Muscat, Feb 23 -
The experienced national volleyball coach, Shihab al Din al Riyami, affirmed that crowning Al Salam club as champion of the Oman volleyball first division league 2020-21 is based on the proper implementation of the technical and tactical training plan.
The technical director of Al Salam club added that the team depended on the advanced technology applications to perform different training sessions including Data Volley Programme which is classified as one of the top software.
“I have set a clear map for shaping the team and that is according to full implementation of proper scientific ways in training. Also, we are having an experienced coach in the club represented by Tunisian Haitham al Wasalti. We are using different advanced items during the training sessions including speed radars and dedicated devices for other training parts which assist you in identifying the weakness part in the opponent team,” he added.
The international lecturer unveiled that the team’s objective is to dominate all the internal competitions including the top tier league. The Ministry’s Volleyball Shield Championship is the next target and we will face Al Kamil W’al Wafi team again in the semis round.
