Also the Ideologies associated with him, as Federalism and Liberalism, even a last one centred on his figure called Artiguism, are clearly represented in this stamp. Finally, by his great labour in the Uruguayan Army, Militariais another topic directly associated with this issue.

Then, the desing of the Issue is very simple so only the Portraittype of Painting Art Topic is added, as all the stamps from the Permanent Series will have the portrait with a Close-upof the Face of José Gervasio Artigas performed by the Artist Miguel Angel Tuala, based in the work "Artigas en la Ciudadela", an Oil Painting of one of the most worldwide known Uruguayan Painters as it is Juan Manual Blanes.

TOPIC STUDY - #0002 - VOLLEYBALL SPORT - URUGUAY

Volleyball Sport - Uruguay( Previous/ Next)

*** There is an updated version of this Study Here***

Topic Description:

Volleyballis a Team Sport in which two teams of six players are separated by a net. Each team tries to score points by grounding a ball on the other team's court under organized rules. It has been Part of the official program of the Summer Olympic Games since Tokio 1964 Olympic Games.

The complete rules are extensive. But simply, play proceeds as follows: a player on one of the teamsbegins a 'rally' by serving the ball(tossing or releasing it and then hittingit with a hand or arm), from behind the back boundary line of the court, over the net, and into the receiving team's court. The receiving team must not let the ball be grounded within their court. The team may touch the ball up to 3 times butindividual players may not touch the ball twice consecutively. Typically, the first two touches are used to set up for an attack, an attempt to direct the ball back over the net in such a way that the serving team is unable to prevent it from being grounded in their court.

The rally continues, with each team allowed as many as three consecutive touches, until either (1): a team makes a kill, grounding the ball on the opponent's court and winning the rally; or (2): a team commits a fault and loses the rally. The team that wins the rally is awarded a point, and serves the ball to start the next rally. A few of the most common faults include: causing the ball to touch the ground or floor outside the opponents' court or without first passing over the net;catching and throwing the ball; double hit: two consecutive contacts with the ball made by the same player; four consecutive contacts with the ball made by the same team; net foul: touching the net during play; foot fault: the foot crosses over the boundary line when serving.

The ball is usually played with the hands or arms, but players can legally strike or push (short contact) the ball with any part of the body.

A number of consistent techniques have evolved in Volleyball, including spiking and blocking(because these plays are made above the top of the net, the vertical jump is an athletic skill emphasized in the sport) as well as passing, setting, and specialized player positionsand offensiveand defensivestructures.

Brief Description of Releases:

Only a few Releases on VolleyballSportTopic were released by the Uruguayan Post Office, being precisely, only Six Releases were issueduntil now, being Four of them, with VolleyballSport as Main Topic, then Onehaving a Major Reference in the Design, and the another One having a Minor Reference in the Design.

The First Uruguayan Release related to the Volleyball Sport Topic was issued on April 4th of 1969, and was about the Volleyball World Cup Uruguay 1969, that was held in Montevideo on April of 1969. Then, in a similar way, it was issued on July 11th of 1974 a Release about another Volleyball World Cupthis time the First FIVB Women Volleyball World Cup Uruguay 1973, that was held in Uruguayfrom October 19th to October 28th of 1973.

After that, almost a quarter of century passed by until another issue related VolleyballSportTopic was released by the Uruguayan Post Office, and it was just a Major Reference in the Design, in a release about the Festival of Childhood and Youth Juvenalia '98 issued on October 30th of 1998, in which the design was two Handshititng a Ball, clearly in the way that most Volleyballhits are done.

Then, another long gap in releases about Volleyball Sport occurs until, on May 5th of 2014 a Release about the Centenary of the University Sport League shows only a Minor Reference in the Design to this Sport, showing a Volleyball Ball in it design, because one of the Sports included in the University Sport Leaguewas Volleyball. Then, only less than a year after, in year 2015, two more releases in less than a month were issued, both celebrating the Centenary of the Uruguayan Volleyball Federation. The first, issued on March 18th of 2015 consists of one of the stamps of a Sport Series that celebrates the Centenaries of Both Basketball and Volleyball Uruguayan Federations, and then on April 7th of 2015, a Special Postmarkwas released celebrating the Centenary of the Uruguayan Volleyball Federation in particular.
