Three-time senior National volleyball gold medallist, G.V. Madhav felt it is time for some drastic revival measures for the sport in Telangana.
“With the Prime Volleyball League being held in the city, most of us (former volleyballers) feel, there should be a serious effort to bring back the glory when the then united Andhra Pradesh was such a dominant force in volleyball across India,” Madhav — who was a contemporary of the likes of Abdul Basith, P.V. Ramana, Manoj Reddy, S. Venkatnarayana, Srikanth Reddy from the State — said in a chat with The Hindu.
“The PVL is no doubt a terrific concept aimed at popularising the sport and benefitting the players too. But there is a need to ensure a tournament structure at the State-level,” he said.
