Japan has 2 Volleyball leagues ( Premier League and Challenge League )
Premier League is the top of volleyball Leagues in Japan, we also say V-League (10 clubs now)
Challenge League is second League (9 clubs now)
Each team can only contract with ONLY ONE foreign player.

( 2007-08 Result) 2008-09 season is same teams as last year.

( 2007-08 Game system )
Round robin (each 3 times)in regular season. Top 4 team can go to the Final-round.
9th and 10th place team have to 2 matches against 1st and 2nd place of Premier teams.
( Team shuffle games )

( 2008-09 Game system CHANGE )
Next season 2008-09 Game system is going to change!!!!
9th and 10th place 2 teams have to demote from Premier League to Challenge League.
And 7th, 8th place team have to 2 matches against 1st and 2nd place of Premier teams.
So 2008-09 season is very important season for all teams.

Hi there!

Is there a possibility to watch the games in Europe (Germany)?

I've searched (almost ) the whole internet for information about broadcasts here or via internet without any luck.

Hi Widowmaker.

I don't know it possibility.
However the internet broadcast was not last season in Japan.
I think next season too.

that's a great news, Naa, thank you so much for bringing this up.

Japan is my favorite nation team and my most favorite player Logan is playing there i'm excited~ but too bad i'm not able to watch v-league in my country (i'm from Hong Kong)

Naa... any idea about which team Logan is playing for?

V-league games aren't shown so often on TV
If Logan's team games will show on TV, I'll try to record it and upload here.
and...about Logan's team....I would say " STAY TUNED" for the time being now.

thank you Naa...

so, let's stay tuned lol

Hi there!

Thank you two for your answers, although they're very disappointing

Well I'll keep on searching then...maybe there will be a possibility to watch at least some games.

@Naa:

I'll be looking forward to you uploading them, thx in advance

I heard Tayyiba Haneef-Park will play in Japan this season ( 2008-09 )
Can you imagine that Logan vs Tayyiba :lol: I can't wait

oh my god~!!! i'm so excited, i like Tayyiba!! Logan vs Tayyiba... can't wait to see...

Hi Naa!

Thanks for the information, sad news though

I couldn't find streams for these stations so far, but I'm still full of hope so I'll keep on searching

EDIT: Is NHK World the same as NHK-BS1 or are there different NHK channels?
