I hope this does not mean that FIVB members are working on some new methods for build rankings. That would be good news, I don't think they can find a method which is worse than the current one.

DaniSRB 896 Posted October 15, 2018 #22 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Imo would be fair to count last OG, WCh and continental championship for NL/EL they previously said that won't count those points so many teams didn't fight 100% (especially EL) But rules they should have published in advance!!!

I always expect worst from FIVB members. It helps me save myself unpleasant surprises I'm just wondering what can be reason to wait with this for publishing women's ranking? Last ranking was published right after Nations League final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunadan 1,103 Posted October 15, 2018 #25 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Nations League is not included in the current ranking, the last update was published after the 2017 World League/GP Edited October 15, 2018 by Dunadan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intoronto 4,077 Posted October 15, 2018 #26 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I like this qualification format. it guarantees the top teams compete. However, I never like using the World Rankings as a method to seed teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More top teams could compete if there first would be continental qualifications and then intercontinental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netherlands will be 6th at the World Rankings after this WCh, Italy will be 7th for sure. Only when the World Cup 2015 doesn't count, there is a chance for multiple European teams qualifying.

Vojthas 947 Posted October 16, 2018 #29 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Is Poland going to be in TOP25 after WCH? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCB 422 Posted October 20, 2018 #30 Share Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) The group classification for the Olympic qualification tournaments is a disaster for the European teams, except for Russia. They can book their tickets to Tokyo in every situation. I took the World Cup 2015, Olympic Games 2016 and the World Championships 2018 into account. There is some confusion if the VNL 2018 will count for the World Rankings. These will be the groups when the VNL doesn't count for the World Rankings (likely):A: SERBIA (1), TURKEY (12), CAMEROON (13), BELGIUM (24) B: CHINA (2), PUERTO RICO (11), GERMANY (14), TRINIDAD (23) C: USA (3), DOMINICAN REPUBLIC (10), BULGARIA (15), KAZACHSTAN (22) D: RUSSIA (4), ARGENTINA (9), THAILAND (16), CUBA (21) E: BRAZIL (5), KOREA (8), KENYA (17), CANADA (20) F: NETHERLANDS (6), ITALY (7), MEXICO (18), AZERBAIJAN (19) These will be the groups when the VNL count for the World Rankings (not likely): A: CHINA (1), PUERTO RICO (12), GERMANY (13), COLOMBIA (24) B: SERBIA (2), TURKEY (11), BULGARIA (14), POLAND (23) C: USA (3), DOMINICAN REPUBLIC (10), THAILAND (15), CUBA (22) D: RUSSIA (4), ARGENTINA (9), CAMEROON (16), CANADA (21) E: BRAZIL (5), KOREA (8), BELGIUM (17), MEXICO (20) F: NETHERLANDS (6), ITALY (7), KENYA (18), AZERBAIJAN (19) Horrible for especially Netherlands. Finishing 4th at both the OG as the WCH and then placed in a group with Italy ... Edited October 20, 2018 by CCB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
