Prime Volleyball League gives us a chance to become popular – Bengaluru Torpedoes’ Rohith

Bengaluru Torpedoes’ player P Rohith admitted that volleyball players aren’t famous in India and Prime Volleyball League can give them a platform to become popular.

PVL matches are being telecasted on Sony Ten Network and Rohith is hopeful that they can get recognition from the masses.

Bengaluru Torpedoes will begin their Prime Volleyball League campaign against Kochi Blue Spikers on Tuesday at the Gachibowli Indoor Stadium, Hyderabad. Rohith feels his team can put decent performances in the league.

“Our team has been practicing together for a while and we have a good mix of experience and youth in our side. We have the team to put up good performances in the tournament,” Rohith said before the game on Monday.

“Volleyball isn’t as popular as cricket in India and volleyball players aren’t that famous. With the Prime Volleyball League being broadcast on television, the audience can see us in action and start to recognize who we are. That way we have a chance to become popular. We are hoping to become famous players one day,” he hoped.

Meanwhile, Rohith revealed that his shoe size is 13 but he had to wear 12 size as the former is not easily available in India. He added that he got himself 13 size shoes when he traveled abroad for tournaments.

“My shoe size is 13, but I had to wear shoes of size 12 for a long time because that was the highest shoe size available in India. I didn’t know that there were shoes of size 13 as well for a long time.”

He added: “After I started working for Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited, I started asking my friends who lived abroad to send shoes of size 13 to me here. And whenever I travel abroad for tournaments, I buy four to five pairs of shoes not just for myself, but for a few other players as well,” he added.

Rohith will look to play a key role in his team’s success and help his side in getting off to a good start.
