Ah, the Kerala volleyball economy runs on passion and sharp eyes from retired stars turned scouts, who spot raw talent in village tournaments and bring them to clubs with promises of modest salaries and board. But prize money and gate collections? Often more promise than reality, my friend—our winnings in the All-Kerala were delayed by two months! This I saw first-hand, playing for a club in Thrissur last season; the 'gate' barely covered our travel, leaving my own salary stretched thin, just like budgeting for my son's fees back in Assam. So a village player gets spotted, yes, but he must be wary of sweet talk and ask for the money in writing—*bhul* nokoriba, don’t make that mistake.
