Time to start another one of my rants against the Cev, I guess :d But honestly, this just shows how well they are "promoting" the sport. In men's competition, we had 24 teams participating in qualification three years ago, 20 two years ago, 16 last year and now we're down to 10 :wall: Teams from Greece, the Netherlands clearly don't even care anymore :cry:

Hard to blame them. I mean, CEV having them go through 3 rounds (potentially 6 weeks) of travel and qualification and then giving only 2 of them a chance of playing the real tournament and winning the STUNNING price of 50.000 $ is beyond ridiculous.

:SRB  has been officially confirmed as the first host of the 2021 Women EuroVolley. They will also be the "main" host, as the semifinals and medal games will take place in Belgrade. Allegedly :BUL and :ROU will host the competition as well.

Historic victory for Peru over China in women's junior volleyball WCH

 

It's not historic lol, Perú has beaten China many times in the past in different categories.

 

This Chinese generation seems to be very weak, they lost all friendlies last week and also did very poor in the u18 two years ago. I predict the second place of this pool will finish 8th in overall rankings.

    • In terms of the first table, there were 2 clubs missing that are/could be apart of the Professional/Semi Professional English League system.    The first are the Wigan Warriors (club logo above), they play in Super League (1st Division) and are the defending back to back Super League champions. Not quite sure how I forgot to add them, but somehow I did.    The second are the Bedford Tigers (club logo above). They originally weren't set to join the system from non league but there are strong rumours that they are now set to join League 1 (3rd Division), replacing the aforementioned Cornwall.
