Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>As part of the Namibia Volleyball Federation (NVF)\u2019s strategic plan, 42 referees are attending a Federation International de Volleyball (FIVB) referee development course at Swakopmund in the Erongo region.<\/p>\n

It will run for two weeks, and is an initiative in line with the NVF\u2019s strategic goals for technical capacity development.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the commencement of the course, NVF president Hilary Dux Imbuwa said the FIVB referee development course marks a significant milestone in the journey of volleyball officiating excellence within Namibia and across the globe.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am excited to see diverse and enthusiastic groups of individuals gathered here, eager to enhance their skills and contribute to the growth and development of volleyball officiating,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

Imbuwa said Namibia currently doesn\u2019t have qualified international referees, and this course will provide room for that.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour presence here signifies the commitment to professionalism, integrity and dedication to sport we all hold dear,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Imbuwa further urged the attendees to approach the course with passion, discipline and a thirst for knowledge.<\/p>\n

\u201cYour dedication to excellence will not only elevate your own capabilities, but also contribute to the overall advancement of volleyball officiating in the country and beyond,\u201d observed the official.<\/p>\n

On her part, NVF\u2019s referees\u2019 coordinator Dina Kasheeta told New Era Sports that the course is a development course, and at the same time a refresher course for the FIVB National Certificate holders.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis course will help develop referees at grassroots level, which is good for the development of volleyball,\u201d stated Kasheeta, adding that the course for international referees is slated for Morocco later this year. The course is conducted by Walled Abdelsamad, who possesses a wealth of knowledge and experience in officiating volleyball.<\/p>\n

The trainees will engage in rigorous training sessions, practical exercises and insightful discussions aimed at refining officiating skills and deepening an understanding of the rules and regulations of the game. Out of 42 referees attending the course, 12 are female.<\/p>\n
