Josh 7,050 Posted December 8, 2023 Author #2 Share Posted December 8, 2023 (edited) Pools have just been announced for VNL 2024. As a reminder, the top five unqualified nations in the World Rankings (including an African country, which is pretty much guaranteed to be Kenya as no African nation will be competing in events that’ll add points towards their World Ranking) after the end of the preliminary phase will qualify for Paris. Here’s the countries still in contention: Italy (338.97 pts) China (329.65 pts) Japan (305.09 pts) Netherlands (287.94 pts) Canada (265.66 pts) — Kenya (162.42 pts) China and Italy seem safe to qualify. For Japan, it would take a disastrous VNL for them to fall behind both Netherlands and Canada, don’t see it happening. IMO it’ll be between us and the Netherlands for the final quota. Kenya has pretty much locked up the African quota. Week 1 (May 14-19, 2024) Antalya, Turkey Turkey Italy Poland Japan Germany Netherlands Bulgaria France Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Brazil United States Serbia China Canada Dominican Republic South Korea Thailand Week 2 (May 28- June 2, 2024) Macau, China China Italy Brazil Japan Dominican Republic Netherlands Thailand France Arlington, Texas United States Turkey Poland Serbia Germany Canada Bulgaria South Korea Week 3 (June 11-16, 2024) Hong Kong, China China Turkey Brazil Poland Dominican Republic Germany Thailand Bulgaria TBC, Japan Japan United States Italy Serbia Canada Netherlands France South Korea Edited December 8, 2023 by Josh maestro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelps 7,214 Posted April 16 #6 Share Posted April 16 the 30-woman list announced by the new head coach, Julio Velasco Setters Carlotta Cambi Francesca Bosio Alessia Orro Giulia Gennari Opposite Hitters Sylvia Nwakalor Paola Egonu Camilla Mingardi Ekaterina Antropova Outside Hitters Alice Degradi Caterina Bosetti Elena Pietrini Stella Nervini Myriam Sylla Rebecca Piva Loveth Omoruyi Martina Bracchi Gaia Giovannini Middle Blockers Marina Lubian Linda Nwakalor Anna Danesi Alessia Mazzaro Sara Bonifacio Sarah Fahr Yasmina Akrari Emma Graziani Benedetta Sartori Libero Ilaria Spirito Monica De Gennaro Eleonora Fersino Ilenia Moro some of the illustrious exclusions by Pezz...ehm, Mazzanti from last year are back (Orro, Fahr, Egonu, Bosetti, De Gennaro), but not all those I expected I mean, no Ofelia Malinov while Bosio is still there among the setters, no Folie nor Chirichella among the middle blockers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copravolley 91 Posted April 16 #7 Share Posted April 16 Chirichella was clearly worse at the Novara than Danesi and Bonifacio. The only thing that appealed to her was greater experience. Folie ended her adventure with the national team in 2021 and she probably couldn't be persuaded to come back. Malinov also didn't want to return to the national team, from what I heard. The most important thing is that Fahr on this list- currently the best Italian middle blocker and let her be healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faramir 79 Posted April 16 #8 Share Posted April 16 Folie with her physical issues would have been useless anyway in tournaments where you play many games in a short period of time and with a small roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't follow club volleyball too much, but for what I saw in the Champions League matches of the Vero Volley Milano, Folie should have been taken back to the NT by force...she's been by far the best player and the key to success in CL I know Malinov has personal/mental issues that might let her decide not to comeback, but at least not calling up Bosio after last year should have been a "must" almost like naming Orro, de Gennaro and Egonu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
