Canada beat Brazil :clap:

Huge victory, we are now less than 3 points from an Olympic qualifying position. We need a couple of good results against Italy (could be a 2-3 loss) and Netherlands.

 

Of course there is still a year of volleyball to go so lots can happen

Don't worry about the match against Netherlands. Canadian women's volleyball team has improved so much, I think their level is far beyond the Netherlands now, especially because we miss our best player this week. A win against Netherlands means a lot of points for Canada. And honestly: they can win against Italy (without Egonu) as well. When you beat Brazil, you can beat every other team in this competition.

 

My prediction is that The Netherlands will have to fight it out with Germany, Belgium and Dominican Republic for the last Olympic spot.

 

And in fact Canada already has passed Belgium, because Belgium lost 3:0 to Sweden :yikes:yesterday in the European League. So Belgium therefore gets about 5 points deducted.

Actually, we're 20.02 points away (And behind GER/DOM). 

 

Host nation quota goes to :FRA

 

Let's say the top 6 qualify through the OQT. :USA:BRA:ITA:SRB:CHN:TUR

 

World rankings prioritize continents not already qualified, so :KEN will most likely qualify (IMO they're the top African nation) then there's four countries qualified by top ranked eligible NOCs. :POL:JPN are almost certainly safe, with :NED:GER currently occupying the final two qualification spots. Germany currently has 253.49 points, but Dominican Republic and Canada are not that far behind with 249.65 and 233.47 points respectively, one or two wins would put us in a great position to be in an Olympic qualifying position.

Maglio- 8 

White- 4

Van Ryk- 3

Howe- 3

Gray- 2

King- 1

 

44 points between Gray (25) and Van Ryk (19) as well.

Why do you care so much about the world ranking now? Don't we still have continentals, olympic qualifiers and a whole other VNL to play before the cut is done? It's like 20 more matches for every team.

for the ranking there just has to be a place for africa? if we have at least one country in each continent (except africa) which qualifies during the OQT?

Yes, Africa has to be represented in each of the volleyball competitions at Paris 2024.
