The local volleyball governing body (FRVB) has set October 28-31 as the tentative dates for the playoffs of the 2019/20 national volleyball league. The league was initially scheduled to resume in September but the plan was halted as the country experienced a new upsurge of Covid-19 cases. Just like it has been for a number of sports in the country, the volleyball league was halted in March as the government enforced strict physical distancing and other measures to curb the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. Now, as the country braces for the return of competitive sports, FRVB has put out its own tentative dates for the return of action. According to a statement released by the FRVB on Monday, the resumption will have a number of measures to be followed; among which each team must show the names of 17 players and officials who will be used during the competition so they can first be tested for Covid-19. The teams participating in the short tournament will enter camp on October 26 and will not be allowed to leave until the season is over on October 31.
