Second stringer na nga ang pinadala nila dominating parin kahit papano ang team. I just love Angela Pressey, ang liit-liit pero sobrang taas tumalon. Very Cuban ang laro nya. |

From FIVB:
18 teams to battle for Asian glory and single ticket to World Grand Champions Cup
Manila, The Philippines, September 21, 2009 — The 15th edition of the Asian Men’s Volleyball Championship will take place from September 26 to October 5 in Manila, the beautiful capital city of the Philippines. A total of 18 teams will challenge for a place on the podium.
The participating teams in the biennial continental tournament will compete not only for regional top honors but also for the single ticket available to the FIVB World Grand Champions Cup in Japan in November.
The 18 teams are the Philippines, defending champion Australia, Japan, Korea, China, Iran, Thailand, Indonesia, Chinese Taipei, India, Kazakhstan, Qatar, Lebanon, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Maldives, Hong Kong and Myanmar.
This edition of the tournament is expected to be the toughest one so far as there are at least five teams with an equal chance to reach the summit.
Among the participating teams, World No. 11 Japan has stamped its supremacy at the tournament, taking a total of six titles in the past 14 editions. They recently defeated their archrival Korea 3-0 and Iran 3-1 in the final round of Asian qualifying for the 2010 World Championship. With these successes, Japan is considered the team to beat and favorite to add another trophy to their huge collection.
However, Japan’s task will be tough as Asian teams become stronger and stronger, especially China, Australia, Korea and Iran.
World No. 8 China, while only collected three gold medals in 1979, 1997 and 1999, have been making impressive progress in recent years. Vowing to employ a fast game with various tactics, China comes into the Championship riding high after a fifth-place finish at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the team’s best ever showing and a good performance in the 2009 World League with three wins over Olympic title holder USA, Italy and the Netherlands. They also crushed Australia 3-1 in the Asian qualification tournament for the 2010 FIVB World Championship.
Team China started their final preparations for the tournament at the end of August. “We are going to try our utmost to regain the champion we lost ten years ago,” said Chinese head coach Zhou Jian’an.
Australia became the first team in the history of the championship to break the medal domination of three Asian titans — Japan, Korea and China — in more than 30 years when they won the continental championship in 2007. Australia has now progressed up the world ranking from 24th to a fantastic 15th in just one year.
In order to defend their hard-won title, team Australia has been making extensive preparations with tours to North American and Europe earlier this year.
Iran’s only success at the tournament was a bronze medal in 2003. But the Iranian team may play the role of dark horse, putting real pressure on the other hot favorites. Team Iran beat Japan 3-1, China 3-2, and Korea in the final to win the first Asian Men’s Cup in September 2008. Iran pulled out a big upset by edging Korea in a five-set thriller in the qualification tournament this August to earn the ticket to the FIVB World Championship for the first time. Iran is certainly a team to be reckoned with.
Korea, led by hard-attacking Moon Sung-min, one of the best players in Asia, remains a strong candidate for the crown. The team won the Asian title for the first time in 1989 and then repeated their glories in 1993, 2001 and 2003. With the exception of 1997, Korea has finished inside the top three in the past 14 editions. The Korean players are famous for their fighting spirit and never-give-up determination.
Though the results of the Korean Men’s National Volleyball Team have fallen short of expectations, there is a belief that the team is moving in the right direction thanks to continued competition against some of the world’s top teams. In the 2009 World League, Korea beat Argentina twice and Serbia once.
The 18 teams are drawn into four pools. The Philippines, Chinese Taipei, Kazakhstan and Myanmar are in Pool A, while Pool B comprises six-time title holder Japan, Thailand, India and Indonesia. China will play Iran, Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Hong Kong in Pool C, with defending champion Australia, Korea, Lebanon, Qatar and Maldives testing their mettle in Pool D.
After the single round-robin preliminaries from September 26-30, the top two squads from each pool will advance to the elite Pool E and Pool F, where the teams will again compete in a round-robin format, taking into account the fact that the results of the matches already played in the previous pools will be counted toward their pool rankings.
The remaining 10 teams who finish third to fifth in the four first-round pools will be relegated to the 9th to 18th classification round.
The quarterfinals will take place on October 3, with semifinals on October 4 and the finals on the following day.
Pool A: Philippines, Chinese Taipei, Kazakhstan, Myanmar
Pool B: Japan, India, Indonesia, Thailand
Pool C: China, Iran, Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Hong Kong
Pool D: Australia, Korea, Lebanon, Qatar, Maldives

From FIVB site:
Onuma a force to be reckoned with
Onuma takes to the air during this summer's World Grand Prix
Bangkok, Thailand, October 7, 2009 – Talented Onuma Sittirak is a key player for Thailand’s National Volleyball Team, who has already reached stardom following her brilliant performance at the recent 15th Asian Senior Women’s Volleyball Championship in Hanoi, Vietnam, which won her the Most Valuable Player Award.
Onuma, who is now in her second season at Zeiler Koniz Club in Switzerland, shone with her exceptional skills in the Asian meet, particularly her powerful jump serves and lightning-fast spikes. For her splendid performance, Onuma received a great round of applause from the large crowd assembled at the Quan Ngua Competition Hall.
In a heart-pounding, hard-fought finale against China, the FIVB World No. 3 and 11-time Asian champions, Thailand relied on a strong trio of spiking machines – Wilavan Apinyapong, Malika Kanthong and Onuma.
The 23-year-old Onuma, who stands just 175cm tall and weighs 70kg, became an unforgettable nightmare for the Chinese blockers when she tore their defense into shreds with her devastating spikes. She led the Thai squad with 22 crucial points, including 19 kills, as Thailand went on to win their first continental crown on September 13.
“I never thought that our team could win the championship. For Thailand, whose average height is just 176cm against China’s 185cm, to make it to the final was already a terrific accomplishment beyond our initial expectations,” said Onuma, the lone player from Nakhon Si Thammarat, a southern province of Thailand.
“Following the 3-1 win over China, I was so surprised and could not believe my eyes. To be frank, I have always told myself China is unbeatable. The Chinese have all the elements needed to win the championship. Their players are tall and very experienced. However, after we studied their tapes, we all decided that it was not an impossible mission to beat them.
“Our head coach Kiattipong (Radchatagriengkai) and the other staff planned brainstorming strategies to cope with the Chinese tactics. We learned quickly what our coaches wanted us to do. We played consistently, attempting to refrain from making any hasty mistakes. When we led China 2-1 in sets, I think all the pressure then went to the Chinese.
“However, despite the fact that we beat China to be crowned Asian champions for the first time ever, we can’t stop training. The teams we beat, including Japan, Kazakhstan and China, will go back and learn what went wrong for them. They will come back much stronger next time to avenge us. Therefore, we must be ready for it. Also, we must train much harder and gain more experience and exposure from international competitions.
“I don’t think that our surprise win over China in the final of the Asian meet was a fluke. The Chinese might not have been at their best at that time, while we played every part of our game well. We played without pressure. We played with nothing to lose. That’s what helped us win.
“As for the FIVB World Grand Champions Cup, I think it’s still too early to set a target. What I have learned so far is that all the participating teams are very strong. If we can win even a single match we can consider it a success. I hope my teammates will join hands again to play our best in the championship. Our coaching staff told us we are not the best team. We still need to learn more and climb to a spot where many of the world’s top teams are now standing. It’s not an easy mission, but one thing I know is that everyone on my team will try her best to make such a dream come true one day in the near future.”
Onuma started playing Volleyball when she was 10. Earlier, she was a 100m and 200m sprinter in her school’s track and field team. “I changed from running to Volleyball just because I wanted to travel to the other provinces. I thought at that time if I became a Volleyball player, I could accompany my team to compete in school tournaments in many provinces.”
Onuma joined the Thai National Team for the first time in the 2006 Asian Games in Doha, Qatar, where they finished fourth to eventual winners China, runners-up Japan and bronze-medalists Chinese Taipei.
