NVF conducts CAVB volleyball coaching course

NVF conducts CAVB volleyball coaching course The Namibia Volleyball Federation (NVF), in conjunction with the Confederation of African Volleyball (CAVB), last week hosted a four-day volleyball coaching course in Windhoek.

“The course was conducted by well-known Egyptian coach and instructor Sherif El Shemerly, who has coached the Egyptian national men's team for the Rio Olympics 2016 and other world championships,” said NVF vice-president Hillary Dux Imbuwa.

During the four days, the 20 course participants from different regions of the country were given valuable insights into the nature and role of a coach in volleyball.

The coaching course aimed to challenge the participants by blending practical sessions and the demonstration of techniques and drills with theoretical knowledge to use in the further development of the sport in Namibia.

This approach, according to Imbuwa, gave the participants a well-rounded experience and knowledge of the intricacies of the sport both on and off the court.

He told Nampa in a telephonic interview that each of the participants would receive a CAVB certificate giving them the status of National Level Coaches.

During the closing ceremony on Sunday, the president of the NVF, Günter Rust, congratulated the group on successfully participating in the course.

“He urged them to share their newly learned skills and knowledge and put them to test in their regions and clubs,” stated the NVF vice-president.
