A documentary about volleyball appears live on British TV channel BT Sport – which also broadcasts, among other things, the English Premier League football – once a month. So far, five episodes of the series have been made. Eight more are under construction and will air as originally scheduled – around the third of each month.
The volleyball show – because that is the name of the IBB Polonia London production, which has so far been funded thanks to the support of IBB Builders Merchants and other club partners – tells us about the fate of the team, the challenges the club faces and what it wants to achieve in the future.
While carrying out the entire IBB series, Polonia does not forget its Polish roots and the importance of the strength of this sport in Poland within the organization and in volleyball as a whole. With this in mind, and recognizing the importance of sport in diplomacy, the authorities of IBB Polonia London decided to participate in a competition organized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Poland.
