Both Dilan Perera and Maj. Gen. Boniface Perera have informed the Volleyball Federation that they have decided to quit their posts due to pressure of work. 

There have been several absentees other than Dilan Perera and Boniface Perera from volleyball meetings. Decisions regarding their presence at meetings are to be taken at the next annual general meeting in June, whether to keep them out and to make new appointments.
