We were really disappointed when the Vancouver Outgames 2011 came out with their official announcement for this years Outgames NOT SHOWING any Volleyball event.
But when we checked today (thanks to my sister Cedric from Vancouver) there are some MAJOR MAJOR changes with their events and added Volleyball to their roster!
The Vancouver Outgames is from July 25-31 with a guaranteed of 6 games (only?). You can check on the rules and regulations are based on NAGVA ratings but 2 players can play down in each team with the rest of the team playing on their designated rating. The games will be held at Harry Jerome (where the Vancouver NAGVA is held) with AM and PM schedule for all divisions. Pretty small venue for Outgames ut hopefully it all works out.
To get more details, check on the Vancouver Outgames Volleyball 2011 website!
Who wants to play?
Thinking of playing and super excited!

The North American Outgames are a great disappointment. They seem to be behind in updating their web site and getting consistent information out to the public. The Asia Pacific Outgames seems to be a lot more professional with consistent publicity and outreach. Several of the Vancouver2011 board members proportedly have run major sport events in the past. So why is this so poorly run?
North America GLISA seems to be holding a closed bid process already for their 2015 games, perhaps to con some one into the 2015 event before this disaster occurs. It appears that the FGG was right to think the GLISA (atleast North America) were a bunch of amatuers detracting from real sports efforts.
