the FIVB are shared among the members of the Executive Committee. Indeed, I am expanding on the maxim that two minds are better than one and charging each member of the Executive Committee with the task of using their knowledge and expertise to manage the different FIVB Commissions, Councils and activities. First Executive Vice President Cristóbal Marte Hoffiz will assist me in administrative duties of FIVB marketing matters, Television and New Media, Press and Legal Commission and finance matters with André Meyer (who will also oversee the Referees and Rules Commissions) and Sivanthi Adityan. Second Executive Vice President Theofanis Tsiokris will assist with the Sports Event Department, helped by Habu Ahmed Gumel. Ary Graça will assist on Beach Volleyball matters with Vicente Araujo (also Development Commission President), Aleksandar Boricic will help with Technical and Coaching Commissions, Dr. Amr M. Elwani with Medical Commissions, Rita Subowo with the International Olympic Committee relationship and Dr. Saleh Ahmad Bin Nasser with political matters. Francesco Franchi and Masao Tachiki will follow up all the administrative duties of the World League and World Grand Prix Councils in their roles as Council Presidents. I am sure that working together in this way will ensure the continued success of the FIVB. Mr. Jizhong Wei, FIVB President In accordance with a decision made at the 007 FIVB World League Council meeting approved by the Board of Administration, countries with a poor attendance record are liable to be replaced by other national teams wishing to take part in the World League.
