The Women’s South American Volleyball Championship began today. Venezuela is Peru’s first rival in Group A, which they also share with Colombia and Paraguay. Only two will advance to the semifinals and despite who gets upset, they will have to fight for the win from the start.

Once again, Peru arrives at the tournament with Frankenstein complex. Although this is a tournament of the adult category, for this 2015 Women’s South American Volleyball Championship only five players belong to the women’s team (Uribe, Yllescas, Egoavil, Muñoz and Olemar).

The other nine belong to U18 (Regalado, De la Peña, Guerrero and Sánchez)or U20 (Leyva, Gómez, Canessa and Almeida). With the limited selection of volleyball players, the coaches of all categories will have to learn how to face the reality of national volleyball (specially, the adult category).
