The Philippines and Japan forged a partnership in a bid to boost both volleyball programs in the future.
The Philippine National Volleyball Federation on Friday said it has forged stronger ties with the Japan Volleyball Association (JVA) with PNVF president Ramon “Tats” Suzara meeting his Japanese counterpart Shunichi Kawai in the ongoing Week 3 of the Volleyball Nations League (VNL) in Osaka.
“This is a positive development for Philippine volleyball as the JVA committed to support our national team program,” said Suzara in a statement.
The partnership will include, among others, JVA’s support to the Philippine national team program for both the indoor and beach volleyball through a training camp in Japan.
PNVF said the beach volleyball teams are set to hold a training camp at the Toyota Center.
The collaboration will also include PNVF’s support in promoting Japan’s men’s national team campaign in the VNL and the conduct of friendly matches or tournaments.
The partnership came just a week after PNVF’s successful hosting of the Week 2 of VNL at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City.
