Cruzeiro-vs-Sesc
As from the 1992/93 season, the Brazilian volleyball federation (CBV) introduced a rule of the player’s ranking to give all teams who take part in Superliga an equal opportunity, or close to it, to compete for the national title. All teams could have only two players who have a maximum number of points in the ranking list.
But, at a meeting in São Paulo, the representatives of the 10 male clubs whose places in Superliga are guaranteed for the 2018/19, voted to end the controversial regulation from the next season. In simple words, this means only a transfer market will dictate which players will join which clubs.
Interestingly, the women’s Superliga clubs failed to vote the same so, the player’s ranking system will remain in their tournament for the 2018/19.
