I just recently completed a short documentary on trying to play professional volleyball in Europe... I hope everyone enjoys, it is presently viewable on a my space group page (you don't have to be on my space to watch it though). I appreciate commentary, criticism, any contribution, I am really just trying to promote the sport of volleyball... I will be filming a women's version towards the end of spring... groups.myspace.com/transworldvolleySeveral times every year a group of athletes set a course for europe in the pursuit of a solitary goal. Scattered about the myriad of worldwide professional volleyball leagues are available contracts, and these athletes arrive ready to fight for them. Set in locations both spectacular and remote, these individuals weather intense training, alien culture and language, fierce competition, all while forging friendships, resuming rivalries, and doing whatever it takes to prolong their athletic careers. Some will party their opportunity away, some will come face to face with the fact they were never good enough, some will get homesick, and a select few will realize their dream....

I usually associate the prefix "Trans-" with the transgender/transvestite underworld. So, when I read the title of this thread -- "Transworld Volley: A Documentary" -- I thought just what I thought I'd think: a documentary about the gay/lesbian/transgender/transvestite volleyball community.

While that may be your scope of reference, Transworld Media is one of the larger alternative magazine companies producing transworld surf, transworld snowboarding, transworld skateboarding, which is actually where my inspiration came from. I have a feeling not everyone had your problem...
