also isn't sheila in turkey? I saw her post with gabi Last year Sheilla was a huge draw to viewership from the Brazilian contingent. She had a slow start last year, but finished pretty strong.

how does this compare to the other Vball league that Lloyd and others have been posting about? this is gimmick-y. LOVB wants to try to create a "traditional" league in their long term plan.... I don't think AU has that

In another thread, there were postings very critical (I know, right, on VT?) Of LOVB as being a predatory force for Club volleyball. Apparently they have bought out Munciana, KIVA and some others in an attempt to take over the volleyball world; is it for good, or evil? Anyone?

how does this compare to the other Vball league that Lloyd and others have been posting about? AU actually exists. LOVB is still in the process of buying out clubs, maximizing profits within the clubs, and laying groundwork to start the pro side in 2023 at the earliest.
